Gail Simone has confirmed that she is to return to Batgirl shortly after being fired from the title by the editor.
To say this is a shock is rather an understatement.
The title has been critically praised and has been selling pretty well and the way she left the title (fired by email, of all ways) left a very bitter taste in the mouth of her huge fanbase.
Her fanbase is very loyal and vocal and they have been going nuts over the original news of her firing.
I've been an online friend of Gail's for several years and I'm a huge fan of her work and I'm really happy this has been worked out as I didn't want her to leave DC as I'm a huge DC fan and Gail's work at DC has been nothing short of excellent.
Batgirl has been a great title recently and if anyone deserves to be writing Barbera Gordon, it is the redheaded ex-hairdresser from Oregon.
Go Gail!!!
