Newsarama released the first four pages of Huntress #1 by Paul Levitz, and so far it looks like this will be the only book in DCnU I'll actually be picking up besides Birds of Prey and Earth-2 JSA.

(Though should this really surprise anyone on here at this point? XP)

So far I'm really digging the art in this issue and the writing looks pretty solid. One thing I *am* a bit worried about though is Levitz writing Helena B too similarly to his Helena Wayne version (ie, drugging a guy to sleep for example was more Helena Wayne's modus operandi than Helena B's who is more likely to beat a guy unconscious). But other than that, I am very much looking forward to reading the rest of this issue on Wednesday :)

Plot-wise I do get that. Character-wise though, being sneaky isn't really her style since she usually tends to make a noisier entrance when she does take action.

Character-wise

Well, how much did the reboot affect Helena?

From what is known, the mafia princess background and her connection to the Birds of Prey are still in continuity. Though considering all the drastic personality changes a lot of characters have been seeing lately, you do bring up a very good point. Still I don't think it would make sense to make Helena B more like her Earth-2 counterpart, especially if there's a chance the latter will be appearing in the Earth-2 JSA book. If not for anything else, I think that alone would be a good enough reason to leave Helena B's original personality in tact.
