    Benes and Simone return to Bird of Prey

    BirdS of Prey.



    I think this is great news. Nice to get Babs back front and center in a book again. Any guesses for the blacked out figure? Spoiler/Batgirl/Stephanie too obvious a choice?

    With the hair looks like Batwoman.

    Simone/Benes did a great run, although I like how Benes draws homen, he did go overboard with the butt/crotch shots.

    I'd like to see Chuck Dixon come back on a DC title, but I doubt that's in the cards.

      wooo hooo, That was one of my favorite books. I'd like to see manhunter in there too

      my vote is it's batwoman and they'll pull her out of Detective. Batgirls series is a regular series right?

        I love the neck to crotch cameltoe on the chick in black. Is that Canary....Zatanna with blonde hair.....their daughter Cantanna? Dig the pucker lips too. Is that the Red Hood sneaking up on them?

          If that is Red Hood, there is a possibility that the other figure is his sidekick Scarlet.


          I think I'd rather see Jason Todd shake things up in Secret Six.

          Once Dick gets back in the Nightwing suit, I think he'd be a great addition to The Birds of Prey.

            Good news....Birds of Prey has floundered for a while since Simone left....I "wonder" if this new assignment means Gail will be leaving another book? IMO her Wonder Woman has floundered since she signed up.

                          This is the best news I've heard from DC in awhile. I'm thinking the flying silhouette is DOVE, they've been playing her up in Blackest Night. And I'm so glad to see Lady Blackhawk back! I SO want a Women of the DC Universe Lady Blackhawk mini-bust!

                            ^ Good call! And the other figure is Hawk (Hank Hall) maybe? Makes sense especially with the "Birds of Prey" motif.

                              The cape doesn't look much like the classic Dove. Looks real Bat-like.
