batgirl year one

December 7, 2009 in art by mike | 4 comments

I just recently read Batgirl: Year One and fell in love with Barbara Gordon’s original costume. So much in fact, I was left with no other choice but to draw another Batgirl:

It was fun to just draw something for myself again. I’ve drawn SO much stuff I can’t (or don’t want to) post here yet. Most of it is super fun but it can still be draining to only draw stuff you have to. Drawing Batgirls is like cartoonist’s therapy.

    Beautiful colors and I love the motion! The Year One book was actually how I got my wife into reading trades :)
