[Nicola Scott]

A great review of the real start of your run.

My favourite moment is the scene between Helena and Zinda. GOLD! That Blackhawk lady is one cool cat.

I wish you all the best on a long and fruitful run. It's gonna be so much fun!

I'm gonna miss the Birds :(

Amen. Good work, Tony. And long live Zinda.

#119 Rock Tony. I can't believe IGN gave a positive review. I didn't think they liked anything Yeah, you were right, issue kicked off with a cool ass Huntress moment; taking em down like only she can. Loved the interaction between Babs and Misfit and between Helena and Zinda. Solid gold!

There several discussions around the various boards:

Nicola, you deserve some congrats as well. You'll be missed on this title. Thanks for pouring your heart and soul into the BIRDS. It never went unnoticed! We saw you grow each and every issue. Your destin to go down as one of the best if you're not already there!

Thanks, Nicola! You'll be missed...right up to the moment I get my hands on SECRET SIX #1.

As for that Helena/Zinda moment, I think it worked cuz you really nailed the body language. Zinda's just on another wavelength. None of that Baby Boomer self-absorption.
