Raised to be a weapon. Determined to become a hero. Cassandra Cain’s journey begins here.
Panel Bound Comics proudly presents our exclusive cover edition of Batgirl: Cassandra Cain Omnibus Vol. 1, celebrating one of Gotham’s most beloved heroes with artwork by Damion Scott and Robert Campanella, originally featured on Batgirl #1 (2000).
Voted #1 in the 2025 Tigereyes Most-Wanted DC Omnibus Poll, Cassandra’s early adventures are coming together in a 944-page hardcover—and we’re thrilled to be part of the celebration.
The beginning of Cassandra Cain’s story
Trained from childhood to become an assassin, Cassandra Cain grows up surrounded by violence and expectations she never chose. When she rejects that future, Batman and Oracle help her find another path: becoming Batgirl.
Protecting Gotham will test everything she knows. Criminals and assassins are only part of the challenge. Cassandra must also learn to trust, build friendships, and discover who she can become beyond the life her father planned for her.
Combining explosive martial arts action with a deeply personal story of redemption and belonging, these adventures follow Cassandra from her origin into the opening chapters of her solo series.
Why we chose this cover
For Cassandra’s first omnibus, we wanted a cover rooted in the stories readers fell in love with.
Damion Scott and Robert Campanella’s artwork from Batgirl #1 captures Cassandra in motion above Gotham, her cape and grappling line sweeping across the skyline. Paired with the bold yellow Batgirl masthead, it carries the energy and unmistakable identity of her original series.
Bringing that image to this edition celebrates both the character and the creators who helped define her. For longtime fans, it’s a return to the beginning. For new readers, it’s an invitation to discover why Cassandra means so much to so many.
