Fairly new to comics (somewhat, it's complicated), and didn't really feel like going into older series. But there isn't any new 52 series that shows the back story of when Harper becomes Arsenal? Not even in the Red Hood and the outlaws?
Have they finished off the Batgirl New 52 series? I guess if and when they do that would be when she get's shot.
the New52 is not a hardwire reboot like everyone wants to make you believe, it keeps some of the more notorious stories,
Batgirl has not and probably will never be shot in the New52. yes it is an ongoing, so its not over, and doesn't look like it will be soon. the closest thing to this I can think of. is issue zero, this shows the event, but not anything more than just bits and pieces, this is a very old story, this is how she became the superhero, Oracle. they are proceeding like all that has happened already.
the back story on roy harper is the same thing, though it appears they kept a lot of his old storyline out of the new storyline. heres how it used to go, Roy becomes a heroine addict, Green Arrow kicks him off the team, roy gets a wife and baby, loses an arm, loses his daughter. I don't think any of that is in continuity (other than him being booted)
Robins.... yeah NO.... this is decades of stories we are talking of here, and the New52 has only been around for 2 years
2 years
2 years, is not even long enough for them to make flashback references to them being robins, buuuuttt... again read issue zero of Batman and Robin, theres a single panel dedicated to each robin, and their origin/induction into being robin.
