I’m posting it now because the Steph-Batgirl Cosplayer from last year is at SDCC asking questions again.

And she’s getting brushed off. Again.

Seriously, DC, get it together.

I just…I don’t know what to think anymore.

I KNOW for a fact that there are writers who want to write Steph. Scott Snyder…Bryan Q. Miller…Gail Simone…

But the sheer fact that nobody is saying ANYTHING disturbs me. This is beyond simple economics and business sense. The writers are there and the fanbase is there. So who is keeping them down?

But the silence is maddening. And it hurts. It hurts deep down inside like razor blades. Why is DC doing this?

Why?
