did anyone pick up Oracles issue?

Didn't mind the shower scene, but the part regarding Babbage was pure plot induced retardation of character. Too bad Babs is made into horrible jobber recently to make that crap of a character called Calculator look good.

I've started to hate BoP beginning from circa issue 122 and then it just went to its downfall. My favourite DC character (Barbara Gordon) is in pretty shitty state now.

Series is moving along ok

Good thread Young Jedi

There are several rumors that she may become Batgirl again?

Just as much as she'll kick the bucket. Recent year or two was the total ruining of the character as Oracle, and to be frankly, becoming Batgirl again when you're from 25 to 28 years old (going by what Morrison stated about the ages of Batman and Nightwing and knowing Babs is 4 years older than Dick) is pretty stupid.

The only other person with "Girl" in her name of apr. that age is Power Girl, who is honestly known for being just flying boobs. Being established as the smartest woman in DCU and suddenly starting to call herself Batgirl...makes little sence.

On the other hand, recently (in Spy Smasher arc) it was shown that Babs takes Batgirl as much of a self-indentity as her birthname, while Oracle persona, which is voiceless and faceless, is like her job.

In fact, recent arcs, being as much of BS as possible, show her losing confidence due to having Oracle\Barbara Gordon personas collide.

It would be cool if they pulled off Dick actually being a good batman for a change and everyone actually liked the way he was written lol.

If everyone holds onto their guns from wanting Bruce back straight away or the raving fanboys dont start a campaing like Hal and Barry style this good end up pretty good with a whole new slant on things.

LOL @ Bruce who would be sidelined to a role like in Batman Of The Future cartoon series in his own comic as well.

Yep it does... If Dick IS the new Batman how long do you think he will last this time around?

For as long as Bruce is away from the present continuity ✅

I agree with you on that.. I will always like Dock Grayson, but Batman will always be Bruce Wayne
