One woman fought crime valiantly as Batgirl before finding a new role as the all-seeing Oracle. The other stalked the dark streets of Gotham as Catwoman, earning a living by stealing from the rich.

Now they must forge an uneasy alliance in a 2-part Prestige Format miniseries titled BIRDS OF PREY: CATWOMAN/BATGIRL and BIRDS OF PREY: CATWOMAN/ORACLE. Written by John Francis Moore (CATWOMAN, BATMAN FAMILY), these two special issues explore the relationship between the diametrically opposed vigilantes in the past and present.

The first part, BIRDS OF PREY: CATWOMAN/BATGIRL, featuring art and cover by Darick Robertson (TRANSMETROPOLITAN) and Jimmy Palmiotti (21 DOWN) with a cover by Robertson, takes place in the past, when Barbara Gordon filled the role of Batgirl. Part 2 — BIRDS OF PREY: CATWOMAN/ORACLE — features art by Dave Ross (BIRDS OF PREY, Daredevil) and Palmiotti and covers an encounter in the present, with Gordon now acting as Oracle.

When a string of prostitute murders baffles the Gotham police, the two women come together in an effort to stop the heinous crimes. But their investigation brings them face to face with a greater evil than either of them could ever imagine or hope to defeat alone. Can these women successfully overcome their opposing natures to defeat a common enemy, or will their differences lead them to destruction?

This project is supported with trade and house ads.

BIRDS OF PREY: CATWOMAN/BATGIRL and BIRDS OF PREY: CATWOMAN/ORACLE form a 2-part Prestige Format miniseries edited by Matt Idelson. The 48-page BIRDS OF PREY: CATWOMAN/BATGIRL arrives in comic-book shops February 5 with a cover price of $5.95 U.S.
