Originally in 1961, Batgirl was known as “Bat-Girl” and she was portrayed as Batwoman’s niece and sidekick. Then in 1967, the superheroine was revamped and her name was changed to Batgirl.
She was no longer a sidekick or love interest. Instead she is portrayed as the daughter of Gotham City’s Police Commissioner and she became a peer to the other DC characters.
Her equality and her strong desire to fight crime caught the attention of the female audience. As a result, her popularity skyrocketed and she is now regarded as a cultural icon and a symbol of female empowerment.
The Batgirl Figurine Edition 1561 is in mint condition. It makes a great gift for collectors and superhero enthusiasts.
You might also enjoy Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, and Catwoman which are all also limited-edition #1561/2500. Contact us to discuss a discounted rate if you are interested in purchasing the whole set.
