I'm torn. On the one hand, I'm sick of Birds of Prey getting the sloppy seconds (or thirds, or eighths) of the Batman universe, even though "Zero Year" is clearly affecting a lot of other non-Batman books, like The Flash and Action Comics. On the other hand, I do like the description in that write-up, so maybe it'll work out!

Are you kidding me?!! Black Canary is going to appear in a Batman book drawn by ALEX MALEEV?!! This news made my day! I just read Hurwitz's first story arc and I like what he does with villains. I am thrilled to see him taking on Clayface--and with Maleev, one of my favorite artists in the business--and with Black Canary guest starring! This should be great!

Despite my mounting hatred for the darker, bloodier DC Universe, I have really, really enjoyed the digital first Injustice comic. And Black Canary's costume--within the context of the video game redesigns--is pretty good, much preferred to her New 52 look!

This isn't a Black Canary comic, but Dinah was involved romantically with Doctor Mid-Nite for a time in the pages of JSA. Plus, who needs an excuse to plug a book written by Matt Wagner?
Thanks for the heads up, I had no Idea about Dr Midnite will be picking up the book!
