I agree, which is why I like this statue of Batgirl. It's one of the few representations of her in the blue/grey costume w/o ridiculous heels.

every heroine in the 70's had heels on their boots. You did not really think anything of it until they started to go away in the 80's and then you realized how hard it would have been to fight crime in them

Yeah, she was released two weeks ago. Diamond makes shipping to comics shops first a priority. Online retailers get theirs later.

Would you say the peg attached to her cape is pretty secure? I feel like it might punch through the cape itself. I know you posted pictures of Artgerm's Huntress' cape cracking at her upper back. In your opinion is this statue sturdier?

Engineering is fine, the cape is slightly thicker at the bottom where the peg is. Also, this cape is resting against a surface, so it's not going to move the way that the Artgerm Huntress and Batwoman capes do.

The problem with the Artgerm Huntress and Batwoman capes is that the capes are basically the same thickness for their entireties. That makes them too heavy for the wires inside them to support them properly. They should've been tapered or made of cloth.

This helps me a lot in my decision making. Do you think Joelle will make a Huntress and Black Canary? I need the three BoP's as much as the GCS'. I love them.

Honestly, that's a tough call. The Rebirth Birds of Prey comic has been canceled. I know Black Canary is appearing in Green Arrow now, and Huntress was in Hellblazer for several issues (though it's also canceled). I would guess that we'll get at least a Black Canary since she was also in the Hughes and Artgerm waves.

Never realized she was taking a selfie.

My appreciation of the concept and execution of that piece just shot WAY up.
