I wonder if BCs marriage to GA will stay in effect after all these changes.

I'm surprised DC hasn't undone it already. I'm guessing they'll get back together after Ollie's troubles are over.

Give it another two years. :evil:

Just announced in the DCU Blogs...

The shadowed figures on the cover of the upcoming BoP #1 will be ...




Hawk and Dove!

Unexpected but totally appropriate. Looking forward to seeing how Gail handles Hank's return.

I'm stoked to see more Ed Benes. His artwork is amazing. I'll be picking issue two later on today.

Two issues in. Overall pretty good. Kind of surprised Gail is killing off some of the former supporting cast.

3 issues in. Pretty good so far. I've always liked Gail Simone's storytelling. I don't like the fact that Ed Benes has used a fill-in artist for the last 8 pages or so in issues 2 and 3. But that's just me being selfish. Ed's such a great artist, I want to see him do the entire book.

If you bought issue 3 but have not read it yet, you should. My copy - and every copy my store got - had 1/2 of Batgirl 12 in the middle instead of the rest of the story. I returned mine today and will rebuy it when the corrected versions come out.

Apparently that is a VERY widespread problem. It wasn't just one or two copies here or there that have the wrong pages. Last I heard it is damn near 70% of the run.

Gail Simone has been asking for feedback and tracking about this one her own website/blog, so there are very concerned parties working on a resolution at all levels.

My store got 1 correct copy out of the 60 or so he ordered.

I'm still waiting for the correction too ...

Any word on when the revised / corrected issue 3 will ship? I think I picked up issue 4 this week.
