Following Cass getting an attack of adolescent rebellion, causing her to disobey Bruce for the first time, Bruce realises that he's been using her as a weapon just like her father had, albeit for more altruist reasons. To attempt to make it up to her, he gives her the Steph Brown Treatment, and sacks her for what he considers to be her own good, so she can live a life truly on her own terms without being used as a tool by him or anyone else.

Unfortunately, firing someone with no friends, qualifications, or skills outside of those that can be used to fight crime and no clue as to what alternatives are avaliable goes about as well as you'd imagine...







Cass steals a spare costume and goes after a group of drug dealers that she's fought a number of times before, only for Batman to show up to stop her just as the head of the gang bunges a phial of rage drug at them, causing the pair to go on a fight that wrecked a lot of the city.

Which I can post part of tomorrow if people want. ^^

"The man is incapable of expressing any emotion except anger".

I got so tired of that iteration of Batman in the 90's and 00's... so very, very tired.

And it's not just Steph and Cass he did this to, he fired Dick too...

I hope see gets in Young Justice... then COnner would be in a lover pyramid (three point centered at one point in the middle). I don't care if Betty and Babes are in the show as civilians, if "The Batman" can have Batgirl show up before Robin, and somehow have here in College at the end of series while Dick is still in... Middle/HighSchool, than they can just have Cass be Batgirl like that... in fact, her origin story would fit in well with "The Light" and their goals...

Nyssa reiterated this to Cassandra in "Destruction's Daughter," the final arc in Cass' own book. Nyssa said that Batman *only* saw Cassandra as a tool, which is why he never taught her to read or be a "whole" person.

Also, wasn't Bruce hiring and then firing Stephanie really just a plan to get Tim back as Robin?

Wasn't it around the time she got a boyfriend for a little period of time? Of this is still pretty early in her run? *needs to re-read her entire on-going*
