Look, here's one right now:

It's still sad to see Gail Simone leave the book, though. I know everyone else said it, but I was a fan, too.

The Selfie variants are in august and the new Batgirl starts in october. So that will probably be the normal cover for the book.

And I decided to read that book now. Tha artist seems to be a pretty awesome girl for making fun of the way most people draw womens chests in superhero outfits

I'm generally a fan of her work, she as a person is pretty significant to my marriage actually. But I feel like Batgirl had been treading water for some time. So I don't mind the creative shift.

was watching more of young justice on Netflix and noticed the phonebox that Artemis used to teleport to the cave was a blue one. thought that was amusing.

"Kristin, Will you marry Jordan?

-Gail Simone"

and I framed it and gave it to my wife (then girlfriend) after she came back from a trip out of the country. So we still have that book framed at home. We're been together for almost 7 years now, been married nearly 3, and are expecting a baby in February.

Aww! That's so romantic!

Well, I've only read the first three trades, so I'm not as up to date as everyone else, but I have enjoyed what I've read so far.

Superman is taking a selfie with Batman. Batman seems to be having trouble smiling, so Superman is lending a helping hand (or fingers, if you want to be literal).

It could very well be that they just mislabeled the cover. It really doesn't make sense to me to have to selfie covers in two consecutive issues.

Even if it isn't, I don't mind. As a member of the current American urban youth, I can personally tell you that virtually everyone takes selfies.

Pardon me--I used to be this site's youngest member. I'm still in the mindset of "everyone here is much older than me."
