Met artist Adrian Sibar at Argentina Comic-Con today. He drew the first six issues of Dylan Horrocks’ Batgirl run, so of course I got him to draw Cass’ mom. Shitty scan because the piece is too big for my scanner.

[Batgirl (2000-2006) #36]

For Cass’ Birthday this year, I didn’t have a whole lot planned like I’ve done in previous years -- part of getting older and getting into your career is the unfortunate reality that time can’t always be dedicated to such things in the near-limitless ways it was before, but there is one thing I did want to make sure I had some time spent on.

I recently sat down and reread Cass’ Batgirl (2000-2006) series, as in I did so this very weekend, to appreciate it all over again and really feel the impact of a lot of its highs and lows. It’s amazing how much age and experience can change your perspective each time.

And of all the moments and all of the truly defining traits that really make Cassandra, to this day, my favorite comic book hero, this one moment in #36 hit me harder than it ever has in the past.

“You can change. You can.”

It isn’t a question, it isn’t a plea outright, it’s Cass’ statement, and it’s the statement that wraps up her character journey for the first half of her entire series.

Comic books, especially monthly ongoings, do not necessarily need a thesis statement to justify their existence. In fact, for the sake of longevity, it’s probably more advantageous for comics if they avoid having one which can limit the scope of future projects, but Batgirl (2000-2006) came out of the gates with the very explicit purpose of giving Cassandra and her journey purpose.

And from issues #1 through #25, what hangs over the series is Cassandra’s suicidal death wish to ensure that every person she meets has the opportunity to live their lives, no matter who they are or no matter what they do, out of the horror she lives with of knowing she ended one man’s life.

Of course, the conflict that defines Cass against all the other Batman related characters who may also be interested in the preservation of life is that Cass does not extend that view to herself. In fact, she puts her life continuously on the line unnecessarily and even throws away her life in a deal with Lady Shiva -- a promise of certain death in the span of a year -- just for the devil’s bargain that she will still have the skills to save as many other people as possible.

After her deathmatch with Shiva, and dying and being revived, Cassandra is able to move forward and reevaluate her own value -- she lets herself get close to others now that she no longer worries about burdening them with her imminent demise, she wants to work harder toward new skills to make her good at being Batgirl (like detective work) now that it doesn’t seem like she’s wasting the last months of her life with a distraction.

And all of this growth is spawned from the realization she makes in #25 that just as she believes everyone else, including assassins and murderers, are worthy of a second chance, are worthy of living to make amends for their past, she had been worthy of that same compassion all along.

Cassandra’s most defining trait as a character is her unending compassion for other people. She judges actions and harm harshly, of course, but the people who commit wrongdoing are always worthy of her baseline love and respect no matter what. It’s a loving nature that genuinely shocks and endears every character to her. It’s the reason, even after surviving horrific abuse and being alone most of her life, she makes the right decisions and is a superhero -- because she always knows innately to do what’s right for others.

But her biggest flaw for the first third of her series is that she has never been good at pointing that compassion and forgiveness in toward herself. And it limited her message, it limited her ability to reach people who, much like herself, were horrified and burdened by their own pasts. She couldn’t assure them of a brighter future if she didn’t believe it for herself.

By this point in the series, by #36, the halfway point for the series as a whole, she did. She could say to someone like the assassin Alpha that there was hope for him, that he could change just like she had. Because she finally loved and valued herself, too.

And, for me, this is what makes Cass and her series so special and so different.

I am one of those people who, for most of my life, had very little capacity for self-compassion and forgiveness. And I struggle with it still today, honestly. I don’t easily let go of things that I don’t like about myself and it limits the ability I have to change and get better.

I can change, though. I can be a better person every single day if I love myself enough to feel like I’m worth the effort.

And so can you. No matter how big of an effort that may require.

So, thank you, Cassandra Cain, Kelley Puckett, Scott Peterson, Damion Scott, and the later writers and artists who also hooked me with Cass’ story -- Dylan Horrocks, Adrian Sibar, Rick Leonardi, Andersen Gabrych, Alé Garza, Pop Mhan, and so many other talented artists and writers, inkers and colorists, editors and more from over the years.

Happy Cassday, hope you all are kind to yourself today to celebrate properly <3
