The Birds of Prey Podcast

Ashford, Mark, and Laurel discuss issue 69, where Dinah consoles a grieving parent, Helena is sent to infiltrate a cult, and The Oracle is the point guard, directing traffic on this DC Comics court. Give a listen to episode 103 of the Birds of Prey Podcast.

Cool art, a Trinity guest appearance, and a well-written script almost didn't save this book's ratings, for the gross cover and subject matter within the book really ruffled the feathers of Ashford, Mark, and Laurel. Were we too hard on this book? Take a listen and you decide.

You gotta catch episode 101, where we discuss the epic finale of Student and Sensei. The Girls are back in town...and they are taking names!

Feathers and Foes: The Birds of Prey Podcast is celebrating the 100th episode by doing an audio commentary to the Justice League Unlimited episode Death Match, featuring the Black Canary and the Huntress. Also, we revisit an interview with writer Gail Simone and thoughts about Birds of Prey and where it is going.

Thank all of you who came on the show are listened to us.

Mark, Laurel, and Ashford discuss issue 66, where we flashback to Black Canary's family heritage. That's right! The original Black Canary is the feature in this book. We go back to the early days of modern Gotham, where we see Larry Lance, the original Dinah, a young James Gordon...and the Origins of the Laurel in Dinah Laurel Lance.

Episode 98 brings issue #65, where Black Canary is in dangerous company, Oracle is held captive, and Gail Simone has solidified the Huntress's detective game beyond belief. The Birds are stronger together, but not yet. Listen to Laurel, Mark and Ashford discuss Power and Permanence on the Wright On Network.

Ashford, Mark, and our wonderful moderator Laurel discuss issue 64 of Birds of Prey, where the Black Canary has to team up with Lady Shiva and Cheshire. I know, right? Gail Simone writes a great script where the Canary has to combat on one front, and then we have Barbara Gordon being detained by some men who claim to be officers of the law, accusing her of committing treason. Wow!

Ashford and Mark discuss Birds of Prey number 63 with Laurel giving an excellent synopsis as usual. This is an interesting one where we see the team up between Black Canary and Lady Shiva and discovering that Oracle has a secret group of cyber Chat Room friends. Is this more than the Birds can handle? And where is The Huntress? E-mail us at [email protected]

Black Canary flies over to Hong Kong to visit her dying Sensei, and lo and behold, Lady Shiva, student of the same Sensei, is in this adventure of Birds of Prey. And back home at the Clock Tower, The Oracle is having problems with her network, sending Batman and JSA members to the wrong locales, feeding them bad intel and the like.

Ashford, Mark, and Laurel discuss the kind of sort of conclusion to Of Like Minds, which features Savant breaking out of prison, Barbara and Dinah forging a stronger bond, an appearance from Batgirl (Cass) and perhaps Huntress becoming a Member?
