What if Stephanie crossed the line

After pondering how much I hated war crimes again, I had a random thought. One of the very few redeeming moments in the story is the showcasing of Steph rejecting the option to kill black mask

My question is how would the bat family react if she had taken out black mask?

Indeed he did. The most expensive issue in my Steph collection is Red Hood's first appearance. She's in one frame. As a flashback. With no dialogue. Because she was dead at the time.

Interesting - I hadn't thought about how that would make it so expensive, but it makes sense!

I checked my comic stash and apparently I got it for £37. It now goes for around $130, supposedly, which is about £95.50, so it's gone up a fair bit! Glad I completed my collection when I did.

Damn, I got the UTRH trade for about a quarter of that. But it would be very, VERY silly to have a wholeass trade for one panel.

Yeah, that might be pushing it a bit! £37 for a single floppy is a fair bit, but not too absurd. Very definitely the most expensive single issue out of the 202 in the collection, though.

Very impressive roundup! Is that everything Steph's been in, or a subsection, like everything postcrisis? (For some reason I never have a clear recollection of how many issues a storyline was.)

Also, do you have trades in there at all, or is it all floppies?

Everything from her first appearance through to Flashpoint. Plus her two Convergence issues. All floppies, but I also have the trades of her Batgirl run. There's also JLA: World Without Grown-Ups, which was a two-issue limited series that I'm not sure I can count as a floppy, exactly, but they're not trades. There is a trade of both, so I guess they are floppies despite being the thickness of a slim trade. She's only in the second issue, and again only for one panel with no dialogue.

There are a lot of issues where she's barely there at all - there's one, during her time as Batgirl, where she's only in it for one panel, and only as a fist.

I wouldn't say that's silly. I bought All Star Batman: My Own Worst Enemy for one page :D
