I always love stumbling upon hidden concept art gems like this.

Here’s Nell as Batgirl as seen from Steph’s run as Batgirl in issue #24. I loved this little girl. Too bad we may never actually see her become Batgirl because of the New 52. /tears

OHY MY GOFD I JUSTA OPEFNED MY DOOR AND MY BROTHER PUT HIS STUPID IRON MAN CUTO UT THERE AND I SCREAMED SO LOUD JFC
If you listen really, really closely, you can hear my heart shatter when I read these panels. There is SO MUCH going on here. First off, we’ve got Steph being appreciated for the work she’s doing as a bat, which is not something she’s ever gotten (fuck you, Didio). We’ve got Jim clearly making a reference to his knowledge of what Babs used to do, and you see that one of the reasons Jim appreciates Steph is because he can see Babs in what she’s doing.
God, I miss Steph, and I miss the slow, careful laying out that was happening pre-reboot of Jim making it clear through hints and conversations that he knows exactly who all the bats are and appreciates what they do.
