* WhatCouldHaveBeen: According to Simone, the arc that introduced Nightfall was originally going to end with Barbara being injured and having to disclose her secret identity to Alysia, who would then have taken up the Batgirl mantle while Barbara recovered. Unfortunately, "Death of the Family" - a major Bat-Family crossover - happened around that time, so Barbara was required to remain in the cowl.
