Batgirl, Vol. 2: A Knight Alone by Koi Turnbull, Damion Scott, Kelley Puckett

4.0

I was a little iffy about Cassandra Cain as Batgirl, because for me Barbara Gordon is my Batgirl--and she always will be. I read Silent Running and enjoyed it but didn't love it. This was much better than the first volume, exploring her pain and struggle to become Batgirl, training with Oracle and Batman until she's ready. It's a darker story and really solid.
Puckett brings in some more of Cassandra's origins and develops her Batgirl mythology. She's no girl scout, seeking Batman's approval above all things or playing by the rules. She reminds me a lot of Damien, in fact.
So, while Cassandra Cain isn't the ultimate Batgirl for me, she's a good one and getting better.
