Danielle's Reading Adventures

Not bad at all. This is more of a Black Canary and Oracle with guest stars type of book. Black Canary is sent on missions by her handler, Oracle, and she teams up with other crime fighters, particularly Huntress, and even the antihero Catwoman. The Dark Knight and Robin make an appearance, but they stay peripheral characters, and that is as it should be. This is not their show.

I haven't read a lot of Black Canary so far in my graphic novel endeavors. I have to say that I like her style. Oracle knows her stuff, and while she cannot go out in the field, she is crucial to successful missions. There was a good give and take between the pair, even though there was some friction when Canary would go off half-cocked and Oracle would lose contact with her.

I liked seeing these tough, independent women doing their own thing, and I liked the camaraderie between the women as they fight crime and protect those in need of protecting.

I would read more of these.

Overall rating: 3.5/5.0 stars.
