DC Comics released Birds of Prey #24 today with the cover featuring Black Canary, Batgirl, Big Barda and Sin. Vixen, Harley Quinn and John Constantine also appears. Here's the official summery: "The Shadow Army has had the upper hand from the jump, but the jump is long past, and the Birds are ready to get their people back and throw down like it’s personal. And yeah, it is."
This issue also features a three-page Worlds Collide chapter with Batgirl, Wonder Woman, Catwoman and Nightwing.
I didn't pay much attention to the new Birds of Prey #1 that came out in September from DC Comics. Maybe it was because the new team consists of Black Canary, Batgirl (the Cassandra Cain version), Harley Quinn, Big Barda and Zealot (you remember her from WildC.A.T.S. right?). Dinah gathers the women together in order to find her sister, Sin. John Constantine shows up in Birds of Prey #2 to help out Dinah and King Shark shows up towards the end. What really drew me into the series is the cover of #3 because it has that very worn and used look to it plus the Birds look to be facing Wonder Woman. She does appear within the issue along with Green Arrow, who was last seen at the beginning of the first issue.
Birds of Prey #3 came out today and I realized that I had not posted about the Birds of Prey since 2014.
"BLAM! KRACK! POW! Look out-it’s…love?! Falling in love is rough, even for DC’s greatest. Watch as Batman and Catwoman, Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor, Mister Miracle and Big Barda, and all the rest of your OTPs fight in vain against the all-powerful forces of romance (and super-villains)! Even Amanda Waller fights the urge to bail on her mystery date. We guarantee that this Valentine’s Day, someone’s taking a shot to the heart-from Cupid’s bow!"
