Move to David Cain? --DrBat 16:09, May 4, 2005 (UTC) Oppose - SoM 16:36, 4 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It was requested that this article be renamed but there was no consensus for it to be moved. violet/riga (t) 23:19, 10 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Naming of character[edit]

Does anyone know if the name of this character is in any way related to, inspired by or derived from Ludlum's Jason Bourne? The reason being that the Bourne character's real name was David Webb and his codename was Cain. --BenM 10:46, 13 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I was wondering this very same thing too, whether David Cain could have been a homage to Jason Bourne. Please advise if this is the true background of the character. Jedd the Jedi (talk) 12:32, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Parentage[edit]

Cain is Batgirl's father. This is nothing new. Stop reverting. [1][2] --DrBat 11:08, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The pages show nothing except interaction between characters. For proof, I would like to see specific issues that state that she is the biological daughter, not a 'suggestion' that she may be the biological daughter. Yes, you are correct that it isn't nothing new: The fact that the assassin--David Cain--adopted an Asian(Vietnamese?) child, called her his daughter, and taught her to be a formidable killer. Hence, Cassandra Cain being his 'adopted' daughter.67.169.114.208 04:34, 26 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- It's been established that Cassandra is biracial. Two, it's been established since #37 that she is Cain's biological daughter. Again, this is nothing new. Again, do you even read the series??? --DrBat 11:00, 26 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  - So, if it's established...it hasn't been suggested, right?67.169.114.208 14:33, 26 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - Again, do you even read the series??? --DrBat 14:37, 26 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      - Yes, I do. That is the reason I am making my 'suggested' changes, my friend.67.169.114.208 14:51, 26 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
        So even though Puckett, the guy who created both characters, was trying to say Cass is Cain's father, despite the fact that hints to it are littered throughout the series, despite the fact that the current arc is dealing it (including the fact that Cass is biracial, which would explain the whole deal of him being white while she's asian), ect, ect, you dont consider it important enough to mention??? --DrBat 14:55, 26 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
        For all I know, Cass' actual father could be anyone, just as her mother could be anyone. Still, I'll leave it as you had it--because, yes, it is being suggested. :)67.169.114.208 15:20, 26 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Actually your both wrong David Cain is Cassandra's father and Lady Shiva is her mother. It's a long story but basiclly David thought that great martial arts skill had to do with genes. --96.250.97.95 (talk) 05:00, 15 July 2009 (UTC)AMM[reply]

Cassandra Controversy[edit]

There have been some recent additions of the controversial nature of Cass' story OYL. Where as these are important points to be discussed in the Cassandra Cain article, I feel they are superfluous to the David Cain article, even by mere mention. I hope a discussion of Cass' purpose on the page OYL could come to consensus in the article.
