"Barbara Gordon was de-aged for Dick Grayson!" Huh...I beg to differ?
If I'm not mistaken, Barbara Gordon got de-aged back in the 1987.
Dick and Kory broke up in the 1994.
Dick and Barbara started to sort of become a thing in 1996 with Chuck Dixon's run. They weren't even exactly a thing, even though they shared some kisses and moments.
Meanwhile, they were also having a bit of stories with other people.
Now, I might be wrong so correct me if I am, but I think they became official in Devin Grayson's run in 2002. Shame because she wrote them rather OC...
I feel like in Dixon's run they were mostly teased as a possible couple. Their interaction are through calls, sometimes Dick goes over to Babs. They called each other pet names sometimes, but he called her more "Babs".
Then, in Devin Grayson's run, Dick mention Barbara being his girlfriend a lot, calling each other sweetheart and handsome, going more on dates, it's kind of implied that he used to go sleep at her place more times?
I think Barbara got de-aged because she was an icon. The Batgirl. Young. Before, she used to be a congresswoman, and she seemed to be at least in her 30s. They should have changed it in Batwoman then. Still, Barbara was a popular icon for young girls and since Jim Gordon also got de-aged, they made her younger too.
So, years between Barbara Gordon being de-aged and DickKory break up: 7 years.
Years between DickKory break up and DickBabs officially getting together: 8 years.
Years between Barbara Gordon being de-aged and DickBabs officially getting together: 15 years.
That's quite a lot of time.
