Discover What Your Name Means Day: Batgirls (Various Continuities)

Last year I did Red Robins the year prior with Red Hoods, Nightwings, and Robins before them (see links below) and I thought that I would continue this trend with this year for Batgirls.

Instead of one Batkid filling in as Batman when Bruce can’t they all do it and every single citizen of Gotham will swear to their dying breath that there is only one Batman and that it’s the same person in every picture regardless of if the pictures are of Stephanie and Damian or of Dick and Jason or whatever, they are all clearly the same Batman, yes even the one in the corner of the picture because Batman™
