Batgirl and the Birds of Prey #1
This volume collects the first six issues of the Rebirth-era Batgirl and the Birds of Prey series, written by Julie Benson and Shawna Benson with art by Claire Roe. The story follows Batgirl (Barbara Gordon), Black Canary, and Huntress as they investigate a mysterious new figure using the Oracle identity, forcing Barbara to confront her past while the team battles the villainous Calculator. It's a modern take on the classic Birds of Prey dynamic, blending action and character-driven drama within DC's Rebirth continuity.
In "Rebirth," Batgirl teams up with Black Canary to track a mysterious new Oracle in Gotham, a cyber-expert aiding the mob. Their investigation brings them into conflict with the Huntress, whose personal mission clashes with Batgirl’s pursuit of the truth.
In "Part One: Dead of Night," the Birds of Prey are drawn into a violent mystery when they discover Terroni's body, his death a brutal message from the shadows. With tensions rising and old wounds reopening, Huntress pushes for vengeance against mob boss Santo Cassamento, while the Asp makes it clear that loyalty to the team may cost them their lives.
In "Part Two: Learn to Fly," Barbara Gordon leads the Birds of Prey on a risky mission to uncover the identity of the new Oracle, ignoring warnings from both Batman and Jim Gordon. As the team tracks down the server farm, the location erupts in chaos—leaving them scrambling and Fenice dispatches her snake allies on a new, mysterious assignment.
In "Part Three: All Your Life," Batgirl and the Birds of Prey race to stop Fenice’s next move—only to find themselves outmaneuvered. With the snake villains attacking a safe house where Gordon is protecting Santo Cassamento, the team arrives just as the mob boss is taken, leaving them scrambling to catch up.
In "Part Four: Waiting for This Moment," Batgirl uncovers the truth behind Huntress’s identity as Helena, drawing her into a painful past shaped by a deadly family feud. As the Birds of Prey move in on the new Oracle’s abandoned headquarters, the tension mounts—both from the mission and the secrets now laid bare.
In "Finale: Arise," Oracle recruits unlikely allies from Gotham’s underworld to stand against Fenice and her serpent-like enforcers, uniting the Birds of Prey with the city’s police in a high-stakes showdown. When Huntress unmasks Fenice, revealing her true identity as Maria’s daughter, the team must grapple with the aftermath—accepting the new Oracle’s aid while wondering what deeper secrets he might still be keeping.
