While Volume 1 was a collection of mini-arcs and one-offs, Volume 2 marks the beginning of the Birds of Prey on-going series. This means Chuck Dixon is still at the wheel – Gail Simone’s time doesn’t start for quite a while – and, unfortunately, it also means it’ll be a while before the Huntress joins the team proper. At this point, the Birds of Prey are comprised solely of Barbara Gordon (Oracle) and Dinah Lance (Black Canary).The book collects the first 11 issues of the ongoing, as well as Ravens # 1.Full spoiler talk below:Issues #1 through #3 tell the story of Black Canary infiltrating a fictitious third world country to bust up a human trafficking scheme (the man in charge kidnaps rich people and then extorts their families and employees to assure the hostage’s safety). Canary meets a face from Barbara’s past, while Barbara gets to know an online personality that may not be as benevolent as he seems.It’s an alright arc that more or less sums up what the Birds of Prey are all about: handling issues abroad that fellas like Batman don’t really have the time or inclination to sort out. It sets them apart from other domestic superheroes in that they regularly violating all sorts of international jurisdiction to get the job done.Following issue #3 is Ravens #1, a standalone story that sets up a sort of antihero version of the Birds of Prey, a group of femme fatale’s lead by Cheshire. I can’t say I was initially very fond of the group, and it isn’t clear as to why this issue is included in the trade paperback until right at the end, when Oracle and Black Canary make a brief cameo to set up plot, which leads us into the next storyline.Issues #4 through #6 revolve around the Ravens and Black Canary getting sucked back through time to the prehistoric age by a crashed Russian satellite that’s leaking Neutrino energy.You can’t make this stuff up.It’s a cray-cray turn of events for the Birds of Prey comic to take this early in its run, and is something I was unaware of going in, so it was a bit of a surprise.The B-plot of the arc revolves around the American government coming after Barbara, who has gotten herself noticed while going on her carefree hacking sessions of the Air Force information database. This particular story has acted as a through-line since the first issue, and it culminates in a bit of a fake out by the end of this arc.Another small through-line since issue 1 revolved around someone spying on Barbara via a bank of mounted wall monitors. This plot too comes to a close during the Ravens arc, but does so in a fashion that makes it feel like it was suddenly dropped. It’s an amusing moment involving Batman and Alfred, but the lead-up made it feel like it’d have a lot more weight than it ultimately does. I thought for sure it was tied to the storyline about Barbara's online hacker friend.The end of the arc leaves threads hanging. I don’t know that they’ll ever come back, but everyone seems to just take it as read that time travel is a thing that can happen and there’s an object out there that makes it possible. But it is a comic book, so okay.Issue #7 is a one-off story in which Black Canary is sent to extract a war criminal from hostile territory so that he can face due process in a court of his peers before his enemies can execute him. This is an interesting issue in that it addresses the moral question of what it means to be an usurper, and how the media portrays war criminals vs the reality of why they’ve done what they have. I would have liked to see at least one more issue dedicated to this storyline, but it was still an interesting read. I particularly like how the narrative takes no stance on the right or wrong answer, instead leaving it up to the interpretation of the reader.Issue #8 is another one-off story, this one delving into the relationship between Barbara Gordon and Dick Grayson. It’s your typical “we can’t be together and you know why†comic book trash. I sort of give it a pass because it was written in 1999, but I’m pretty much over the desire of comic book writers to forcibly separate characters who are romantically linked to one another. It’s a tired old trope. Still, it was nice to see Barbara and Dick interacting on a personal level in an issue that was entirely character driven, with precisely zero in the way of superhero antics.Issues #9 through #11 are similar to the one-off issue #7, except in this case Canary ends up inadvertently releasing Joe Gardner, a half-alien clone of Guy Gardner. This appears to be set after Guy was killed, as Canary is really surprised to find Guy alive before finding out who he actually is. It’s an alright arc that builds toward something bigger happening beneath the surface, something that Canary and Oracle desperately need to be made aware of. It also has a really funny moment where Superman swoops in to save the day before immediately swanning off again (the sort of thing I keep wondering why never happens in these books).Overall a fun read. I can’t wait for Volume 3 to come out… in January of 2017. Dunno why DC decided to delay it out of September, but I’ll be there as soon as it lands.
Black Canary and Orocle with Guest Stars Nightwing and Lois' boyfriend. This is a great collection. Can't wait to read Volume 3.
This is a BEAUTIFUL book from cover-to-cover and BIRDS OF PREY is an absolute pleasure to turn each and every page! And I'm talking about authentic, smile-on-the-face pleasure at every turn of the page. Without revealing any spoilers, if you love to collect the books and art of your favorite character(s) (whether BLACK CANARY (mine!!), ORACLE, RAVEN, Dick Grayson, Guy Gardner, Superman) or favorite authors (Chuck DIXON) and artists (Greg LAND, Drew GERACI, and any other artist(s) who contributed to the Birds of Prey), and even if you already have the individual issues, BUY THIS BOOK!! The combo of DIXON-LAND-GERACI isn't going to disappoint! This volume is SPECTACULAR and reaffirms the reason I buy, read and collect comics -- the sheer quality of the storyline and the art!! But especially the art! (And in that regard, I really hope DC teams-up DIXON-LAND-GERACI on MANY other issues/chapters of the BIRDS OF PREY and/or ANY other DC characters of D-L-G's choice! But in the meantime, just celebrate that they produced these really fun issues, and enjoy the fact that you can add this compilation volume to your comic book collection for easy late-night reading and reference, and thus save your bagged/boarded individual issues for posterity!) : ) *Thank you, DC* for compiling the BIRDS OF PREY issues in volumes. And, parenthetically, I also can say from personal experience that this book makes a GREAT and much appreciated/valued gift -- so buy an extra one or two volumes and always keep them on hand for a perfect last-minute gift idea! You'll be an instant legend among your friends! Guaranteed!! : )
Enjoyable book
Still hunting down the sleaze of the world Black Canary (with Oracle at the assist) stumbles into a slave ring with a twist. These slaves are also kidnapped heiresses, business moguls and other member of the One Percent. The scheme is a good one (forced labor and ransom? Score!)Also included in this volume is a semi-romantic interlude with Nightwing, and the adventures of the female mercenary group, The Ravens, who cross paths with the Birds off and on. And sea monsters, for good measure.Dixon expands all of our troubled favorite ladies and challenges them in less than physical ways. Oracle dodges the military and Batman's babying. Black Canary tries to help people who really need it, sometimes even if they don't deserve it. It's nice to see them come together to a place where they're standing up for people because it's what's right, not because they're invincible or martial arts masters. Dixon also touches on the issues that super powered people would bring, like people suddenly becoming weapons in the nuclear arms race.This volume has its fun moments, but also has a more sober tone that the first book. Still, it's a fantastic read, very recommended for comic fans, and public libraries wanting to build a collection.
