DC Women Kicking Ass: Kick ass artists of kick ass women: Round 4
Adam Hughes was the winner of favorite Zatanna artist by a wide margin. Congratulations were extended last evening. Today we have voting for Barbara Gordon as Batgirl.
Once again we have a long list of artists nominated and because I have been asked, nicely, I will provide some context.
Carmine…
I love me some Gil Kane, and Infantino obviously designed her look, but Martin did the best Batgirl story. I also really like Bruce Timm, and all the DCAU artists like Mike Parobeck (RIP), Rick Burchett, Ty Templeton, et al. (After previewing, I see none of the art is “above the cut”. Click through!)
Kick ass tournament: Round 2, Match 8
This is it, the final match of this round. The winner one of this goes to the semifinals. Today we have two women brought to you by the letter “B”
B is for bad ass and brassy and
bullets, bleeding and BIG!
Barda!
And in the other corner
B is for brilliant and brave and
Batgirl and books and
Barbara Gordon!
Voting is open until 8PM EDT.
You know the rules.
This was a tough one.

At the DC panel at Fan Expo, Eddie Berganza brought up Barbara Gordon as an example…
…argh.
I hate gifs but I love this.

DC Women Kicking Ass: Retailer FAQ reveals transition of Barbara Gordon to Batgirl
Bleeding Cool got a hold of the FAQ that DC prepared and sent to retailers who couldn’t get to their road show. And let’s just get to the most interesting tidbit:
* Does The New 52 undo events or continuity that I’ve been reading?
Some yes, some no. But many of the great stories remain….
Feh, I say!
