For today I have a really long sequence from 2 comic books that should interest you as well 😉
Batgirl and Robin are our masked heroes here and there is plenty of sexy aspects in this one for me…. and hopefully for you as well!

Well, so… what do I love about this one?
First, they get attacked with gas. They react and pull out some oxygen masks/devices.
But… that is not enough, as this gas works with skin contact.
Batgirl is protected much better with her full suit and mask, but eventually, the gas gets through the fabric of her sexy latex (? – at least in my mind) suit.
I would have preferred if the gas would have worked more “traditionally” and the goons would have managed to yank off the oxygen masks/devices of the two.
But still…. a great peril how Batgirl continues to fight until she collapses.
They get tied up and the threat of unmasking them appears…. I love how Penguin and the other guys talk about unmasking them …and who would do it and so on 🙂
Such a predicament for the two masked heroes…..
Luckily for them, they don’t act and just talk about it endlessly… like a Bond villain who wants to kill him.
Penguin even has his hand on one of the ears of Batgirl’s cowl, but she is lucky he gets stopped.
Then they have to fight each other… another great idea! I mean they must be careful not to unmask each other by accident.
Especially as Robin punches Batgirl in the face repeatedly, but the fabric doesn’t rip, so she can still hide behind her mask.
Interestingly her mask does get damaged on the cover of the Batgirl comic book, as some fabric seems to tear off her mask.
She gets touched by that goon and by Penguin and plays dead.
She is very lucky again as none of them try to unmask her…. quite odd… as they MUST be curious to see how she looks like beneath that mask!
Then the guys turn against Penguin and they can both escape with their secret identities intact!
Quite a long scene with these two… and a lot of interesting aspects.
Batman Returns is my favorite Batman movie… and you know why 😉
The two Tim Burton Batman movies are really very special to me and I love “Batman & Robin” for one reason as well (starts with “Bat” and ends with “girl”).
I stumbled upon some videos about certain aspects of these early movies and what could have been… if some other decisions would have been made back in the day.
Here is the first one (not my video or upload):
Fascinating!
The fact that McDonalds promoted “Batman Returns” with toys in Happy Meals is just hilarious.
The movie is awesome… but definitely not made for kids.
Seemingly WarnerBrothers and McDonalds were surprised by that?!? 😆
Sadly the movie didn’t make as much money as they hoped and the plan with a Catwoman Spin-off movie was never greenlighted.
But we got the Halle Barry Catwoman flick instead… oh my god! 🙁
That is the real tragedy here.
Imagine a movie with Michelle Pfeiffer’s Catwoman as the main character! I might sell my soul for that…
But the quest for toy sales for those damn kids ruined that… and the two toy commercial movies with Schumacher followed.
Even I always will defend “Batman & Robin” as some minutes of Batgirl in that costume just made it so remarkable for me.
And the fact that “Batman Forever” made more money than “Batman Returns”…. is just insane when you compare the quality of the movies.
All the damn kids were allowed to watch “Batman Forever”… the money that “Batman Returns” missed to get.
–
So, what might have happened if Joel Schumacher had made a third Batman movie?
Verrrry interesting!
A darker movie with that storyline… yeah, would have been interesting to watch for sure, especially with Catwoman appearing again, even if it seemingly would have been just a hallucination.
Scarecrow and Harley as the villains, and hating Bruce Wayne and one hating Batman… yeah, sounds like a good idea!
But yeah, it would have been quite difficult and expensive… to have made that one.
–
An alternative script for Batman Returns:
Hmh, yeah… these Catwoman scenes could have been awesome as well!
There are basically two Catwoman aspects that I don’t like in “Batman Returns”:
– The fact that she is a secretary who then goes on to have her revenge on her boss (instead of being a master-class thief)
– And that Selina and Bruce learn each other secret identities by re-phrasing that one dialogue that had as Catwoman and Batman.
These two aspects could have been improved for sure with a different script.
But it’s really hard to tell if that script would have made a(n even) better movie.
There are no secret identity aspects in that video, no unmasking or such things.
But if you like masked women in rubber wetsuits who wrestle underwater…. then you will enjoy the video 😉
–
Do you wanna watch the whole video?
Well, you could join the VIP club on Frogwoman.org, but that probably wouldn’t make much sense for you as the other videos there don’t contain masked women 😉
Unless you count a scuba mask as a mask (in terms of a disguise).
So, right here on the blog, you get an alternative method to get the video:
After I upgraded the existing posts last week it’s time to make a post about the exciting scenes I haven’t even posted about …so far.
I’m talking about the “Birds of Prey” TV show.
As I mentioned… there are only a few Batgirl scenes in it as Barbara Gordon is actually Oracle in this show… for most of the time.
But there are some interesting flashbacks in the show’s very first episode.

Catwoman!

Here is the video:

Well, I think the Catwoman costume is ok. I mean it was just meant to be on screen for some seconds so they didn’t put up a really big effort or budget to make a great one.
But it’s so sad that there once was such a Catwoman and such a Batgirl in Gotham and the show actually starts later on without them. 🙁 #scriptcrime
These two (and more) during a full TV show? That would be insanely awesome… maybe one day…
But it’s nice that we get some more Batgirl footage in this one, even the fight in the hallway is cut pretty badly so it’s hard to see much.
The highlight is actually the scene where Batgirl slams into the wall.
If you check that in slow-motion you can actually see how her cowl lifts up quite a lot and she is in danger of getting unmasked! #stuntwoman
But I guess it wouldn’t have made much difference in this case as the Joker already knows that Barbara is Batgirl as he shows up at her apartment … #uncool
And it’s a nice bonus to have that self-unmasking in another flashback scene as well!
Well… pretty insane/irresponsible to unmask herself in a public place like that… even at night.
Perhaps she was aware that this was only happening in that mind-control game? Hard to say…
I like how her bat symbol is the only flashing color in that scene… very iconic/symbolic.
It’s time for a proper upgrade as there is so little text in these old posts!
This is one of my favorite scenes that I have watched a hundred times, so it’s time to make a proper upgrade post.
Also, the video is on my pretty small Dailymotion channel, so many of you may have never seen the video or that old post.

In this TV show, Barbara Gordon is Oracle and is bound to a wheelchair.
As her old enemy, Lady Shiva re-appears in Gotham Barbara feels the need to put on her old (GREAT) Batgirl costume and can (shortly) walk again with the help of an experimental device.
Preview:
The two meet again..
…Lady Shiva…
…and Batgirl!
Batgirl is down!
Is that a hand at her cowl? 😉

Watch the video before you continue!
This Batgirl costume (alongside the nearly identical one from “Batman and Robin”) is SO AWESOME for me!
The mixture with the (mostly) black leather and rubber is sexy as hell and I love every second Dina Meyer is in it (and Alicia Silverstone).
If I would live in that Gotham City I would become a criminal in no time or …even better… a cop who wants to arrest the vigilante. #BlackScorpionvibes
Or I would need to be rescued from evil criminals suspectingly often 😉
The cowl is nice but basically my only issue about the whole outfit.
It is cut open very high at the back of the head and …more problematic… has no chin strap and no neck coverage.
So unmasking her is way too easy as this video demonstrates.
Also, the cowl could simply fall off in a hectic fight… and that shouldn’t be possible.
It’s a fantastic tread that here we also have a second masked woman in the scene… Lady Shiva.
And damn… her mask is AWESOME and the costume is quite good as well.
It’s a shame that Batgirl here goes down so easily as that device is failing quickly. 🙁
An epic unmasking battle with these two where Batgirl isn’t paralyzed and is wearing a properly secured/upgraded cowl… is basically my holy grail.
Also a whole TV show with such a Batgirl as the lead character…. would be even more insanely-awesome-fantastic 😉
In this show Batgirl is just in one episode and some black and white mini flashbacks.
I do love that Shiva here immediately goes for Batgirl’s mask as soon she realizes that Batgirl is helpless!
That’s how a villain(ess) should do it! She has the opportunity to find out who Batgirl is and takes it. Perfect!
Not like most of the other villains who just run off and aren’t interested at all to find out who is hiding behind that mask.
Now the helpless Barbara Gordon is lying in front of her and she is ready to finish her off to get her revenge (most likely).
Then Huntress, who is sadly never wearing a mask or even a costume, shows up right in time to save Barbara.
She was too late to save Batgirl from the unmasking though. #timing
Due to the fact that Huntress isn’t wearing a mask, Lady Shiva recognizes Helena and runs off as she doesn’t wanna fight against her.
Or maybe she was afraid to lose and then be unmasked as well? 😉
All in all just an awesome scene!
Here, as a little bonus… two (edited) pictures of the “exposed” Barbara:
Today I wanna present a Batgirl fan film that just premiered this week.
I watched it yesterday and I think it deserves to be the topic of the weekly post here.
And this is a Batgirl film that wasn’t canceled! 😉
At least not yet… don’t know if DC/Warner will let it stay on YouTube or not.
In the past the fantastic “Batgirl: Spoiled” series was stopped after the second episode for example, even these episodes are still available on YouTube.
(That’s why I save every video I think is really good and that I wanna rewatch)
If you have a little over 30 minutes… watch it!
Official Synopsis: Following the murder of Jason Todd, Barbara Gordon must choose between her life and her aspirations of finding and killing The Joker, Jason’s murderer.

Watch the film and then continue!
Wow, that was a dark ending… not really surprising… if you know the comics.
Personally, I don’t like that aspect of the “Killing Joke” as it is such a trauma for Barbara and banned her from being Batgirl for a long time.
I think the movie is shot really well and the acting is quite good as well.
I mean it’s a fan film that was crowdfunded with a little over 2.000$ and is over 30 minutes long, quite a length for such a film.
Her costume is just okay… but I really like the Batgirl cowl they used. A quality cowl, especially if you just have such kind of budget.
Kendall Felix, who plays Barbara and Batgirl, also directed and wrote this film.
The short fight scenes here aren’t really exciting, but that is …again… a money issue I would say.
Not surprisingly… Batgirl has quite a lot of screen time here, but also Barbara as well.
I like the self-unmasking and the re-masking in this one.
Also that she tosses her cowl on the ground as she enters the apartment in the end.
Even that meant that she was standing unmasked in the hallway… quite risky. 😉
Funny that this fan film also has the trope of heroes standing around unmasked on rooftops at night.
I wouldn’t recommend that….
Another plus point is the music in this one, very fitting with a heroic tune as soon as the movie title appears.
After the last years provided very little when it comes to interesting female unmasking scenes… this one clearly stands out and is pretttttty good!
Glad that someone posted about it on a certain forum 🙂

Well, quite a good unmasking 🙂 , and a nice surprise for Ivy!
Ok, as mostly I do have some issues, let’s start with those:
It’s a little shame that she doesn’t fit back or at least says something before she gets unmasked.
It would have been great if the unmasking would have been shown with more panels.
Also, it always annoys me that the mask seemingly goes off that easy, I mean the cowl shouldn’t go off like that with a quick yank.
The material below the chin should prevent that. Here it looks like that material just ripped very easily as there is such a gap in it.
But ok, enough nitpicking… it’s so rare that you see Batgirl getting unmasked by a villain! And here it is not just any villain, it’s Poison Ivy!
Glad that Poison Ivy immediately recognizes Daphne and is so shocked about the reveal. She is shocked much more than Daphne… which tells a little bit that Daphne is just pretending to be THE Batgirl.
Normally Batgirl should be completely devastated if she gets unmasked like that… after all this could be the end of her crime-fighting career.
And there is actually more… earlier in the comic:
Check out the pages before you continue!
A nice masking as Daphne puts on the cowl, even though we basically only see the end result.
But I do love that Poison Ivy is disguised as a Police Officer by wearing a full face mask!
Damn, I really wanna see a much slower unmasking with such a mask one day.
Would have been great if Batman grabs into that mask and would rip out the lower part over her real mouth for example.
Or her mask gets more accidentally damaged during a tussle and he then would realize that it is a mask and would do everything to fully unmask her.
However, quite a great issue in that a new Batgirl shows up, Poison Ivy gets unmasked and then Poison Ivy unmasks “Batgirl”!
Well, the game got a review from my favorite gaming site/PC magazine and it got a 70 (out of 100).
That isn’t totally bad… but far away from anything the older games from the Arkham series had reached.
Seemingly the story of the game goes fully downhill after half the game and the fights are done much worse in this one in comparison.
Plus the game seems to have some technical issues.
Glad that I waited for the test instead of getting too hyped over it.
I will buy that game when it is much cheaper. Until then they can patch it up and hopefully improve at least some technical issues.
So, all the Batgirl action with all those different costumes will have to wait…. at least for me.
Pretty disappointing.
Two more Batgirl pictures with different costumes/cowls:
Duela, Carrie Kelley, and Turner Hayes will be played by Olivia Rose Keegan, Navia Robinson, and Oscar Morgan (left to right)
And Carrie Kelley is in the comics a sidekick of Batman and is wearing big, colored glasses…I guess as a disguise…but well, it’s certainly not a mask for me:
Honestly, I didn’t know any of these actors until now, but looking forward to seeing what they can bring to the screen!

There are also rumors that Stephanie Brown will be in the show as well….and she is the heroine “Spoiler” in the comics (mostly)!

It would be SO great if she would be in the show! I especially love the full-face version of her mask…. but I think the chances they would use such a mask are verrrrry slim.
But the ninja-style mask is very interesting as well for me.
And the show has a LOT of potential for even more masked women in it! I mean perhaps even Batgirl could be in it!
But as they are making that Batgirl movie, I doubt that she also will appear in this TV show 🙁
I am looking forward to reading and seeing much more about this show as the potential is really BIG!
And my hope is that this show will get a green light for a season order and then season 4 of Batwoman will also be aired in the fall later in the year! That would be perfect!
In the worst case, this show wouldn’t get a season order and Batwoman would be canceled…. that would be quite a disaster for me.
I have seen this one as it came out in …. mid-2016?! Damn, nearly 6 years ago already.
Somehow I didn’t make a post back then as it seemed very difficult for me as this movie has so many minutes of a certain masked heroine!
But, as with the Catwoman: Hunted movie I will focus on 2 selected scenes.
I certainly recommend you to watch the whole movie.
Preview, scene 1:
Batgirl battles…
…bad guy!
That doesn’t look to good for her…

And here is the video:

WATCH the video before you continue! SPOILERS ahead!
Well, Batgirl was pretty lucky here! She managed to stay conscious long enough to lock herself “away”.
Otherwise, this guy could have done quite a lot to her….
However, I really like this peril scene as he uses that odd knockout gas that takes some time to work.
It’s also odd that he sprays that stuff in his own direction also, as his face is right next to hers… but it has not the slightest effect on him, even he was (less) exposed to it, but ok, no big aspect.
The way he presses himself onto her is quite…..sexual….I was surprised that they would have that scene in it.
Batgirl was also lucky that he didn’t go immediately for her mask as she was pretty helpless (picture 3).
But he missed the chance to unmask her…

And I got one more scene for you!

Preview, scene 2:

And here is the video:
–
WATCH the video before you continue! SPOILERS ahead!
Well, luckily I didn’t know about that scene before I watched this movie!
I was really surprised BIG time by this scene…I mean Batgirl having sex with Batman???!
I mean ok, the whole movie is rather for adults than for kids…but holy Batsex, I didn’t think I would ever see that!
Even they only show the …foreplay, but it’s crystal clear what happens/will happen.
Can only guess if Barbara (as Batgirl unmasked herself) has then sex with Batman or Bruce…
But well, I can’t blame them 😉
Two things were quite odd about this scene. First, it’s another example of how careless many masked heroes and heroines get when they are on rooftops.
She unmasks herself on that rooftop! Ok, perhaps there is no tall building nearby, but that is very risky! What if someone sees that through a binocular and sees how Batgirl yanks off her mask (and other things? Very dangerous for her secret identity! And why does she unmask herself in the first place? She could have sex with Batman or Bruce with her mask on.
Also, her mask/cowl seems to be connected to her cape as it comes off (way too easily) as she yanks her cape away. Some more frames of her cowl leaving her face would have been great!
It looks quite sloppy this way from the animators.
However, it’s a pretty great scene and was surely a big surprise as I watched that movie back then.
