    Birds of Prey #5

    Birds of Prey » Birds of Prey #5 - Chokepoint released by DC Comics on March 2012.

    Short summary describing this issue.

    No recent wiki edits to this page.

    After [REDACTED] in issue #4, the team agrees to take 24 hours to take stock of what just happened. But there's no such thing as R&R for the Birds of Prey, as Black Canary realizes that Gotham City is still in grave danger. And the key to unmasking the villain known as "Choke" may lie in the mystery of a man who one day just walked out on his family and life…and into a world of mind-control and murder.

How does he add onto this new team in issue #5?  THE GOOD: This is the issue where the art finally clicked. I really started to liking it in this issue and I really am starting to like the new costumes. I also really like how Jesus Saiz captures emotion of the characters. You really can almost guess how they are feeling and I enjoy t...

    Synopsis: The Birds take a day to recover from a crazy mind sweep.What's Good?It's nice that Duane Swiercynski give these characters more personality.

    I'm very conflicted on how I feel about this cover. David Finch drew these women with shamefully exploitive body proportions in shameful exploitive poses, and made them take up too much space so he only had room for three of them chosen at random.
