scans_dailyReally? Nobody's posted anything substantial from Birds of Prey 11 yet? Just the bits and pieces of continuity dovetailing with Batgirl?
Well. Let's fix that, shall we? 3 pages of Huntress and Catman doing some dovetailing of their own.
The setup: Huntress is chasing jewel thieves ("Of course there was a jewel heist. It's Gotham. And it's Thursday." ILU, Gail) who've shot a guard and taken a hostage - a severely asthmatic hostage with no inhaler who's a prime candidate for death by misadventure. She's slugging it out with one thug when Catman shows up, looking to revisit that, umm, whatever they had back in Birds of Prey v1 #106-107, I think? Hel maintains she's busy, so Catman agrees to help her hunt.
They find the second thug, and Catman loses points for hitting Rickie's pregnant girlfriend (in fairness, she was leaping at him claws-out at the time), but gains points for getting wounded while taking Rickie down and eliciting the name of a third thug; the fourth crew member, the client, none of them knew.
They track down the last of the thugs, and the hostage.
After a little bluffing, Catman admits it.
"And this one time is forever," text box continues. Deadshot chides Catman for setting up the elaborate caper instead of just candy and flowers, but Tom says he needed to hook Hel on his fight for redemption.
Thoughts?

Date: 2011-04-17 05:14 pm (UTC)Speaking of Batgirls and fashion, what's with Misfit insulting purple as Steph's color? If Charlie wants to be the Huntress when she grows up, doesn't that mean wearing purple?
