Birds of Prey #14

The Birds of Prey find themselves tumbling through open sky on this kinetic New 52 cover, with Black Canary at the center of a midair freefall, Batgirl swooping in from above, and a gun-firing Black Widow-esque figure and a masked, sword-wielding combatant rounding out the chaotic descent — all set against a dramatic urban backdrop. The cover copy promises the team is "In Freefall Against Condor," teasing a high-altitude showdown in the story "Three Hours of the Condor" by writer Duane Swierczynski and artist Romano Molenaar. Trevor McCarthy's cover art captures the breathless momentum perfectly, making this January 2013 issue hard to pass up.
