This page is to go through Stephanie's non-costumes looks under different artists, with commentary by yours truly!

In Detective Comics

Tom Lyle (Detective Comics 647-649)

Commentary: This is Steph's first appearance ever, in Detective Comics 647. This version of Steph looks a lot older than most versions. I dig her earrings, though.

In Robin:

Tom Grummett (Robin 3-5, 15, 16)

Commentary: Tom Grummett is a very competent artist. His version of Steph is not my favorite, but I appreciate how he gave her a believable body for an athletic teenage girl. But, a mini skirt and cowboy boots...I don't care if it was the 90's, you have better fashion sense than THAT, Steph!

Mike Wieringo (Robin 25, 26)

Commentary: As great an artist as Mike Wieringo...sigh...was...some of his Robin work looked a bit odd, like Steph in that second panel. Still, he drew her like a teenager and you have GOT to love that expression. And that first panel? Stephanie is wearing a preppy dress...and a LEATHER JACKET WITH HIKING BOOTS! And she's riding off in a motorcycle. That is so Steph.

Staz Johnson (Robin 41-73)

Commentary: I just love Steph's outfit in the second image. I truly do. It is so Steph. And her expression. And her hair. But that's cuz it looks like mine. Anyway, Staz did a hip Steph, but he does really weird expressions sometimes. That third image is only one example. Poor Tim got the brunt of it, though, Steph wasn't nearly as scathed.

Pete Woods (Robin 74-120)

Commentary: I love Pete Woods's Steph so much. You can tell by how he has the most pictures, right? She is just...very pretty, but at the same time has a normal sized chest and a normal body for an athletic teenage girl. And her clothes look comfortable and cute and like something a practical girl like Steph would enjoy wearing! And I adore Steph with short hair, it's very practical for her mask...and look at the expressions! He's such a good artist! Okay, I'll stop now. Needless to say, Pete Woods does my favorite Steph.

Rebecca Woods Robin #102

...though his sister comes pretty damn close. Steph looks extremely pretty in the first panel, and I absolutely love the cartoony take on WWYJ Steph. Talent must run in the family

David Hahn (Robin #104)

Commentary: This Steph's kind of cute, but her black lips scare me a little.

Francisco Rodriguez de la Fuente (Robin 122-124)

Commentary: There's really not much special about this Steph, except she has some seriously weird facial expressions.

Eduardo Barreto (Robin 80 Page Giant)

Commentary: See that picture? The one on the left is supposed to be Steph. The one on the right is supposed to be Dinah Lance. Hard to tell since they LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME, HUH? Also, Steph has a constant wedgie this whole issue too.

Batgirl:

Jeff Parker (Batgirl #38)

Commentary: I really like this Steph. I don't know why. Her lips are too big sometimes and the art is very cartoony...but I like cartoony. And her EXPRESSIONS. And the outfit is appropriately Steph-ish.

Vince Giarrono (Batgirl #26)

Commentary: I also adore this Steph. Look at her expression in the first panel! Best confounded expression ever! And she's ready to kick some ASS in the second one. She's so cute and cool!

Phil Noto (Batgirl #27)

Commentary: This Steph is kind of squarish and older looking, but she's drawn very well otherwise.

Amanda Conner (Secret Files and Origins #1)

Commentary: Amanda Conner Steph is of course, adorable.
