This week, DC Comics' "Joker War" reaches its climax with the release of Batman #100. And Batman writer James Tynion IV promises that none other than Barbara Gordon will be a central player in the Dark Knight's main title moving forward. DC recently released a preview for Batman #100, which sees Barbara helping her comrades even the odds by shedding her Batgirl cowl, putting on a pair of glasses and assuming the mantle of Oracle for the first time in nearly a decade. As Tynion writes on his blog, it looks like readers can expect her to stick around for the foreseeable future.
