COMICS: Gail Simone To Resume Writing Duties On BATGIRL

Awesome. Comic justice was served but now whoever was behind the firing certainly has egg on their face. :P

@LEVITIKUZ: yeah me too

It was a lil weird that she got fired (BY EMAIL!!) when this tittle had constantly received good reviews

Glad to hear shes back on

Didn't like, threw a fit, got it.

Haven't read her work on Batgirl but glad she gets to keep her job.

only read the 1st issue of Batgirl. fucc barbara gordon. loved her Secret Six run though, or atleast up untill Scott left the book.

Honestly, who cares. I'm not reading Batgirl until they put Barbara Gordon back in the wheelchair and have her play the more important role of Oracle. I'm not saying I won't buy the tie-in books (I'm a collector, what can I say), but at the end of the day "fixing" Barbara Gordon so she can be Batgirl again was a stupid idea.

yingyangpalms@ I'm pretty sure there's no gender issue, here. Just read this article as if Gail Simone is male. That could help you digest this. She's a fan favorite writer, there was news she was leaving a book, fans reacted, she's not leaving anymore. See? No gender issue. You might want to have a little word with yourself, there.

[frick] YES!

I was seriously pissed off that she had been axed from Batgirl. It was bad enough with Reis leaving Aquaman.

Dude, what does making a fuss about it and getting fans to rally for her have with being a woman. Thta's kind of a huge leap in logic, there. Leifeld made a shitload more fuss over Deathstroke, he was bitching and moaning all the way and as loud as he could, the difference is, Simone stayed professional by not directly insulting DC or the bigwigs in charge, there. That's why she got her job back and Liefeld didn't.
Again, look over your own damn comments, sir. That gender thing is just shoe-horned in there as if we're supposed to automatically assume that the reason the made a fuss was because of her gender and that a man wouldn't do so, which is absurd. Or are you saying that they took sympathy on her because of her gender and they wouldn't have done so with a man. Or are you saying she's sucking Lee and DiDio's dicks or what?
Just what are you actually saying here, yingyangpalms@? How on earth is this anything to do with her gender?

Am I the only one who didn't like her work on Batgirl? No, wait, I wasn't. The editors don't like it either.
I've dropped the book, but I'm glad she gets to keep her job.

Sweet! Didn't like that DC were dumping a genuinely good writer, so very glad to hear she's back on the title.

@yingyangpalms

I love it when idiots like you learn to write whole sentences. It's like a verbal train-wreck

I'm not sure who's more irrelevant-Simone or Batgirl??
Most comic shops get stuck with crap like Batgirl because DC forces them to carry it.
When a writer or artist sucks, they get stuck on crappy characters like Batgirl, Namor, She-Hulk.
Its like a marriage of suckiness. So I guess Simone does belong on that comic, or at least until Dr. Fate, or Power Pack get a reboot.

Notice there were new folks put in charge over DC just yesterday? LOL
