4. Batgirl And Livewire - Batman: The Animated Series

One of the best things about the final season of Batman: The Animated Series was all of the crossover episodes with Superman: The Animated Series, best showcased with the episode Girls Night Out.

In this episode, Livewire breaks out of a prison convoy taking her through Gotham to prison, so while she's in town, she decides to shack up with Poison Ivy and Harley, who are now living together for reasons they weren't allowed to explicitly state back then.

Thankfully the solo Batgirl gets some much needed help from Supergirl, and the two take on the three villainesses.

It all ends in an awesome fight in the zoo where the three baddies are hiding out in, where Batgirl manages to actually take down Livewire - someone who can manage to fight Superman to a standstill - on her own. Granted she has some help from Supergirl wrecking the place during her fight, which gives her a nice supply of water to toss Livewire into to finish the job, but hey, it's still her victory.
