This is a fun group of superheroes, and I‘m liking the story arc so far. Black Canary puts together a team with Starling, Katana, and Poison Ivy, and Batgirl joins too at times. Vol. 1 (first 7 issues) had them trying to find who is controlling people‘s minds and sometimes struggling to work together.

Enjoyed this origin story, but just also kept hearing the Arrow-verse versions of some characters, like the Canary. Not a bad thing!

This is one of the pair of Crested Cara Caras that I often see around my neighborhood when I‘m out walking or driving. They‘re huge and so unusual looking I googled as soon as I saw him the first time. I was thrilled to hear about this book to learn more!

Cara Caras are among the smartest birds known, and also sassy and playful. They like solving puzzles and entertaining themselves with new things.

I recommend this for nature lovers 💕🦅🦖.

Crazeedi This sounds so good! I love birds 4y
EvieBee Awesome! I‘ve gotten into bird watching lately and bought my first birding books! Will definitely look into this! 4y
DivineDiana I watched an online interview with the author about this book from a local book store. I was fascinated! Did not realize that there were any in the States! Which State is your home? 4y
Soubhiville @DivineDiana I live just north of Austin Texas. Apparently the crested Cara Caras are moving into the states at a slow rate. They aren‘t common here yet, but they are becoming more so. I also heard the author speak on an online book fest panel and was intrigued enough to find the book. 4y
DivineDiana I plan to read it as well. Glad you heard him too! But I am in awe that you have seen the birds, and recognized them!👏🏻😲 🐦 (edited) 4y

I think I enjoyed this more than volume 1. It took me such a long time to get to this, it's been on my #bookspinbingo every month for about 5 months, as I've been in a bit of a comics slump lately.

I saw #BirdsofPrey last night and I wanted more. I decided to start with Gail Simone‘s run although I know she wrote issues in the previous run that started in 1999. DC Universe is great for my catching up on oldies. I think having watched Arrow & Justice League animated series helped ease my transition to characters I otherwise wouldn‘t know and therefore care about much. I stan Barbara Gordon/Oracle/Batgirl because #Librarian. #DCComics #Comics

Day 5 of the #Fallisbooked challenge by @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks and @OriginalCyn620

#Harvest - Gail Simone is the queen of writing creepy comic book villains, and one of her creepiest was Harvest, an urban legend come to life. Harvest was a vengeful spirit who could be summoned if someone shouted her name at the moon and she would drain the life of anything she touched, be it plants, animals, or humans. Scary stuff! 😱🎃👻

OriginalCyn620 Sounds kinda awesome! 🖤 5y

Branwen @DaveGreen7777 You did and they were SO AWESOME! 😁💕 5y
DaveGreen7777 YAY!!! 😀 Gail Simone‘s first Birds of Prey run remains one of my favorite series of all time! I reread all her issues a couple of years ago and her storytelling blew me away all over again! 😱 5y

Thank you to the wonderful @Meaw_catlady for the tag!😺

Anyone who would like to share 7 favorite comic book covers, consider yourselves tagged!

Barbara Gordon (whether she is Batgirl or Oracle) is one of my favorite comic book characters ever, so I love this cover featuring her surrounded by several other DC heroines! IMO, Gail Simone and Nicola Scott were the best writer/artist team to work on this series!

Leftcoastzen Love this cover. 6y
DaveGreen7777 @Leftcoastzen I do, too! 😀 6y

In honour of my Batgirl 🦇 costume for Halloween this year, I decided to break out some of my partner‘s comics, starting with ‘Batgirl and the Birds of Prey‘

I‘m usually more of a Marvel fan, up I‘m slowly finding myself enjoying the DC universe more and more.
Only problem is, we only have Vol 1 🤣🤣🤣
