Birds of Prey #26

The Birds of Prey square off against the villainous organization Basilisk in this 2014 New 52 installment, and the cover by Jorge Molina captures the tension beautifully — Black Canary, Batgirl, and their teammates surge forward on one side while a formidable lineup of Basilisk operatives, including a powerfully built figure crackling with energy and a masked leader, press back from the other. Writer Christy Marx and artist Romano Molenaar bring their talents to "Torn Apart," a title that hints at real stakes for the team. It's a compelling snapshot of two forces on a collision course.
