Barbara Gordon

Barbara "Barb" Gordon (バーバラ・“バルブ”・ゴードン, Bābara "Barubu" Gōdon), also known as "Oracle" (オラクル, Orakuru), is both a fictional character and tritagonist of the MDC's JA series created by C. B. Cebulski and Jim Lee.

She is the daughter of James Gordon. Providing intelligence and computer hacking services to assist others, she was "Batgirl" (バットガール, Battogāru) until she unrelatedly fell paralyzed from the waist down by Joker's hands.

Unwilling to succumb to her disability, she took her photographic memory, her intellect and computer knowledge to reinvent herself as an information broker to aid others to continue the fight against those wishing to harm others.

"I hope nobody's underestimating me... That's always a bad idea!"

Biography
Barbara Gordon is the daughter of GCPD Commissioner, James Gordon. Barbara was forbidden by her overprotective father from joining the GCPD. Instead, she took on the identity of Batgirl and was a crime-fighting partner of Batman's for years. But that all ended when Joker shot her through the spine. Paralyzed from the waist down and confined to a wheelchair, Barbara adopts the new identity of Oracle, and aids the Dark Knight with her computer expertise, and provided Batman with a constant stream of information in the field to aid in his battle against crime.

Notes & Trivia

 * Barbara Gordon first appeared in Detective Comics #359 (January 1967).
 * Oracle maintains control over the twelve technologically advanced satellites that were created by Lex Luthor during his tenure as President of the United States. She can also access any and all items perpetrated by the Pentagon, no matter how secret, much to their dismay.
 * Despite being paralyzed from the waist down, Oracle went under the tutelage of Richard Dragon, thanks to a tip from a computer programmer dubbed "Matches", and has extensive skills with eskrima fighting sticks, small firearms, and Batarangs; she customarily keeps a pair of eskrima sticks stored in the armrests of her wheelchair as a contingency.
 * Blessed with a photographic memory, Barbara reads dozens of the world's top newspapers and magazines daily. She's also constantly gathering information from other, less public sources, such as the CIA's mainframe, not to mention the data networks of the FBI, NSA and Interpol (all without their knowledge or consent).
 * Barbara Gordon graduated summa cum laude ("with very great honor") with a Ph.D and doctorate in library science at Gotham State University.
 * The first criminal Barbara "caught" as Oracle was a technopath called Ashley Mavis Powell (aka Interface) who was a child abuser and money launder.
 * Harley Quinn has discovered the existence of Oracle and sometimes makes prank calls to her late at night, much to Oracle's annoyance.
