pickOh yes. I love the vintage feel, the sense of going back to Batgirl's orgins now, in a way that obviously plays off lore that has developed over the years, e.g. the Oracle/Cassandra references, the hint of something with Dick, the ominous whisper in references to the Joker.
The writers and artists did a great job of presenting a recognizable character with a bit more youthful hubris and pep, 1/?

This card drawn by @Meaw_catlady and @ErinSueMreads represents energy, passion, and impulsiveness. That describes one of my favorite comic book characters ever, Barbara Gordon! Barbara wasn‘t planning on becoming a superhero when she attended a costume party as Batgirl, but when she saw Bruce Wayne being kidnapped, she sprang into action and rescued him! Having a desire to help others, she continued being Batgirl.
“I use their expectations against them. That will be their weakness. Not mine. Let them all underestimate me. Let them think they have the upper hand over the little girl....Let them believe they're closing their grips on a shrinking violet. And when their guard is down and their pride is rising...let me kick their butts up around their ears.”

I enjoyed the balance between depicting a young woman frustrated by the limiting requirements of ideal career fields, a repeated pattern of men telling her she literally didn't 1w
Back to the vintage style I mentioned, there's some dated terms that Babara is using to refer to Black Canary, bad she is consistently acknowledging when her efforts are overshadowed by more 1w
