1 | !!Batgirl I - Barbara Gordon |
2 | * In ''Comicbook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths #4'', Barbara is frightened of dying for real this time, so she calls her best friend ''[[Comicbook/{{Supergirl}} Kara]]'' and confides her fears to her. Supergirl right away tells her she doesn't need super-powers to be a hero. |
3 | -->'''Supergirl:''' Batgirl -- you called me?\ |
4 | '''Batgirl:''' The city... it's so empty. Mostly everyone is staying inside... with their loved ones... awaiting the end. I -- I think this time it's really coming.\ |
5 | '''Supergirl:''' I know the feeling. And you're right -- hardly anyone's outside. Not even the criminals. But there must be a way to stop whatever's out there. I'm not ready to give in so easily.\ |
6 | '''Batgirl:''' Supergirl... Linda -- I've faced death so often because I never truly believed I would die. But now -- Now I feel so useless, so helpless, so worthless -- and so very, very scared.\ |
7 | '''Supergirl:''' Everyone is, Barbara. I've spoken to Superman and the Titans -- They say Flash may have died. And other heroes... some villains, too -- have disappeared. I'm scared, too -- but I can't let that stop me from doing what I have to.\ |
8 | '''Batgirl:''' Easy for you to say. Look at your powers, I-I'm nothing. I-I don't think I was ever cut out for playing hero.\ |
9 | '''Supergirl:''' Barbara, there are thousands of people out there -- without powers like mine... the police, firemen, soldiers -- They're all ordinary people trying their best to keep this world from falling apart before its time. |
10 | * In the ''[[http://comicboxcommentary.blogspot.com.es/2008/12/review-dc-universe-holiday-special-1.html DC Universe Holiday Special 2008: A Day Without Sirens]]'', a "Day Without Sirens" is proposed right before Christmas. Commissioner Gordon believes such an initiative is doomed to failure. The criminals of Gotham would never heed such a calling. However, the day proceeds without police sirens. [[http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pScx8BN4h3s/SU-kKYaVUmI/AAAAAAAACGc/LKdSPl0ht34/s1600-h/holiday-09.jpg It turns out that Oracle and Supergirl handled covertly all emergency calls during that day]]. |
11 | -->'''Oracle:''' Just rest easy knowing you did something special today.\ |
12 | '''Supergirl:''' You really think so? Do you think this one day is going to make a difference?\ |
13 | '''Oracle:''' I know so. Never discount the healing power of a little hope, Kara. |
