Batman: Batgirl

    (DC, 1997)
™ and ©1997 DC Comics

Barbara Gordon is the beautiful, vivacious daughter of Jim Gordon, commissioner of the Gotham City Police Department. She’s also Batgirl, female sidekick to Batman and a menace to the evil that stalks the night. Or at least she’d like to be. For now she’ll have to settle for riding around with cops and waiting for the right moment to assume her alter ego. But her chance comes quickly after the Joker escapes from Arkham asylum, ready to spread his own brand of hilarious horror on the unwitting citizens of Gotham. Tracking the Joker to his lair, Barbara finds the Clown Prince of Crime to be more than she bargained for, and discovers there’s more to police work than guns and glory.
