Oracle not the software

Oracle ... not the software ... is my favorite Super Heroine!
Copyright DC comics 2007 - 8
This image is the cover of a recent BoP ... that's Birds of Prey issue. Yes that is a wheel chair Oracle is sitting in! The two young ladies at the back are Misfit and Black Alice.
Dont worry despite the cover the isse is not one big long cat fight. The interior art is by Nicola Scott an Australian artist!
Who is Oracle? She used to be Batgirl! She was a support person and info broker for various supes and metas in the DCverse using her computer skills to find information.
Now as well as being a kind og super hacker she also runs the Birds of Prey helping superheroines of varying ages and talents. The Birds fo Prey over the years have included Blakc Canary Huntress Manhunter even Catwoman andLady Shiva briefly and the core group are currently Huntress and Zinda Blake a gifted and fearless pilot along with Oracle and thier "apprentice" Msift an orphan with the ability to teleport!
This is one of the few girl and woman friendly mainstream super hero books!
I wish DC would do a GOOD BoP movie instead of the JLA project!!!
