I WANT TO GO BACK TO COMICS

Or rather, specifically, I want to read Bat-family comics before Bruce comes back and ruins the current awesome dynamic like I know he will. :|

So, uh, which and how many series do I have to pick up for this? I HAVEN'T LOOKED AT DC COMICS IN THREE YEARS, BE GENTLE WITH ME

(Oh god why has it been that long since I read a comic book. I am so ashamed of myself now.)

It's the best place to go for Babs post Batman RIP, I meant. She's in the Birds of Prey now, and that might pick up, ut the Batgirl Rising trade is out now and excellent.

And, I may have spoiled (heh) the first issue of Batgirl for you there. Oh well, it is fucking win.

Oooh, Batgirl Rising sounds promising from title alone. And it's more I'm not sure what RIP is but everyone keeps referencing it. I have so much reading to do before bringing Dick back in the bar, good lord.

Hey, I wouldn't have picked it up otherwise (Cass got ruined for me long ago, I AM STILL BITTER ABOUT THIS) so knowing is a good thing. :D

Batman RIP is what happened just before Final Crisis, leading up to Bruce's Death. the whole Batfmily was completely reshuffled in Battle for the Cowl and Batman Reborn:

Batman- Dick Grayson
Robin - Damien Wayne
Red Robin - Tim Drake
Batgirl - Stephanie Brown
Oracle - Barbara Gordon
Red Hood - Jason Todd
Batwoman - Kate Kane
MIA - Cassandra Cain, Bruce Wayne
