What does everyone think about Batgirl? She is my favourite Batman character ever. I just love the way she looks in action and has one of the most complex histories in the Batman family. The new Batgirl, Cassandra Cain, is the best Batgirl. I just love it how she didn't know how to speak at the begining, but an encounter with a Metahuman changed all that and how she's learning. The costume is also great. The 1st Batgirl, now known as The Oracle, is also good, and it's good to see the old Batgirl teaching the new one. Let's hope we see her in some more intresting storylines. I just wish she was in Hush, but maybe she'll be in the sequal...

She's Batgirl. Well, you probably guessed that by the context. Cassandra Cain was trained for combat from birth by her father, the assassin David Cain. She learned to read people's body language, but never learned how to speak. She was so traumatized by her first kill that she ran away, ending up in No Man's Land, where Oracle recruited her. She eventually learned to speak thanks to an encouter with some sort of meta, which I personally think was a complete cop-out.
To answer the original question, I like Batgirl, although I don't read her comic. I guess you could say I'm a casual fan.
