Cassandra Cain (Batgirl, Black Bat) Appreciation

[Frontier]

So along with 'Tec, Cass also appeared in Batman and the Signal #3 today. It was just a cameo, but we did get some set-up for Hill's 'Tec/Outsiders out of Bruce.

Also apparently the weekly breakfasts are canon and not just a part of Duke's dreams. I kinda love that.

It's nice to know that's a thing, even if it implies the entire Batfamily is more consistently closer and interactive then we ever actually get to see.

The more I read Brian Hill twitter, the more I'm anticipating his take on Cass.

Right on! Bryan is looking like a great, next DC author for Cass fans.

Bryan's thoughts on Cass' fighting are in line with Tom's:

More interestingly on the 'fighting' side of things from Hill's Twitter is how he wants to show each of them fighting with a very distinct style.

Reminds me of how Jay Oliva wanted the Batfamily in Bad Blood to all have a distinct, real world, fighting style in the movie.

Thats cool, but i cant even imagine how cass would fight.

Duke shouldn't even be on this list. What a joke

"When you're done with your pancakes I'd love to chat with you and Cassandra about changing schools ..."

Is Cass even attending a school? Did I miss something?

Considering her upbringing and significant learning disabilities (no writing, no reading, limited speaking) I'd think Bruce would get Cassie a special private tutor. A normal public or private school just wouldn't work.

Duke shouldn't even be on this list. What a joke

I think Duke would be top ten, definitely not top five. Damian, Luke, and Kate would all be over Duke. In Tim's case I'd have him under Duke, Babs, and possibly even Stephanie. current Tim is only a hair above street thug level when it comes to pure combat skill.

Cass, Bruce, and Dick in that order are locks imo. The fourth spot is highly debatable between Jason and Damian. Both hold advantages over the other as far as skill is concerned.

At the very least he shouldn't be in the top five. The guy is just outclassed by most of the other Bat Family members.

Just out of curiosity, what has Duke done and what kind if training has he had where he would be ranked higher than anyone on this list?

[reni344]

Out of curiosity I always wondered why is Tim so low? I have not read many Tim stories but I know he is a pretty decent fighter. And where is Babs on this list? I feel like all the robins would beat out Duke and I think Steph could beat him. I think my ranking would go:

1.Cass
2. Dick
3.Bruce
4. Damian
5. Kate
6.Jason, I think this also debatable
7.Babs
8.Tim
9. Steph
10.Duke I think these could be a debate
