One is wanted for a murder she didn’t commit. The other is on the run because she knows too much. They are Dinah Laurel Lance and Ev Crawford – a.k.a. Black Canary and Starling – and together, as Gotham City’s covert ops team, they’re taking down the villains other heroes can’t touch. But now they’ve attracted the attention of a grizzled newspaper reporter who wants to expose them, as well as a creepy, chameleon-like strike team that’s out to kill them. Don’t miss the start of this hard-hitting new series from mystery novelist/comics writer Duane Swierczynski (Expiration Date, Cable).
No Oracle means a major, fundamental change in the team, but the addition of Katana and Poison Ivy certainly makes for an interesting line-up. Swierczynski is a great writer and will add an interesting tone to the title and Saiz is an exceptional artist, so this is a title that is definitely worth picking up.
