NYCC 2013: Scott Snyder announces the return of Stephanie Brown and her first appearance since the New 52!

You may have noticed that this blog is predominantly filled with posts about Marvel Comics, there's no hiding that I am a Marvel Fanboy, from the television programmes of the 90's where it all began, to the comics, the movies and the games.

But when the New 52 came about in September 2011 I took this opportunity to begin reading many of the DC titles friends of mine had always recommended, but seeing as I didn't start collecting comics till I was 16 I had missed a decade of story plots and found the universe well basically to confusing.

However obviously I knew of Batman and of Superman and the rest of the Justice League and of these characters the only two I am currently still picking up monthly since 2011 are Batman from Snyder and Capullo and also Wonder Woman from Azarello and Chiang. 

Despite all this by following comics news it was easy to become aware of who Stephanie Brown was and how important a character she was to many a DC fan. Every Convention since at every DC live event the question was always asked of Dan DiDio "When will we see Stephanie Brown be turning up in the New 52?" Well these fans finally have there answer during the Batman panel Scott Snyder along with James Tynion IV made the announcement that they will not have to wait much longer come Spring 2014 and with the release of the new Batman weekly series Stephanie Brown will return to our pages in Batman Eternal as her original character Spoiler.

So for those Batgirl and Stephanie Brown fans out there keep your eyes peeled to the early year solicitations each month to work out when you will finally see this character return to your pages.
