Cecil Castellucci Is Writing The Batgirl We've Been Waiting For

Cecil Castellucci has written various characters in different DC imprints, from Shade the Changing Girl to, more recently, Female Furies. And this fall, she will be writing her first title in the DC Universe with Batgirl. 

Batgirl has had a long tradition with dope female writers taking the reins. Castellucci is taking her first go with the character in this summer’s Year of the Villain, Batgirl #37 Killer Infestation. Later this fall, she will take over the entire run of the series. Castellucci will pick up writing Batgirl after Mairghread Scott—another badass female comic writer—ends her current tenure with Barbara “Babs” Gordon.
