Y'all Peep That Batgirl Cover That Got Cancelled w/ The Joker?

[scarlxrd]

Good for a Joker cover, horrible for a Batgirl cover.

 

[Diunx]

Cover was piff.

How are you going to have a monster who doesn't do monstrous things like sexual violence?

 

[prophecypro]

They kinda overreacted to that cover

 

[Jazzy B.]

Joker looking like Freddy Kruger cover reminds me a lot of him and Nancy from Nightmare on Elm Street always gave off that rapey vibe with her target audience is young girls so I can see why people would get upset.

So were mean't to act like the Killing Joke didn't happen now. The SJW crowd reactions were stupid as fukk, anyone who goes to a comic shop knows they could pick the regular cover or the joker variant. If it bothers you just don't buy it now nobody can get this.

Her facial expression looks like he's got a broom stick in her ass

Not a bad cover.. definitely not for the kiddies but whatever

I don't think we're supposed to think that but like many cats in here have said, it's probably not the right cover for the target audience that reads batgirl or at least that they want to read batgirl

It's a great comic book cover, but yeah, not for the more adolescent Batgirl comic book.

Pretty much. The tone in the book has changed drastically from what I've heard.

Did those Lego variants fit the tone of Suicide Squad or did those flash variants fit the tone of that Justice League issue?

Variants rarely ever fit the tones of the books, look at those Skottie Young variants also.

That's fair...but again breh, it's about that audience. If there are some 12 year old or 13 year old or possibly younger girls reading batgirl, maybe it's not a good look when you're trying to rebrand your female superheroes and openly invite more female readership especially young female readership into the fold

I guess but I would understand the uproar if this was the regular cover not so much with it being a variant.

touche. if you're that young you're probably not buying the variant. I don't want to make assumptions though

 

[Kill Dat Noize]

Whats so bad about it?

Its not even suggestive unless I'm completely missing something.

i dunno, i could see why some ppl feel its a lil too rated-R for them. that doesn't look like your average comic book cover portraying a damsel in distress. that image looks very real and there appears to be great emphasis on the fear and terror in batgirl's eyes. in fact she looks frightened beyond comprehension.

imagine you take your 4-5 year old daughter to the comic book store and she happens to gaze at that cover.

don't know if that's something she really needs to see.
