Default A NEW Birds of Prey? (Lurkers Especially Welcome!)

Okay, all I can say is, after the One Year Later jump, ALL BETS ARE OFF. Some REALLY fun and new stuff is coming up...I can't wait for you guys to see.

But, and let's say this is purely speculative--

--if there were to be a new Bop team, completely new, no returning members--

Who would you like to see in the group?

Amanda Waller.

Cassie Cain if she's not going to be Batgirl.

Some secondary characters,like Looker, Katana(sp?), Mia(Speedy II), but at least keep Zinda.

How about Vixen; she may not be completely new, but she's close enough.

Talking of old Suicide Squad members, what's Nightshade doing these days?

Empress haven't been seen since Young Justice ended, and she would be
at the right power level.

Argent.

Spoiler coming back from the dead and becoming the next Blue Beetle.

Spoiler

Dian Belmont

Lillith (Omen)--because no one's ever done anything interesting with her.

Chase, currently appearing in 'Manhunter.'

And as long as anything goes, I'll put in a vote for Black Canary I.

As long as Young Justice has been mentioned, how about Secret?

Renee Montoya. She's not a superheroine, but I think her personality would work very well with the other characters.

One more idea: Vigilante(Pat Trayce).


Another part of my mind is contemplating a Power Girl, Big Barda, Starfire team...
:rolleyes:

Why not expand the idea? Instead of Oracle dealing with two agents (okay, five if we count Zinda, Savant and his pet bohunk), why not have BoP be a bit larger.

The sheer amount of B and C level female heroes who could fill the ranks are staggering.

That said, Vixen, Katanna, Gypsy and Terra all get my vote.

Fire. If she's not in the Justice League, put her in BoP.

I also agree that Katana, Gypsy and Vixen all deserve spots on the team.

In my opinion, Birds of Prey is a street-level book, and I don't understand why all these heavy-hitters are listed in this thread.

It's been Street Level, but they've also gone against some pretty heavy hitters. I think having an ace up their sleeves would be a Good Thing.

Katanna is street level, as is Gypsy. Plus, Gypsy's powers are perfect for doing undercover ops.

As for Vixen, well, she's powerful, but she's also a fascinating character that no-one is doing anything with.

As for Terra- I confess, I just want to see Gail write Terra.
