Barbara "Barb" Gordon is a fictional character appearing in comic books published by DC Comics and in related media, created by Gardner Fox and Carmine Infantino. From 1967 to 1988, she was the superheroine Batgirl; from 1989 to November, 2011, she had been known as Oracle. In Batgirl Vol 4 #1, she recovered from her injuries and hit the streets as Batgirl once again. Introduced as the daughter of Gotham City police commissioner James Gordon, Barbara Gordon made her first comic book appearance in a story published in Detective Comics #359 titled "The Million Dollar Debut of Batgirl" (January 1967).

As Batgirl, Barbara Gordon has been described as one of the most popular characters to appear during the Silver Age of Comic Books and is also regarded as a pop culture icon due to her appearances in the Batman television series of the late 1960s and continued media exposure. The Barbara Gordon version of Batgirl has been adapted into various media relating to the Batman franchise, including merchandise, television, and animation. During the early 1970s, the character was also used as an advocate for women's rights.

‘Batgirl’ Is Now Just Another DC Films Project In Development

From The Playlist

Oh, DC Films. As Marvel celebrates a decade of cinematic world-building mega success, their rivals are still trying to figure out how to make more than one good movie at a time. “Wonder Woman” aside, the post-“The Dark Knight” trilogy era of DC movies has been grim. The efforts have been creatively empty, and financially disappointing, and while there have been an endless array of projects announced, they are all sitting somewhere in the development pile. You can now add “Batgirl” to the list.

Late last week, high profile hire Joss Whedon (who earned the good graces of DC by stepping in for Zack Snyder on “Justice League“) exited the project, declaring that as he tried to figure out his way into the script, “I really didn’t have a story.” It was probably just as well, given the optics of a female superhero being written and directed by a dude weren’t so great. But with Whedon gone, The Wrap reports that DC is no rush to get Batgirl to the big screen. According to the trade, DC is still focused on the big screen adventures of their core characters — Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, The Flash, and Green Lantern — before delving into smaller superheroes (then someone please explain why “Shazam!” is happening). At any rate, “Batgirl” is returning the cupboard with the rest of DC’s not quite ready projects.

If there’s any silver lining, Matt Reeves‘ “The Batman” is apparently in development and seems to be somewhat of a priority, whatever that means in DC’s world. The studio’s next three projects are “Aquaman,” “Shazam!” and “Wonder Woman 2,” so even that is a few years off at best.

One night a party at Wayne Manor is interrupted with the arrival of a statue of Batman with a note stating that Batman will perish in 24 hours. However when they unmask the statue, it is the face of a man nobody attending the party has ever seen before. Turning back the clock we learn that the face in question is that of Herbert Small, a mailman who idolizes Batman, and is stricken with a malady that has made his hearing super sensitive.

One day when doing his regular deliveries, he overhears a plot by a number of crooks who plan on getting revenge against Batman. He notes the faces of those who leave, and after Batman narrowly beats a group of would-be murderers, Herbert decides to get involved. Since his days are numbered, Herbert disguises himself as one of the crooks and reports back to their boss telling him that he's "seen" Batman's secret identity and tells him that it's Herbert Small.

Flashing to the present, Herbert is the one who leaves the statue of Batman with the note, hoping that one of the high profile people at Wayne's party would be able to get word back to Batman who would be able to figure out the clue that he's left in terms of the face on the statue being Smalls. After the party, Bruce Wayne does figure it out when Alfred brings him the mail, and so as Batman springs in and saves Small's life. However, even though Batman breaks up all the crooks he fails to save Small's life who jumped in the path of a bullet meant for Batman. Before passing away, Batman fullfills Herbert's last wish: To see the true face of Batman. Satisfied (and implying that he knew who Batman was) Herbert dies a hero.
