Series Finale Sees Debut Of Ryan Wilder Ahead Of CW Batwoman Season 2 Debut! Plus More!

That comes at the same time as the CW revealed two photos of actress Javicia Leslie’s portrayal of Ryan Wilder as Batwoman for the CW series’ second season.

So, Batgirl #50 marks the end of volume 5 of the series…

…in a book branded effectively as a Joker War fallout issue.

There a few stories in this issue; we open with the main story where father and sister grieve the death of James Gordon Jr. at the presumed hands of Batgirl.

We then see Gotham City grappling with the fallout from Joker War where…

…readers meet Ryan Wilder as…

…Batgirl ponders her future role in DC.

The second story is another one where…

…Batgirl ponders her many past roles and what’s next for her.

The final story is a fun one with…

…the Birds of Prey.

The Pulse:

It is sad that all the buzz on this book is the brief debut of Ryan Wilder as opposed to what’s next for Batgirl or Oracle or whatever she does next. That said, I’m intrigued by both ladies in a multi-story issue that was entertaining. Pick it up today as its lighting up eBay. 8 out of 10.
