Larson's winning streak on Batgirl concludes with a more internal, darker insight into Barbara Gordon but still maintains its fun, flamboyant tone.

As much as I love Batgirl, I have not been a fan of this run. The stories seem jumbled and not remotely connected. You have to go into this as if you are reading a number of completely standalone tales (or maybe a couple of part one and part two stories), otherwise, it will be confusing and not enjoyable. There are a few holiday-themed tales and an interesting one where Batgirl works with her father - but overall there weren't any that were particularly memorable.

Can you go wrong when Dick Grayson shows up without a shirt on? But seriously I will miss Hope Larson's writing on the series. She captured a lot of what I love about Barbara Gordon, her conflict between her roles as Batgirl, tech genius, a cop's daughter and friend. And the stories Larson told had a lightness I appreciated and her just plain fun.

you know, this run of Batgirl is starting to grow on me. but i really don't know why DC is insisting on these small one-shots that are not really developed and feel that are just there to fill the space they need to print a collection.
