Women Wednesday: Batgirl #1 (January 2025)

Batgirl #1 (January 2025) was released today and features Cassandra Cain in her first solo series in nearly twenty years. The issue starts with Cassandra Cain aka Batgirl talking to her mother, Lady Shiva. They are attacked by ninjas in bright blue outfits that call themselves the Unburied. The mother and daughter fight each other and the ninjas before making their escape. There is an explosion at Lady Shiva's temple and they go there to find the high priest barely alive. He tries to warn her before being killed by the Unburied. Lady Shiva takes a stand against them and Batgirl joins her. Batgirl #1 (January 2025) also features "AEW Presents Darby Allin" bonus story with a special appearance by Sting. Overall, not a bad first issue if you are a Cassandra Cain and Lady Shiva fan but I find the Darby Allin story more interesting.
