Barbara Gordon, Batgirl Is Oracle Again in Batman #100 (Spoilers)

We have it confirmed from the usual sources. Barbara Gordon stands in the Clocktower in Burnside, as Gotham burns, courtesy of The Joker War. She picks up her glasses. She sits at the computers and talks into the microphone. "Okay, it's time to let everyone know that Oracle is back online". That's how next week's Batman #100 by James Tynion IV and Jorge Jiminez begins.

She does have full use of her legs now. But Barbara Gordon, for one issue at least, returns to the role she played as Oracle in the Birds Of Prey. Monitoring the situation, barking warnings, suggestions and downright orders. And in the middle of the Joker War, with so many of the Batfamily at play, absolutely essential.

Going forward, I don't know. Batgirl #50, out next month, is the final issue of that comic book. Also Cassandra Cain, in both The Joker War and Batman #100 is seen in a Batgirl costume sporting the Batsymbol on her chest, something she continues to wear in 2021. What her chosen superhero name is, I can't be as definite about. But she certainly looks like a Batgirl.

Anyway, just thought you'd like the tease. Batman #100 is published a week on Tuesday. It'll all come out then.
