I have to give Miss Simone credit for attempting to write a story about a character finding religion, especially when she herself has admitted to being an atheist. The only Batman books I bought were Batman, Detective Comics, and Nightwing (though that stopped after three or four issues). I mean, back when Cass had just turned evil, I had only broken the surface of mainstream comics and started collecting them regularly instead of doing research on obscure characters from the 40s to 80s, buying the odd issue, and trade paperbacks. I don’t know if I would’ve supported it then. She would’ve adopted an all-white costume, and people would start calling her the Angel of the Bat, Essentially, it would’ve been about Cass finding religion, but not in a hamfisted, Lifetime Movie/Mel Gibson’s Passion sort of way.įor whatever reason, this idea was considered too controversial to the editing staff at the time, and they decided to go with Cass becoming evil and leading the League of Assassins, which was met with universal disdain and resulted in a few years of writers attempting to rectify the damage, only for Cass to give up the Batgirl name and give it to Stephanie Brown. The poor, the mentally ill, the immigrants, the runaways, and the homeless. This puzzle consists of 100 shuffled pages. It was initially published in 1934 (Victor Gollancz, Ltd) and was reprinted in 2019 (Unbound). Cain’s Jawbone, a Torquemada Mystery Novel is a mystery puzzle written by Edward Powys Mathers (1892 1939). From that point Cass becomes truly devout and spends her time helping the downtrodden of Gotham that the Bat Family doesn’t normally deal with. IF YOU PLAN TO SOLVE IT BY YOURSELF, STOP READING THIS PAGE. His faith in God and his compassion really moves Cassandra, and she begins to study the bible. Cass is, at first, unable to comprehend his ability to forgive so easily, and she begins visiting him in the hospital.
It would’ve involved Cass saving a minister from a robbery, and in the midst of her violent beatdown upon the thugs who’ve attacked him, the minister would’ve begged for Cass to stop. This is the pitch Gail Simone made back when Cassandra Cain was still Batgirl. As hokey as it sounds, I’ve teared up a little re-reading this.
