In issue #10, we saw Batgirl surrounded by a group of supers known as the Disgraced.  Their leader was named Knightfall and she wants Batgirl to join the group.  When Batgirl says no, she orders her death.  And that is where we start our adventure in this issue.

Knightfall’s henchmen go on the offensive and try to handle Batgirl.  But Batgirl is proving to be a challenge for these goons.  Don’t get me wrong, some of them do get a cheap shot or two in, but its nothing that Batgirl can’t handle.  As this is going on the rooftops of Gotham, we pan over to Barbara’s apartment and her roommate, Alysia.

It turns out Alysia was out drinking with Barbara’s brother.  For those of you who do not follow the comic.  James Gordon was a regular at Arkham until recently and he is looking to reconnect with his sister.  But he isn’t all bad; he leaves Barbara a house warming gift after all.  The gift is a cat named Alaska.

Back to the fighting, Batgirl is close to death when Detective McKenna comes to save her.  Strange thing is the members of the Disgraced knew McKenna and let her know it was far from over before leaving the scene.  Detective then tells Batgirl the story of how she met Knightfall and her goons.  She also tells Barbara that there is a mole within the Bat family.  Who could it be?  If you get this issue, you will find out a clue on the last page.

I have really enjoyed Gail Simone’s writing.  She is a talented writer and I cannot wait to see what happens next issue.  I give this issue a 9 out of 10 rating.  Go get your issue today!
