Barbara Gordon

Who do you think Would be a good Pick for Batgirl's Boyfriend? (Excluding Nightwing)

I genuinely am curious about why this pairing seems to be universally despised. There could be something I’m missing, but both of them have MAJOR shared trauma from the Joker, arguably the most of any main characters from DC. I feel like a natural bonding over this shared experience could very realistically lead into romantic feelings for one another.

I’m trying to not sound ignorant for not hating the idea like many others, but I acknowledge there could be something that I’m not putting together in my mind that makes this relationship worse than I realize. Thoughts? Is it just the way the pairing came to be and the writing? Or no matter what, is it a bad idea?

How many women have tookin the mantle if Batgirl in the prime universe?

Barbara tells a story of her, Jason and Bruce working together against Mad Hatter. So that means she was still Batgirl when Dick left Gotham because she says Bruce recruited Jason a week after he left. Does that mean when Barbara was crippled by the Joker, Dick didn't go to see her? If he did then he would have found out about Jason right? But he met Jason in season 1 and not before it

It could be that in the story Barbara was Oracle. So does that mean she didn't leave Bruce after she was crippled? The way she disapproves of Bruce taking in assistants and hurting them makes me think she would have started hating being there with him after she was crippled.

Which one do you think is true?

Picture this

There's a knock at the door and Jim opens the door instead of Barbara and the Joker shoots Jim instead of Barbara

Joker: I was kinda hoping your daughter would open the door but this will do.

What if Joker shot Jim instead of Barbara. What would happen. Would Batman have finally killed the Joker?

):-)

Remember there is always madness.

Warner Brothers has found it’s Batgirl under the name of Leslie Grace most famously known for her role in a Musical Drama called “In the Heights” who will play Barbara Gordon. The movie will release exclusively on HBO Max

I'd love a League of Batgirls book! With Babs as mission control, Bette as the team medic and a field agent as well as Cass and Steph being on the ground.

In the killing joke Barbara gets shot by joker resulting in her being paralysed and being confined to a wheelchair, causing her to give up on being Batgirl and becoming Oracle. But did she ever get revenge for what joker did to her?

Legit, they way it's set up makes it seem like the Joker raped her. Like, Joker... UNDRESSED her in BOTH adaptations, had her full nude, once again in both adaptations. I just wanna know if that's been confirmed or not, but if it was... Just... What in the name of hell?
