Birds of Prey, Vol. 8: Blood and Circuits
by Gail Simone, James Raiz, Paulo Sequeira, Tony Bedard, Nicola Scott
Birds of Prey heats up as Black Canary and Huntress with the help of others face off against their biggest threat yet!
So poor black Alice is trying to be used once more, but this time by bad guys. We knew this was going to happen so Black Canary tries her best to convince her she's a good person. We also deal with Black Canary trying to be a mother figure to Sin. Misfit shows up as the new Batgirl! Last but not least we have a member leave and a few new ones enter. The biggest, and most badass one, is Big Barda. How well does this crazy collection work?
Good: The art stays pretty solid throughout. I liked the pacing, really never boring on this one. The Big exist for one of the team members is both touching and very well done. The new team is pretty interesting, especially including Big Barda. Probably the most entertaining addition as well as good chemistry with the team.
Bad: The second half takes a bit to get used to. What used to be a three woman team grows almost double the size so it doesn't gel right away.
Overall, a very solid and fun addition to the series. While Birds of Prey never blew me away it always remained good to great. I'm excited for this new team. A 4 out of 5.
