Oct 02, 2024If you've missed out on this Birds of Prey run so far, DC's new jumping-on point is a great opportunity to fix that. Read Full Review

Geek Dad - Ray Goldfield
Oct 02, 2024This is a fairly light issue until the last few pages, when we discover just how evil this corporation is, and how far Cass might have to go to stop them. Nothing big has changed in this new era for this title, but when it's this good, why should it have to? Read Full Review

Jan 01, 1970Birds of Prey's All-In kickoff was the addition of a one-page primer to explain the characters and how they've banded together. Otherwise, this is issue lived up exactly to the All-In premise of being a great place to start with a fun DC title. Read Full Review

Nerd Initiative - Ken M.
Oct 02, 2024The Birds of Prey kick off their latest chapter with a strong lead-in. Thompson builds the drama with fantastic writing. Basri, Lucas and Cowles balances the undercover work with solid imagery. The last page will have readers locked in for another excellent ride! Read Full Review

Oct 05, 2024Whether it was intended or not Birds of Prey #14 sells the idea that now is the time for Cassandra Cain to get a new ongoing Batgirl series. Read Full Review

Oct 11, 2024We get more Birds, and more chaos. While I might be missing some of the original members of the team, I like how Thompson is mixing it up so we don't get too used to the members. It's always fresh and new arcs bring more fun and shenanigans. Read Full Review

DC Comics News - Matthew Lloyd
Oct 02, 2024While Birds of Prey #14 does show signs of improvement from previous issues, it also continues to expose Thompson's weakness as a writer in the DC Universe. She just doesn't know the characters well enough and can't distinguish the good from the bad in terms of previous stories. Her characterization remains surface level at best. It's a mediocre start for the first issue under the "All In banner. If this is the best Thompson's got, it's not a lot to get excited about. Read Full Review

Great issue with an interesting story, good writing and MUCH improved art. Each character is uniquely written and interesting, with Cassandra being the highlight of the issue. This has become one of my favorite DC books running with the art no longer repulsing me.

Why has no one explained to her barda isn't a god damn cave woman. All her characters are surface level or just wrong. This isn't issue 3. It's not ok at this point.

I really want to re-embrace DC Comics again and after how much I enjoyed Absolute Power - I started to dig in with these "All-In relaunches" - but this Birds of Prey issue 14 isn't helping. This was just a pointless comic, I guess if you are invested into these characters you might want to read this ... but for someone just jumping in this was an unmitigated miss. None of the characters seemed likable and it didn't really seem to be under the shadow of Absolute Power ... it just was a big fat nothing burger. The story of the missing Amazon women wasn't captivating enough to make me come back for a second helping ... I do NOT recommend this issue and will NOT be getting issue 15.
