![]() ![]() ![]() Speaking of Commissioner Gordon, he gets a great line of dialogue during a present-day dinner scene - "A cop's life is huge stretches of boredom, punctuated by moments of sheer terror." Truth! There are also cameo appearances (the sparring scene with Wonder Woman was especially nice) and a flashback story featuring Black Canary's parents and a young Jim Gordon. This is where Huntress jumps in to lend a hand and kick ass. On the other side of the world Oracle (Barbara 'Babs' Gordon) is hacked and then imprisoned in a continuation of the previous volume's story. Of course they're quickly thrown into an action-filled story, which also features the deadly and truly evil Cheshire. Also present is Lady Shiva, another former student who is sort of a dark opposite to BC. 4: Sensei and Student, Black Canary journeys to back China to pay respects to her dying sensei. Maybe it's too early (in the run of the series) to say, but I think the pairing of writer Gail Simone and the 'Birds of Prey' ladies is my favorite from any graphic novel title I've read in the last two years. ![]()
