Today marks “Equal Pay Day.” April 12th is the date that symbolizes how far into the year women must work to earn what men earned in the previous year. It’s a depressing statistic made even more depressing by the fact that we’ve been fighting this same injustice for decades, as this PSA from 1974 starring Batgirl (Yvonne Craig) demonstrates.
But we don’t fight because it’s easy. We fight because it’s the right thing to do.
This year we partnered up with several other little girl cosplayers to recreate the DC Super Hero Girls for our WonderCon cosplay. The girls all had a tremendous amount of fun, and even ran into Lisa Yee, the author of the first DC Super Hero Girls novel, and a group of adult cosplayers who also cosplayed as DC Super Hero Girls.

The long wait is over. For the first time in the series history, you can play as Barbara Gordon, a.k.a. Batgirl. Batgirl is the star of “Batgirl: The Matter of Family,” the first DLC for Batman: Arkham Knight.
The Joker has kidnapped Barbara’s father, Commissioner Gordon, and is threatening to kill him if he sees even a hint of Batman. So it’s up to Batgirl, with an assist from Robin, to take down the Joker’s goons and save her father. The DLC is available for $6.99 on both Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
The PC version of this game remains a hot mess and no release date for the DLC has been announced, yet.
