New Creative Team Headed to BATGIRL

Looks like Barbara is getting a new look as well.

There's been a bunch of new creative announcements at DC this past week. Looks like they're not finished with them just yet. DC has announced, via MTV, that BATGIRL will get a new creative team as well as a slightly new look.

BATGIRL will now be written by Cameron Stewart and Brenden Fletcher with art by newcomer Babs Tarr. This begins in October with BATGIRL #35

Stewart told MTV that Barbara "wants the opportunity to have some fun and live the life of a young, single girl in the city, so she packs up and moves to Burnside, the cool, trendy borough of Gotham, to focus on grad school."

Fletcher continued "Barbara allows herself to be immersed in youth culture for the first time, exploring the social side of life in Burnside. That’s not to say there isn’t mystery, of course! Try as she might to live a “normal” life, Barbara very quickly finds herself drawn back into the world of crime fighting."

Gail Simone will be taking on another project, soon to be announced.
