    No she isn't. They don't even have the same skill set or fill the same niche.

    Babs herself disagrees. Breathe.

    I will echo others here, I don’t like Harley here and if she wasn’t here I would for sure pick this up. Now it’s a maybe.

    The only thing I like about it is Cassandra Cain and that's mostly because Damion Scott's art on her Batgirl book blew me away at the time, but I haven't followed her since.

    That Canary costume doesn't look as cool or modern as the Gary Frank version it owes a lot to.

    I've already read Barda as a Bird before.

    I don't care about Wildstorm characters and don't want to learn about it them.

    Harley I could never hear about again and be happy with it.

    So no.

    The characters look imo in general not that great in this art style...

    I think the selected team doesn't matter, what's really interesting is what will such a star team like Kelly Thompson and Romero tell with this team (also, stealing them from marvel, lmao)

    I voted 'definite pass' because I don't collect much these days and a book has to add something I really like in order to check it out - like Waid's new Teen Titans series that is including Bumblebee in the line up (and the over all look and tone of the book appeals to me). Harely doesn't fit in my idea Birds of Prey series, but neither does Barda -- and I'm at least a fan of her.

    Even though this isn't the BoP team I was hoping for I'm really looking forward to this book. The creative team is stellar so I have faith it will be good.

    Ooh, a poll. I voted definite pass. The moment they announced Harley Quinn for this book they lost me as a reader, full stop.

    ^^^Same.

    I’m actually a fan of Harley but this just seems like shoehorning her in for a cheap pop. Add Zealot to the mix, who I’ve never been a fan of and that’s a wrap.
