With the way that Batgirl ended I thought it was clear her life was taking a dark turn.That ending totally shocked me. It was disturbing the choice she made. That comic had an impact on me.<BR/> <BR/>Robin probably had the same reaction that fans had on being horrified by what Cassandra Cain had become. That seems to be the natural reaction. Sometimes even the best of people make horrible choices.<BR/><BR/>It does create some potential for drama, for Batman, Oracle and Robin. <BR/><BR/>For fans that hate what she has become maybe down the road she will be redeemed.

The fact is that maybe both parts says so...I agree. The fact is that maybe both parts says something true.<BR/>Cassandra is a killing machine wrapped in a girly diminutive frame. She was born to kill, lived to kill, and even when she refused to kill, she never was able to stop fighting.<BR/>But that was part of the character. yes, she ran away home after her first killing, but then turned back and killed her own mother. Almost twice. And without shedding a single tear. Without shouting, or cyring, or saying anything.<BR/>Well, Cassandra is no more a mute, but in the last panels she was a crossover between Manga Khan and a transgendered Supes Jr., the Ultimate Emo Kid. She kept talking, bragging about her new turn of life, teasing Robin... she flunked her mission. She killed Lynx, but only to have a "speed date" with Robin. She had her father at gunpoint, and, then, the same Cassandra who refused the killing mercy to her mother hanging her to a Lazarus Pit, started bragging and shouting about "Her formidable plan to kill all the other girls trained by Kane". Then, she took more punches in her head than Lady Cop only to have some pep talk with Robin. Robin escaped, Cain was never found...<BR/><BR/>It's true, they've not made from the "Heroic angelic Cassandra" a Villain, she never was an angel. They made of a mute killing machine searching her meaning to be an ambulant chatterbox wielding the awesome power of tiring her opponent with the Monologue Power.<BR/>I'm not thinking that authors must take away again her voice, but gawd, Lady Shiva never talked so much. Only Superboy Prime and Manga Khan do...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12109838.post-1152940801841878772006-07-14T22:20:00.000-07:002006-07-14T22:20:00.000-07:00Good argument but you lost it the moment you didn'...Good argument but you lost it the moment you didn't mention two things. One, the past history between Shiva and Cassie. Shiva has ALWAYS wanted Cassie to be the one to kill her. <BR/><BR/>Check Batgirl #25, Cassie realizes this and doesn't let Shiva have her day. <BR/><BR/>Now in #73, once more Shiva is asking for her death. She knows she ain't going to be walking away from this, hence why she lays out all the answers for Cassie and goats her into the final fight by hitting the buttons that'll make her fight. <BR/><BR/>And once more Cassie refuses to kill her. Why? It is because what Shiva wanted. What did Shiva say earlier? To not follow her, Batman, or David Cain's paths. Killing her would = Shiva thus this:<BR/><BR/>http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b281/Frost327/Cassie/Fight7.jpg<BR/><BR/>If she was the villain you claim then why even say it? She be smiling right then and there. But no she says sorry because that isn't what she wants thus she spares her mother's life. Thus the smile cause she's following HER OWN RULES. Not Batman. Not David Cain her father. Not even Lady Shiva her mother. <BR/><BR/>She's following her path. Cassandra Cain. <BR/><BR/>Also you lack the first half of the book, where Steph's ghost is informing Cassie of Bludhaven. <BR/><BR/>At that moment she realizes Batman's "No Kill" rule doesn't work for her against criminals. <BR/><BR/>So she IS willing to take a life, but one who deserves it with her own hands as she was built too.<BR/><BR/>Which leds me to the second thing.<BR/><BR/><BR/>My reasons for hating this turn is the fact not because she's a villain but a one dimensional joke. <BR/><BR/>You can't argue that, the writer of Robin blew it horribly.<BR/><BR/>As a villain she sucked. The writer of Robin made her follow EVERY SINGLE James Bond Villain rule there was. <BR/><BR/>She told the hero her massive plan long enough for him to do something. Went on a MASSIVE MONOLOGUE on how she's right and hero isn't. Then when she has Robin cornered what she do? She keeps TALKING and GLOATING. Enough time for Robin to PUNCH HER. <BR/><BR/>Her Cassandra Cain. A woman known for not saying much and acting much. <BR/><BR/>A gal you just showed brutally beat Shiva her own mother without any words said. That's why some fans are more peeved about. The fact that the writer at Robin BLEW this chance at making something. Instead of a memorable villain, this woman who calls herself Cassandra OYL is a joke. <BR/><BR/>Which is proven even more by the fact that:<BR/><BR/>A.) She didn't kill her father when she had a kill shot. <BR/>B.) Didn't go after Robin after the explosion. <BR/>C.) Turned Tail the first chance she could<BR/>D.) In all honesty her campaign to rid the world of evil doers? It only ammounted to a tarnished Crime Lord (Nyssa), a local street gang leader (Lynx), and a low rent killer (her sister). <BR/>Wasting the Brotherhood of Evil (come on a flunkie or two, doesn't have to be Mallah or the Brain) or Penguin would make better sense then the choices she did Robin OYL. <BR/><BR/>What DC did was flip Cassandra Cain fans the finger. Instead of promising us a good villain, anti-hero, or hero what we got was a joke. <BR/><BR/>A shell of something that wasn't even the character we were fond of. THAT'S why a lot of her fans are pissed.

DC doesn't want to try to sell parents on the action figure of the masked assassin girl who killed her mother, and I can't blame them.<BR/><BR/><I> Her transformation in recent stories is entirely due to the writers and editors.

Sure. Do I like that six years later, we've got a character that's gone through a change, especially one that involves being dumped in a Lazarus Pit and coming out crazy (which, you know, <I>happens sometimes</I>)? Yes. It's not like characters that I love have never done anything equally bizarre, and it's not like DC's going back and sucking all the quality out of the Kelly Puckett run. <BR/><BR/>But seriously? The only reason DC doesn't need the Punisher is 'cause they've already got <B>WILD DOG</B>!Chris Simshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08320487883818314339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12109838.post-1152838833396323252006-07-13T18:00:00.000-07:002006-07-13T18:00:00.000-07:00OK, I'm going to try and post a calm and intellige...OK, I'm going to try and post a calm and intelligent response this time.<BR/><BR/>I'll admit that from the time when Batgirl ended, I didn't see Cassandra Cain coming out of One Year Later as a hero. Like marcus, I had her figured as someone who would still try to protect the innocent, but if the threat was dire enough, she wouldn't settle for simply hauling them off to jail. That might work for some young punk, who was wetting himself trying to fight her, but for the more hardcore evil types, like Batman's main foes, she would at least consider the use of lethal force. True, that would probably preclude her from being a hero, but if done properly, such as showing that taking a life isn't something she does lightly, she could be an antihero you can sympathize with. She would still recognize that she had a gift for killing that could help the world, but it needed to be used judicously, as opposed to running around killing every minor drug dealer she sees, like Frank Castle.<BR/><BR/>I honestly think the thing that angered me most about what happened to her in Robin was Beechen wasted so much potential for a better story, that could portray Cassandra in that light, so that it wouldn't be so cut-and-dry that she was Robin's enemy. And it would have tied-in to recent history nicely. <BR/><BR/>The story had some interesting parallels to the 4-part story when Batgirl and Robin moved to Bludhaven after War Games and team-up against Penguin. In there, they get captured and the villains decide to make them fight, for betting purposes. Cassandra reads Tim's plan from his body language, and makes it look like he beat her. But Penguin is suspicious, so we get an image of Tim standing over Batgirl, pointing a gun at her, being forced to shoot her. Much liek we did with Robin and David cain. And Robin does shoot her in the shoulder, and she's able to lie there and fool them into thinking she's actually out of it (whether they thought she was dead or unconscious I can't recall). I figure she learned this ability from her dad, who probably also used it to fool Robin in the recent story. This would tie-in with the fact that at the end of the issue, David Cain is nowhere to be found, but there are a whole bunch of assassins with broken necks.<BR/><BR/>Additionally in the Bludhaven story, after the heroes escape, Tim and Cass have an argument about what they should have done. Tim is concerned about the law and that they had no legal grounds to do anything. Cassandra feels that since THEY knew Penguin was running the gangs, they should have smacked him around a little. Then they start arguing about War Games. Tim feels Batman's idea to control the mobs was a bad idea, and that he should have worked more closely with the cops. Cassandra feels Batman should have more swiftly moved to assert control of the mobs and use them to his benefit.<BR/><BR/>When I was reading the story, I was sure we were going to find out that Cassandra was testing to see if Tim was still as sure of himself as she was or her convictions. Cassandra had taken control of a "mob": The League of Assassins, and was going to use it to protect people. Was Tim still certain that's a mistake?<BR/><BR/>I figured it would ultimately be two people trying to help the innocent, but having philospohical differences, not one of them is the hero, the other a loony villain. I honestly think Beechen - and DC - missed out on a more interesting story, which probably fuels a lot of my frustration with what they did do.<BR/><BR/>Also on her killing Lady Shiva, there is a scene a few pages earlier, where Cassandra asks if Shiva will ever stop killing. Shiva says "That's why I had you." Cassandra would prove to be her superior and end her life as Lady Shiva. What I figured the whole "hang her on a meat hook over a Lazarus Pit" deal was, it was Cassandra giving Shiva a chance to start over. Sort of a "I killed you Mom, like you wanted. Now you can stop being Lady Shiva and start over as someone new." In that light, it seems, I want to say noble, but that's not right. I'm not sure what the word is, but it seems like there's love in those actions. She's giving her mother a chance to live as something other than an engine of death.<BR/><BR/>Of course, that's all my personal interpretation. I guess it really just boils down to me being angry with what they did with her, because I don't feel like it matches where Gabrych left her at the end of her series. I figured she wouldn't be a white hat, but she'd at least not be a villain. Wow, sorry that ran kind of long. Hopefully it makes some sense.CalvinPitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11815632086057048846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12109838.post-1152838729225267862006-07-13T17:58:00.000-07:002006-07-13T17:58:00.000-07:00I don't object to Cassie being turned evil.

They take drastic measures, but feel the ends justify the means.<BR/><BR/>But DC didn't choose to give us that. She instead became a one-note villain, just as a potentially interesting backstory for Kara Zor-El is nothing else but an excuse for sex-ploitation comics.<BR/><BR/>It's the careless manner in which Cassandra was changed that mostly infuriates readers. <BR/><BR/>And I don't think there's any real way to defend her turn based simply on the facts presented in the Robin arc.<BR/><BR/>DC dropped the ball, plain and simple.

By playing things differently, they could have done much good to my favorite character with their "Cassandra takes over LoA" idea. <BR/><BR/>They could have put her in a high profile gig where she gets to show off her best features and her likable nature in comics where she doesn't usually appear, perhaps catching a new fan or thousand. Also, they could have made more <I>creators</I> familiar with her in the progress, perhaps causing better comics about her to be made in the future.<BR/><BR/>They could have reverted some of the "kiddying up" of her that had taken place over the years (I know some like her as the "Batman Whedon wrote", but c'mon, with a backstory like that, you're inherently one of the darkest DC characters). They could have portrayed her as more than a dumb kung fu chick, something that her own series too often forgot.<BR/><BR/>At the very least they could have made her look cool and kick ass.<BR/><BR/>Instead... the words "they ruined character X" get thrown around way too much, but I can't find any other way to accurately describe what happened here. Not only is she a complete and utter lunatic b*tch who kills people because daddy didn't buy her a pony, but she's also suddenly so incredibly incompetent that with two dozen goons she's barely a threat to Robin! How is this supposed to make anybody like her? How's this supposed to <I>help</I> her?<BR/><BR/>The only answer I have is that it's not supposed to help her at all, and DC is purposefully attempting to just run her down - get people to forget what was good about her so she can be killed off.
