Interview about the various Post-BotC Batman Comics, including Batgirl

IGN Comics: Batgirl is another series that's coming out later in the summer...

Marts: Correct. We've released the fact that it's coming out in August as well as the creative team. This is very much a question mark. We've been intentionally coy about Batgirl information. We don't want people to automatically assume Cassandra Cain is Batgirl. I will say that the person who becomes Batgirl is indeed on the board.

IGN Comics: Barbara Gordon has a lot of fans that are wondering where she'll wind up moving forward. I see that she's located underneath the "Batgirl" section of the board. Is that going to be her home for the foreseeable future?

Marts: I would say so. She'll be important to the Batgirl series, and also certain story threads that we introduced in the Oracle limited series will find their way into this series as well.

Oh my god! This can only mean one thing... Calculater is the next Batgirl!

	Oh, I'm sure that's more likely, but the costume similarity and the entire 'sons of the same father' thing makes my unduly nervous. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think the 'sons of the same father' line comes into play due to the fact that Hurt believed himself (or was pretending to be) to be Thomas Wayne, therefore he effectively gave birth to Batman and the three pretenders. That said, there is a bizarrely ominous connection between Jason's outfit and the Ghost of Batman. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I never thought of it that way. Though isn't that particular 'Ghost of Batman' now the current Azrael? I wonder why he'd go back to being a wannabe Batman? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The third Ghost of Batman, in #666, makes references to Hurt being the Devil, and coming to earth occasionally. Perhaps Hurt comes back prior to #666 and re-exerts his influence over him. Either that, or editorial forgot this, somehow. I don't think #666 is the exact future, though. (Reply to this) (Parent)
