 Barbara as Batgirl | |
Barbara Wilson is a female Human who lives in the 24th century. Barbara is the second Batgirl after Barbara Gordon. Batgirl was Batman's second sidekick, a former gymnast, and one of Bruce Wayne's apprentices who once fought crime alongside him and Dick Grayson under the alias Batgirl. She eventually graduated into becoming a solo vigilante.
She is the niece of Alfred Pennyworth.
Biography
Barbara Wilson is the daughter of Margaret Wilson, who is sister to Alfred Pennyworth. Barbara and Alfred have apparently been close throughout Barbara's entire life, particularly when Barbara's mother and father died in a shuttle accident. While Alfred lived in the United States working as the Wayne Family butler, Barbara remained in England attending boarding school. However, she felt particularly disgusted at the idea of her uncle working as a servant, and upon discovering that Alfred was ill with a rare disease, flies to America in order to 'free' him.
Upon arriving in the States, she meets Alfred's 'other family', Dick Grayson (who is immediately attracted to her, and vice-versa) and Bruce Wayne. Bruce invites Barbara to stay, during which Alfred's disease grows steadily worse. While Alfred grows closer to death, he shares with Barbara an encrypted disk, which contains all of Batman's secrets. Barbara immediately hacks the discs, and discovers that Bruce and Dick are Batman and Robin, and that Alfred planned for her future involvement.
Donning a suit designed for her by Alfred, Barbara, now under the guise of Batgirl, defeats Poison Ivy and saves Batman and Robin. Together the three of them defeat Mr. Freeze, who was attempting to create a new ice-age, and retrieve the cure for Alfred's disease. Barbara then officially joins the family and the team.
Personality
Barbara loved her uncle dearly and didn't understand how much Alfred also meant to both Bruce and Dick, as he had been a father figure to them in the same way as her, especially as both of them had also lost their parents. She thought that her uncle was nothing more than a mere servant and slave to them, which was the main reason she took up racing to earn enough money to "set him free from a dismal life of servitude," especially when she finds out about his sickness. She was proven wrong when Alfred told her that his life had been wonderful and he had been given the family he had always wanted. She most certainly changed her mind after seeing how they all worked together to save Alfred by obtaining a cure from Mr. Freeze.
Batgirl is shown to be loyal, determined and ready to spring into action, especially if it means saving and protecting the people she cares about.
