August, 2001.
Kelley Puckett, Damion Scott, and Robert Campanella
Price: $2.50 US, $4.25 CAN
Synopsis: This issue starts off with a POW!… as Batgirl herself is punched in the face by a thug. Of course, it only takes her a split second to beat the thug up for that. Later, while training with Batman, the Bat tried to figure out why Batgirl couldn’t block the punch. Oracle suddenly pops up on the computer screen and tells Batgirl and Batman that she knows where the government is keeping the records of Batgirl beating up government agents out of costume. After a debate, Batman finally allows Batgirl to go steal the records. At the government complex, Batgirl (without her costume) breaks in the James Bond way and steals the records. NICE! Meanwhile, Oracle and Batman debate about why Batgirl is having trouble. Oracle suggests that Batgirl may need to have some time off and get out in the sunlight. And, she may be right as we watch Batgirl peek out at the world from a manhole. Back in the Batcave, Batgirl is happily playing with a rose. Batman appears and gives Batgirl information about the government agent who tried to figure her out, etc. At the agent’s home, Batgirl shows up and beats the crap out of him. Later, Batgirl and Oracle spend some time at a café. “It’s a beatiful day, isn’t it?” “Yes.”
