Batgirl

The complete Batgirl Returns run collects Barbara Gordon's return to the cape and cowl in Gail Simone's defining series. After years as Oracle — the information broker and strategist who defined her post-injury career — Barbara Gordon reclaims the Batgirl identity in a run that addresses trauma, recovery, and identity with genuine emotional intelligence. Ardian Syaf provides dynamic, expressive art. Simone writes Barbara as the most complete character in the Batman family — smart, brave, complicated, and genuinely funny.
