Advent 2014: Favourite Characters Day #7: Bluebird & Spoiler (Batman Eternal)
I turn my attention to two of the extended
members of the Batfamily, Harper Row (Bluebird)
and Stephanie Brown (Spoiler) for the
next installment of my Favourite Characters of 2014. This entry also marks the
start of my reduced plan to lower the limit down to 12 rather than 24 due to
the fact that I want to prioritize more time for my University work.
(Note, there is no image featuring both Spoiler and Bluebird so I have just used a cover from Batman Eternal for this article)

superior to its parent show.
