- Though undoubtedly skilled, Stephanie's history as a hero has been, to put it bluntly, a long string of disasters. She has been beaten, tortured, been forced to fake her own death and single-handedly started a gang war in Gotham that spread off to affect all the different series set in Gotham. She means well, and she has potential, but it is pretty understandable when so many heroes and role models keep telling her to give up adventuring. Then, in Batgirl #4, she drops onto the top of a tourbus driving through Gotham and a little girl asks to tell her a secret: Keep up the good work.
- Topped by issue 24, aka the final issue. After waking up in a hospital, with her mother as her nurse, Steph finds out her mom's proud of her and has a good cry because she just recovered from a heavy does of Black Mercy. Then she goes outside. That girl from issue four and some other kids are waiting for her:
 |
Nell (the girl): You never gave up on Gotham. We just wanted you to know that Gotham won't ever give up on you. |

- Her reunion with Bruce at the end of her The Road Home one-shot.
