i will never understand why weāre always on the first batgirl. or why babs always has to be batgirl because sheās the most āwell-knownā (which iāve seen cited as a reason for babsgirlās return in n52). dick grayson is the first and most well-known robin but he gets to grow the fuck up and move on. jason gets to be red hood. even tim sometimes gets to grow up to make room for dami!robin. but babs can never be oracle and cass/steph can never be the only/main batgirl becauseā¦? because having disabled superheroes is too far? because having more than 1-2 women in the batfamily is too much work? itās such bullshit i canāt believe dc keeps getting away with it and people keep defending it
#barbara gordon#dc critical#wank for ts#iām probably preaching to the choir here but jfc#i donāt understand the ābut tkj was badā argument either like yāall know that there are other ways to become disabled right??#not to mention magically fixing her disability doesnātā¦actually fix anything about tkjā¦ but anyways#ableism mention tw#this is mainly about adaptations but also main comics continuity#i know stephcass recently got to be batgirls again which is great but it still feels like the babsgirl show#and i donāt want discount oracle whoās still an acrobat i want REAL oracle back
