WHAT NIGHTMARES AWAIT THE BIRDS OF PREY THROUGH THE FINAL PORTAL? With the search for Barbara finally over, Cass leads the Birds of Prey through the portal one final time, and where they end up is a world far too familiar to Cass but strange to everyone else. Just what dangers lie among the unliving...or should we say who?
What an ending to the arc! I want more, I neeeeeeeeed more. These women and their shenanigans are amazing. It is fun, serious, heart wrenching sarcastic, good times all round. If Kelly T can just write this series indefinitely, that would be amazing. Read Full Review
Kelly Thompson and Gavin Guidry stick the landing for the finale of the "Worlds Without End story arc. Read Full Review
I'm so happy to see this series thrive! The longer story arc really works with Thompson's narrative style and her dialogue finally had heartfelt touches that were desperately needed. While the story could've shaved it's b-plot to dive deeper into Maia's ethical position (maybe having the time traveler on the other side of the portal who's literally doing nothing figure out what the Birds of Prey did to get mixed into this nonsense?), I still really enjoyed reading and especially watching this adventure develop! Thompson has combined art and writing in powerfully purposeful ways with a whole roster of artists back to back to back. That's no small feat, so kudos! Skip the mini two-parter setup that came out before and I bet you won't be disappointed by these five issues!Score: 7/10 Read Full Review
Birds Of Prey #13 ends the arc with an issue-long battle full of energy, action, and clever twists. Plus, Gavin Guidry makes the finale as visually engaging as possible. Unfortunately, Kelly Thompson completely botches the ending with a ridiculous resolution and wasted cameos. Read Full Review
Birds of Prey #13 is yet another disappointment. Thompson has had plenty of opportunities (13, so far) to make this series into something, and she just can't land this as a Birds of Prey series. She's got elements of Doom Patrol (wild wacky extra dimensional shenanigans), and an independent creator owned series with the focus on Maia and Cela. Writing a Doom Patrol series would be fine. A book about Cela and Maia would probably be really good, it's clear that's where her passion lies. This is just another superficial series with style over substance and none of the characters people are here for (Barbara, Dinah) show any real depth. Somehow, the resolution is better than the previous issue. Read Full Review
