Batgirl info

[Cactusjack1999]

Does anyone know of a place that has synopsis of the last 20 odd books of the new Batgirl comic. I'm kinda in trigued by it and am think of checking it out if it's any good.

Failing the SYnopsis' hope bout a bio on the new BG?

[Cassandra]

my pleasure-
Cassandra Cain (the new batgirl) first showed up in No Man's Land- she worked as one of Oracle's scouts.During an attempt on Commisioner Gordon's life it came out that the girl (who, while physically capable of speech, had never learned to talk) was the daughter of Cain, a well known assasin that had taught Batman to fight (a long time ago).
Cain had raised her in silence believing that she could learn to understand body posture as an actual language. It made her an unstoppable fighter, because she could 'read' what a person's body was about to do before they even moved.She was trained as an assasin, but after her first kill (at eight!) she ran away and swore never to kill again.
Batman, unaware that she was a killer, made her the new batgirl with Oracle's blessing. Unfortunately, after a run-in with a curious telepath, her thoughts were re-ordered so she could speak, and understand speech. While this did not affect her skills at attack, it wiped out her defensive skills, so batman put her on a regular training schedule and took back the costume. Feeling like she was missing a part of herself, in desperation she sought out Shiva ( an assasin who shared a similar talent of fighting). Shiva agreed to help her with one condition- in one year they would fight to the death to see who was the better martial artist. Batgirl agreed, and got back her costume, but the big fight is coming up next month......

Maybe more than you wanted, but oh well, I can't help it, she's my favorite....
