Magpie's Duology Storytime

For some reason I was thinking about C-list Batman villain Magpie lately so I decided I'd share her first two major comic appearances. I'm pretty sure they're also her only two major appearances. Other than these she's never had a spotlight as a major villain.

What is that costume?

I think John Byrne was trying to go for some kind of 80s punk/new wave thing when he drew her. Magpie's modern design is definitely a bit of an improvement.

And now for Magpie's second major appearance in Batman #401

This issue is also partially tie-in to the event Legends but you should still be able to understand what's happening even without the full context.

Is Legends good btw? I always thought about checking it out.

I've heard mixed things about it. But I've been meaning to check it out. Mostly because I like the New Gods and Suicide Squad and they're both featured in it.

>debut in a Superman comic
>is a Batman villain
Huh.

It was an issue about Clark visiting Gotham for the first time so Magpie just stuck as a Batman villain. Her encounter with Superman was mentioned in the Superman/Batman comics by Jeph Loeb I think.

She was a solo villain in an issue of Batgirl, though I think that ended up tying into a bigger story arc.

She was also the main villain in a couple of episodes of Beware the Batman, which caused her redesign and more frequent appearances in other stuff.

I remember that. It was when they were underground after being buried by Metallo.
