Batgirl, Volume 1: Batgirl of Burnside by Cameron Stewart
4.0
The Batgirl of Burnside is a fun, action packed, and entertaining comic. I would definitely recommend it for fans of superhero comics, or readers that want to get into reading more superhero genre comics. I’m not too familiar with Batgirl’s back story, so this book was hard to read at times and I was left feeling a bit confused. While it gives readers glimpses of her past there is no real concrete character background given, so my best advice would be to read some other Batgirl comics or research her story.
Batgirl as a person is likable and quirky. She’s super intelligent and is very kind-hearted as she’s always looking out for others. As a superhero sometimes she can cause more damage than actually help-crime stopping (which is not an easy job), but she has the best of intentions. She’s quick on her feet, a skilled fighter, and gets to work with some cool tech gadgets which I wish I had. Like most superhero comics we get a glance at her vigilante life as well as her daily life. This volume also has Batgirl do a bit of soul-searching as she tries to sort out her personal and superhero life. All in all, I loved the artwork, story, and appreciated the amount of ethnic characters/ diverse backgrounds that were presented as well.
