Birds of Prey, Vol. 11: Metropolis or Dust by Sean McKeever, Doug Hazlewood, Nicola Scott
3.0

Wow, this was not as bad as I expected.

I mean, don't get me wrong, other people beyond Gail can write birds of prey. But this is the first one I actually enjoyed. This is the story of the girls working together to stop bad guys. Simple enough but when the first mission goes wrong and someone dies. This leaves the team shattered some, Superman checking in on them, and new villains rising.

It's pretty fun story. if nothing else, I really liked Misfit here. I thought she acted like a Teenager and her powerset is cool. I enjoyed Huntress and Oracle here too, think Sean knew how to write them well. The rest of the team kind of forgettable here and of course the ending builds up but Sean leaves the run so...that's it. A 2.5 out of 5, but I'll bump it to a 3.
