    This is a nice team
    A lot more diverse than your typical BoP lineup
    I wish there was some Harley in there but Miracle Molly is a nice addition she has the look
    Dinah might be stuck with deathstroke for the foreseeable future and we all see how DC is hard about explaining how things work in continuity between multiple books

    The fact that this story is a one-shot, with zero promotion and not even a single cover of the team amongst the 3 different variant covers (Ace the bat-hound got a cover) kind of makes this one-shot seem completely meaningless and less likely to lead into a story.
    The outsiders were on several UL covers and it didn't lead to a book.

    The vibe this entire thing gives is that the editors told themselves "why not? let's keep those characters relevant and group them together for this one-shot". Calling them BOP is just to draw some readers to this story.

    Bringing back (actual) Vic Sage was the best decision DC has made. Totally will be checking out this issue.

    ^This^

    I got excited for a second but if there's no Babs or Dinah then there goes my interest.

    Or at least characters that also share its underline theme. Babs having gone through KJ, Dinah LBH, Helena NML. Rather then just continue to devolve into a DCs generic all female team.

    Diversity is nice, although I don't think that makes it a good team automatically. Keep Harley as far away from this as possible.

    Molly feels more like a BoP villain than a BoP member. She's like the anti-Oracle.

    I mean, I guess I could see Shiva/Dinah, Katana/Huntress, and Molly/Oracle, but that doesn't make them as good a trio as the actual members.

    The only appealing thing about this potentially is them picking up on Shiva's burgeoning respect for Katana after Katana confronts her forcefully soon after Shiva had killed her with SoulTaker.

    Otherwise I echo others with the criticism that BOP is Babs and Dinah. Not Harley effin Quinn or a collection of randos

    A Birds of prey without Barbara or Dinah is like the JLA without the Trinity. Its the Justice League, but is it really?

    And Babs and Dinah are literally the heart of the team.

    I’m hoping this is just for this issue, then Babs & Di hear about it, and are like nah. That’s our schtick, and woop some ass.

    Sadly, we know that it's at least a two issue story, from May's solicits.

    A pity that we never really got just these four operate as a team.


    Starling >>>>>>>>>>> Miracle Molly (and I've not read anything with Ghost but she sounds a snooze and also why when the MCU has already introduced a character by the same name to larger audiences and are rumored to have future plans for her in shows/movies?)

    I always forget Dinah's New 52 costume was a thing.
