Birds of Prey #22 features the team in search of the missing Big Barda whose Mega-Rod they come across abandoned. Eventually the group does run into a possessed Barda while Oracle has her own problems which involve the destruction of the team’s headquarters. Like many DC Comics, we’re still seeing the effects of Absolute Power as the power boost of one of the villains the team comes across is suggested to be fallout from Amanda Waller‘s shenanigans.

Birds of Prey #5

This series has begun to spin its wheels. With the novelty of the team’s makeup worn off and no effort to really explain just what the hell the Megaera is or what it wants (other than Sin‘s body) there’s not much of note in this issue except for repeated sequences of scenes we’ve already seen before, only less effective the second time around.

Birds of Prey #1 comic cover

Offering a Magnificent Seven-style team-building issue, Birds of Prey #1 kicks off a new series with Black Canary needing to put together a group of heavy-hitters for a mission to rescue her sister Sin. The eclectic group features Cassandra Cain, Zealot, Big Barda, and (because I’m guessing someone at DC thought the group needed more star power) Harley Quinn.
