    No Man's Land flashback! I guess they've basically rebooted Huntress to her Post-Crisis version again...with more tan skin.

    The best origin! Well. If we're going with Cry for Blood. Year One is ok, but Cry for Blood is the masterpiece.

    Yeah, Spyral Helena was fine for what she was, but she was never really Helena Bertinelli.

    A few more issues in and I'll make a "Shadows of the Bat" thread. I am legitimately loving this arc so far and it looks like there's more goodness to come.
    "Has Sariel summoned you here, Azrael? Have you come to witness the miracle of your brethren arriving on Earth?"

    "I WILL MIX THE ASHES OF YOUR BONES WITH SALT AND USE THEM TO ENSURE THE EARTH THE TEMPLARS TILLED NEVER BEARS FRUIT AGAIN!"

    "*sigh* I hoped it was for the miracle."

    Dan Watters' Azrael was incredible, a constant delight and perhaps too good for this world (but not the Forth). For the love of St. Dumas, DC, give us more!!!

    I mean, she is Helena Bertinelli, but she was a pale shadow of her to me. I'm glad to integrate her into Huntress's history, but if that was ALL, and that was her new backstory? No, pale shadow.

    I think Post-Crisis Helena was involved with the government at some points, but other than the name and crossbow/cross imagery, she was basically a 100% new character in the New 52.
