Variant covers are in limited supply, they aren't distributed everywhere. Most people probably wouldn't have even seen them on the shelves, had it not been cancelled.

I don't really care enough about American comic books to really get into this right now. I just wish there was a way that you all could understand where I'm coming from, because if you did I'm sure you'd agree. :/

Wasn't there a cover with Robin sobbing and The Joker with a crowbar?

Joker killed Robin in one of the comics.

I dunno, if the RobinxCrowbar Joker thing is true, all I can think is double standard.

Or maybe there was outrage about it as well but it didn't get as big because there wasn't this huge "SJW" bogeyman floating around in everyone's minds. Or maybe the target audience wasn't admitted by the publisher to be young girls among others but instead adults.

I think the cover is artistically well done, but I'm not really familiar with the subject matter so I don't have much room to talk.

What amuses me is that if for some reason that was a guy instead of Batgirl no one would have said a thing.

Rafael Albuquerque:

My Batgirl variant cover artwork was designed to pay homage to a comic that I really admire, and I know is a favorite of many readers. 'The Killing Joke' is part of Batgirl’s canon and artistically, I couldn't avoid portraying the traumatic relationship between Barbara Gordon and the Joker.
For me, it was just a creepy cover that brought up something from the character’s past that I was able to interpret artistically. But it has become clear, that for others, it touched a very important nerve. I respect these opinions and, despite whether the discussion is right or wrong, no opinion should be discredited.

My intention was never to hurt or upset anyone through my art. For that reason, I have recommended to DC that the variant cover be pulled. I'm incredibly pleased that DC Comics is listening to my concerns and will not be publishing the cover art in June as previously announced.

With all due respect,

Rafa

The only thing I can agree about when it comes to that cover, that seems to be the bigger argument anyway, is that maybe putting it on a book clearly geared towards a younger audience was in bad taste. But the art itself, I don't see anything wrong with it.

The art itself really scares me. I don't fancy spooky things.

But I guess that was the idea???

Which happens all the time. The number of times Batman has been shown dead or tied up by the Joker or even Robin. No one bats (hah) a lash.

Hell, this isn't even the first time Batgirl has appeared to be harmed or attacked by some villain.

The thing is people don't need to get the variant issue either. If you don't like the cover, get the regular version?

If I can't have this then NO ONE can.

But it's done, no use really getting worked up over it.
