Sarah Kuhn and Nicole Goux’s Shadow of the Batgirl reimagines the story of Cassandra Cain’s origin as Batgirl. The story begins with Cassandra – raised to be a mute assassin by her father – hearing a target say the word “daughter” while pleading for his life. It triggers something in her that drives her to flee her life as a weapon, seeking shelter in a library. She meets Jackie, an older woman who runs a Japanese restaurant, and Barbara Gordon, who teaches at the library. Cassandra discovers a found family through them, figuring out who she wants to be and finding ways to connect with those around her.

Like other retellings from DC’s YA original graphic novel line, Shadow of the Batgirl honors what preceded it while offering a story free to explore core characters and introduce them to new readers. Kuhn, an accomplished storyteller, brings more to Cassandra Cain’s narrative to honor the character’s Asian-American heritage. Artist Goux and colorist Cris Peter bring Kuhn’s story to vibrant life with dynamic character and location designs. In particular, they take full advantage of the library setting’s scale for splash pages depicting action. Finally, Janice Chiang and Saida Temofonte’s letters neatly punctuate the dialogue and captions.

actually reminded me of middle/high school (most stories set in middle/high school don't), sad ending but good overall

A beautiful symphony, that falls on its face at the end. The characters are so fantastic, but the ending is just plain anticlimactic. Why did I read all those pages? For that? Boo! A fantastic book gives one an indescribable feeling at the end. A feeling of accomplishment. A feeling that you experienced something. You won't find that here.

* I got this book for review for the publisher for my honest thoughts*

I really loved this read and its take on cassandra cain an batgirl. I also really loved the art style that was created for this graphic novel. I also loved how this graphic novel focused on found family, assisan life. I also like exploring the the batgirl myth. That standout to me was the found fnaimy element and I will def check out more volumes of this series in the future. I really liked her as a character.
