After Batman retired his crime-fighting mantle when the love of his life, Catwoman is murdered, and his protege Batgirl is gunned down in a vicious attack by The Joker, a new generation of heroines are born. Barbara Gordon, formerly Batgirl and now confined to a wheelchair reinvents herself as Oracle, a master of the cyber realm and a brilliant analyst . Huntress, the daughter of Batman and Catwoman, dons her father's mantle and patrols the rooftops and streets of New Gotham City in the dark of the night. And lastly, Dinah, a runaway who comes to New Gotham City looking for answers to the visions that haunt her dreams at night. Under the mentor-ship of Oracle and Huntress, Dinah develops her mental meta-abilities to become an invaluable member of the crime-fighting team, known as The Birds Of Prey.
