If you have already caught this year’s best movie (to date), The LEGO Batman Movie, you would have noticed how influential Batgirl is to Batman and the Bat Family. Considering the Dark Knight’s grouchiness and Robin’s hyper-enthusiasm, having someone “moderate” like Batgirl (and sometimes Alfred) sure does keep things in perspective.
Anyway, with the focus and hype constantly on Batman (always be Batman!), we should also spare a thought for others in the Bat Family, especially Batgirl, who celebrates her 50th birthday this year! Hence, we are dedicating this week to Batgirl – her highs, her lows, and her alter egos.
