Batgirl/YMMV

"Supergirl: "Aren't you gonna...you know..." Batgirl: "Not unless you wanna see my bra." Supergirl: "Does it have a bat on it?""
 * Author's Saving Throw: The revelation that Stephanie had not in fact died at the hands of Black Mask, but had been smuggled out of the country by Leslie Thompkins. It was a blatant Retcon, but it salvaged Thompkin's character and reversed the Stuffed Into the Fridge of Steph's original death.
 * Author's Saving Throw: The revelation that Cassandraturned because she was being drugged by Deathstroke. It still left a lot of holes in the story, but at least it stopped treating her as the bad guy.
 * Crack Pairing/Crossover Ship: Cassandra and Captain America (comics). We're not kidding, it exists.
 * Les Yay: Apparently, Supergirl watches those types of college movies. You know, the ones with Pillow Fights and Slumber Parties, and she is just dying to reenact them with Stephanie. Later, after Dracula appears, Supergirl rips off her top to reveal her costume beneath it.


 * Mary Sue: Cassandra tended to fall into this as her character went on. Even her origin story establishes her with super human powers simply by being raised as combat as her only language, a father who is supposed to be a previously unheard of super mercenary on par with Deathstroke, and automatic approval from the previous Batgirl Barbara Gordon after a lengthy storyline of Barbara disapproving of any new Batgirls.
 * Rescued from the Scrappy Heap: Wendy and her brother Marvin were heavy scrappies when they appeared in Teen Titans, but their brutal exit from the series completely reversed fan opinion over night. Wendy's appearances in Batgirl have been well-received, with praise given for the development of her character as she adjusts to being a paraplegic and continuing to be an active crime-fighter.
 * Stephanie herself counts, as many fans cried foul when she took over for Tim Drake.
 * Screwed by the Network: The Steph Brown version was cancelled to make way for the "relaunch".
 * Too Good to Last: The Cassandra Cain and Stephanie Brown versions, both cancelled at their peak due to events to clear way for other series.
 * The Woobie: Stephanie maintains her enthusiasm despite the mistreatment she receives, both in-universe, and out.
