History YMMV / BatgirlRebirth

* AudienceAlienatingEra: While it certainly has its defenders, Cecil Castelucci's run is regarded by many fans to be a low point for the character, for reasons ranging from the shoehorned in relationship with Jason Bard, who due [[ComicBook/BatmanEternal to certain actions he committed in this continuity]] has some Unfortunate Implications when paired with this version of Barbara that aren't fully addressed, a weak payoff to James Gordon Jr. [[spoiler: where he unceremoniously commits suicide in the last issue]] and a hotly debated scene where Babs coldly brushes Dick off for actions committed by him when he was completely amnesiac and then brainwashed in his own DorkAge as "Ric".

* LesYay: A little between Barbara and Supergirl during their LovelyAngels team-up in the annual, when Kara gives Babs an overenthusiastic hug and they end up carrying each other bridal style on separate occasions.

* BadassDecay: Barbara seems to be going through it as early as issue #2, when she gets KO'd by one punch in an amateur MMA bout, after failing to land a single hit on her opponent. While Babs has always been one of the least skilled fighters in the Batfamily, she's by no means incompetent and has defeated multiple enemies at once on several occasions, even when she was going through her rough patch at the end of her previous series. Some are bothered not that she lost, but that she lost so easily.
* BaseBreakingCharacter: Kai. Either he's an exciting new potential love interest or he's yet another case of RememberTheNewGuy in Barbara's life, and one who threatens to replace Dick Grayson.

While Babs has always been one of the least skilled fighters in the Batfamily, she's by no means incompetent and has defeated multiple enemies at once before, even when she was going through her rough pach at the end of her previous series. Some are bothered not that she lost, but that she lost so easily.

* BrokenBase: Fan arguments about Barbara's new "Burnside" suit carry over from her previous series to this one. Some readers love it, some wish she'd get a new one.
