[Frank Richards]

I really don't understand all of the hate that this new Batgirl costume continues to receive among DC fans.
Personally, I like the touch of realism, (since it looks like Babs is wearing some sort of motorcycle racing gear and Doc Martens) over the typical nondescript, generic "spandex" look.

I can understand the backlash that resulted after the creative team that replaced Gail Simone and Co. reverted Barbara to being a carefree twenty-something, disregarding her substantial history, but I can't comprehend how people were equating her new look to notoriously bad redesigns, like Paul Ryan's 90's era Sue Richards, or 90's era Guy Gardner during his cowboy boots phase, lol !
