The story arc is good, but what I found fascinating is the way that each issue has its own style of storytelling. Batgirl also faces resistance from the duo of Batman and Robin who don’t really know what to make of the new upstart. As much as Cameron van Cleer wants to establish himself as a Bad Man, he comes up short, but this only spurs his anger. Killer Moth is the antagonist and his story is laid out parallel to Batgirl’s. At first she tries reaching out to the Justice League, but after that fails, she goes it alone. But to be fair, I'm not a Hollywood exec, so "taxes" seems as legit as anything else.Fueled by her frustration with her father for opposing a career in law enforcement and not meeting outdated requirements to join those agencies, Barbara Gordon dons the mask and becomes Batgirl.

Variety's speculation on the "real" reason the film is being ghosted makes even less sense. "Shelving a completed work, still in post-production, and apparently not suffering creatively according to close sources, seems like a pretty expensive write-off. "According to today's bombshell news, the film is being buried ENTIRELY, which makes little sense for a $90 million project that was, for intents and purposes, done and done," Beatty continued. "From the reveals, it looked as if BATGIRL borrowed liberally from all aspects of Batgirl's comic book history, including BATGIRL: YEAR ONE and the NEW 52 iteration of Batgirl popularized by fellow writer Gail Simone." "Since production began in Glasgow, Scotland last year, I've been following all of the scoops and rumors related to the film, mainly because star Leslie Grace quoted my own BATGIRL: YEAR ONE on social media when she unveiled the official Batgirl costume, and set photos hinted that the film was drawing upon BATGIRL: YEAR ONE in thematic inspiration AND some major plot-points," Beatty's post reads in part.
