This is a list of the Alternative versions of Barbara Gordon appearing in stories published by DC Comics in which the comic book character has been placed in non-canon storylines taking place both in and outside of mainstream continuity. Various alterations of the Barbara Gordon character have appeared in storylines published in mainstream continuity titles. These variants often appear in stories which involve time travel, such as the crossover limited series ''Zero Hour: Crisis in Time'', a follow-up story preceded by the 1985 limited series ''Crisis on Infinite Earths'' which altered mainstream continuity. Notable imprints of DC Comics such as Elseworlds and All Star DC Comics have also featured alternative versions of the character. The Elseworld's imprint has featured Barbara Gordon in starring roles such as the popular noir-style storyline ''Thrillkiller: Batgirl & Robin'' and the one-shot comic ''Elseworld's Finest: Supergirl & Batgirl''. After DC Comics launched its All Star imprint in 2005, an alternative Barbara Gordon was adapted into Frank Miller's ''All Star Batman and Robin the Boy Wonder''. In addition, another version of the Barbara Gordon character was set to star in the now cancelled ''All-Star Batgirl'' comic book series. ==Mainstream continuity== *''Zero Hour: Crisis in Time'': In the company wide crossover limited series ''Zero Hour: Crisis in Time'' (1994), an alternative Barbara Gordon, unaffected by the events of ''Batman: The Killing Joke'' fights alongside the mainstream DC Universe heroes as Batgirl. During this time, she forms a strong bond with Green Arrow, the older hero seeing a lot of himself in her willingness to challenge such powerful foes as Parallax without any powers. During the struggle against Parallax, she sacrifices herself to save Damage, with her timeline being erased as the universe is re-created by the new Big Bang. As the heroes return to their own time, Green Arrow promises that, even if she never existed, she will never be forgotten. This version of Batgirl was honored with post-mortem membership in the Justice League. *''Batman'' #666: In "Numbers of the Beast" (by Grant Morrison and Andy Kubert), Barbara Gordon is the Police Commissioner in a dystopian future Gotham. She managed to become Commissioner, despite still being paralyzed from the waist down, and needing a wheelchair in order to move around. She wears her hair short, making her appearance closer to Ellen Yindel, the commissioner in ''The Dark Knight Returns''. Gordon dogs Damian Wayne, who has taken up the Batman mantle after the death of his father. When asked why she pursues Batman so ruthlessly, she replies, "That monster was responsible for the death of... of a good friend. He can't be trusted." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alternative versions of Barbara Gordon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
