Issue Description

Batgirl realises that it's Father's Day, which depresses her. She discovers that her new friend Brenda Miller doesn't really like Father's Day either, and as they talk, the question of her mother's identity comes up. Both Batgirl and Batman suspect that Shiva might be her mother, but they are not sure, and Onyx, although she knew Cain and Shiva at the appropriate time, has no idea if it might be true. Batgirl visits her father in prison, but it soon becomes clear that he'd quite literally rather die than tell her.

Volume Description

Starring: Cassandra Cain as Batgirl. This series continued in Batgirl (2008).

Cassandra Cain became the first Batgirl to star in a regular series after her successful appearances alongside Batman in 1999's No Man's Land saga. The new series was plotted by Scott Peterson and Kelley Puckett, with the latter handling the script, and featured art by Damion Scott. Batgirl followed Cassandra's attempt to become a full fledged crime fighter as Batman and Oracle (the original Batgirl) watched over her and provided help when needed. The opening issue dealt with Cassandra's troubled past and her brave attempt to overcome her upbringing as a would-be assassin.
