Manhunter! Glee!
Echoed Manhunter Glee!
Can’t wait for the series to re-start in June!
Kickass!
Re-start? Huh? What are they re-starting?
I dropped this book when Gail Simone left. Is it any good these days?
It’s been fairly solid, but I think it suffers from he absence of Black Canary. Strays a little too far from the original concept.
I jumped on this book and it was pretty good. Seems like they’re in transition so perhaps changes are afoot.
@ southbymidwest
the loss of black canar REALLY hurts this book, as she was such a deep, strong character who carried the same weight as oracle. now only huntress really fills that role – zinda is clearly second-tier. i think that there are too many second-tier players in this book, and that hurts it…but that said, this was a bit better than some previous issues.
nitpick: would oracle EVER call someone "jerkface?" yeesh.
Birds of Prey was thoroughly enjoyable,with some fun new villains, a good showing for Misfit and great visuals from the always improving Nicola Scott. It’s a shame Sean McKeever is off the book soon, I like his stuff. (I do hope, though, that this villainous Tuatara is no relation to the old Global Guardian!)
the restart I was referring to was Manhunter’s solo title picks up where it left off with Andreyko at the helm.
As for Birds of Prey I think McKeever’s got a grip on this group and this was a fantastic issue.
The Black Canary dynamic was great, but Huntress, Oracle and Misfit are really making this book worth reading.
