Birds of Prey #125

Frank Quitely's cover for this February 2009 issue of Birds of Prey is an absolute delight — Black Canary and Oracle tear through a narrow European alleyway in a sleek black vintage convertible, surrounded by an absurd hailstorm of assassins, weapons, bombs, grenades, arrows, and general mayhem tumbling in from every direction. The cheeky cover blurb, "Black Canary and Oracle Do Europe on 10 Assassins a Day," perfectly captures the chaotic, tongue-in-cheek energy Quitely packs into every corner of the image. With Tony Bedard writing and Scott McDaniel on interior art, "Hard-Traveling Heroines" looks like a wildly fun ride for fans of the series.
