Ive always known about Katana but never read her outside of this BoP, so this was good, Pity then that's this is her exit storyline, as her whole story and background is so interesting. Some fine action going on here. Tatsui looks oddly like a teenager out of her uniform.<br />Condor looks interesting also. No idea at this point whether hes a hero or villain, and little indication he would join the team either. Hes a bit like Hawkman with Hawkeye's attitude, just the sort of flinty character the team needs right now. As you say Batgirl doesn't do much, and Canary might be wise not using her Sonic Scream if it causes this much hassle.<br />One thing I don't agree with in this issue - BC allowing torture of that ninja by Starling. Mightve ben better if shed done that when Dinah hadn't been around.<br />One thing Id have liked would've been to have the Birds 'suffering' a bit longer from the virus or whatever it was Poison Ivy infected them with, instead of suddenly getting a cure courtesy of Bats. Character-wise this is shaping up to be a real who-betrays-who-next with Ivy's recent 'twist, plus Starling's upcoming betrayal and the intro of Condor. This is a much less cosy iteration of the BoP we know and love and strangely it fits the mood of the current DCU in tone.karlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07814365568280298681noreply@blogger.com
