queenkoko's review against another edition
3.0
Why is this called Birds of Prey when its only Black Canary and the Red League? Ties in sort of with the garbage Batgirl: Futures End #1. I think I am done with all the Futures End issues in my large comic TBR pile.

Trigger Warning: sex slavery, violence against women, suicide, human trafficking
Black Canary and her Red League take on the leader of a human trafficking ring in Gotham. Just as she is about to take down said bad guy, Black Beast (a side persona of Batgirl) shows up and tries to stop Canary. They have an air-clearing fight and Canary explains why she is targeting this particular Gotham citizen. Black Beast understands and side steps out of the way, a little too late; Canary and her army find the guy hanging from the ceiling. But Canary is no fool; minutes prior to executing this mission, she "accidentally" leaks the evidence she has against bad guy to the press. So the guy's name will be mud regardless. The artwork was decent, and I liked that Canary's outfit was not her standard leotard and fishnet stockings, but an actual full body costume that a person could fight in. The storytelling was decent as well. There was just no Wow! factor in this.
