We all know Babs is your favorite batgirl, but who is your favorite robin?

Here's one I don't think has been asked:

Have you ever watched "The Batman" animated series that came out back in 2004, and if so, what did you think of the portrayal of Barbara in it?

Once again, you did a phenomenal job with the Miller interview! Now, onto the questions:
1) As we're nearing the end of Stephanie's first year in the DCU as Batgirl, in what ways has she matured in terms of being Gotham's new Batgirl?

2) In what areas, such as combat, detective skills, or other trademark Batfamily traits, does she still need to improve on?

3) What is the greatest lesson Steph has learned from Babs so far?

4) What is your favorite waffle topping?

I agree with everyone about the Miller show! Great work! My Questions are:

1. What do you think of the details released about Batman Arkham Asylum 2: Arkham City? This game seems to be more focused on Urban Crime featuring the mobsters of Gotham (ie. Black Mask, Penguin, ect.) and Two-Face trying to assassinate Catwoman? Also it seems Alfred has replace Oracle, as her, Nightwing, Robin, and Batgirl are missing. Hopefully, since we will be able to play as Catwoman, we can unlock the rest of the Bat-Family and Babs will be a skin for Batgirl. Wishful thinking =)

2. Have you listened to the Pendant Productions: Batman the Ace of Detectives Audio Drama (the podcast is on iTunes) It seems maybe they heard your opinions, and since Babs went into a Lazarus Pit after being shot, she can walk.The latest episode involved her deciding to remain Oracle, after discussing it with her FIANCE, Nightwing.

3. We all know how you said the most awkward moment for Babs was her interactions with Starfire in Nightwing Annual #2 (Don't worry, here he admits he love Babs more: media.photobucket.com/image/starfire%20nightwing/Maolmao/rejectedbig.png ), but what about Batman Confidential #18 where Babs chases Catwoman to a nude party and engage in a naked catfight, I think that may be more ... yeah...

4. How old are Babs and Dick? I know Babs is older, but last time I heard, Dick was 24 and Babs was 27, but since DC ages them and not Bruce, (Bruce is in his early forties) it often gets retconned.

5. Have you seen Batman Under the Red Hood or read the comics storyline it's based off? DC has announced the next Batman DTV will be Batman: Year One, so maybe if that's successful we will get Batgirl:Year One as well!

6. Have you read the Thrillkiller elseworld version of Babs, she is a big focal point and at the end when Dick dies she actually succeeds him as Robin.

7. What your all-time favorite Babs moment? This could be from the Comics, Cartoons, ect. Mine actually is from the above mentioned Batman: Ace of Detectives, before Babs was able to walk again, she was held hostage with Batwoman, her Dad, and Talia. She confronted the Joker and beat him up from her chair, delivering a awesome speech the whole time, I recommend you listen to it, as it takes you far into Bab's psyche.

EDIT: In case you want to skip to the Babs storyline in the Audio Drama, the it starts at issue 46-present.

EDIT #2: Sorry, I forgot one of my questions, lol. We all know you believe Babs is a better match for Dick than Starfire, but who do you feel is a better match for Bruce? Selina or Talia. What are the pros and cons in each relationship, and who should come out on top?
