BATGIRL isn’t my thing, but of course, I’m not part of the target audience or demographic WB/HBOM is going for anyway. Regardless, I hope it’s good and does well. Clearly, they are going after a younger/female audience and that’s MORE than OK. Any conduit into the world of DC Comics and Batman is more than welcome.
