	Birds of Prey (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Birds of Prey was a live action American television series produced in 2002.
		The Huntress's origin is derived from the original version of the character, not the version appearing in the Birds of Prey comic book: she is Helena Kyle, the daughter of Batman and Catwoman, who (in the television series) was raised by her mother without her father ever knowing that she existed.
		A major difference between the television version of Huntress and the comic book original is that the TV character possessed a few cat-like superpowers inherited from her mother, who, in the TV series continuity, also had superpowers (in the comics she does not).

		This issue is the last one based on the dynamic of Oracle, the Huntress and Black Canary, as one of the birds exits this issue.

	Dude, Birds Of Prey Sucks!
		First some backstory: Birds of Prey is a new show on the WB based on the DC Comic book of the same name.
		In the comic, the titular "birds" are Dinah Lance, AKA the "Black Canary" an athletic superheroine with a "sonic scream" power and an old flame of Green Arrow (for you Marvel fans, think Hawkeye and Mockingbird), and Barbara Gordon, daughter of Batman's ally commisioner Gordon and formerly Batgirl before the Joker shot and paralyzed her.
		The comic occurs in the DC "present," or concurrently with Batman, Superman and the rest of the tights-and-cape set.

		The precise definition of comics remains a subject of debate, with some scholars insisting that their printed nature is crucial to the definition, or that they should be defined by the interdependence of image and text.
		The term "comics" likely originated in early 20th century comic strips, which were originally a venue for serial and gag humor (i.e., the name came from comedy).
		A radical break with the traditional comic genres occurred in the late 1960s with the advent of satirical, psychedelic, and sexually explicit underground comics.

		Birds of Prey fans can look for to a double dose on November 27th, when The WB is showing back to back Birds of Prey episodes.
		Fans of the comic know this is a major departure from the comic character, who has emphatically refused to use technology to walk again, even as her mentor Batman spared no expense in the search for a hi-tech way to repair his broken back.
		Meanwhile, Comics Continuum reports DC is also going to put out an ongoing monthly title for Smallville, with the same format as the one shot released earlier this year.

	The Birds of Prey Webring
		Especially upon viewing "Birds of Prey," the latest comic book come to life on The WB, I'm longing for some good superhero parody.
		But after spending an hour with the three heroines of "Birds of Prey" -- all babe-a-licious in that sexy-but-wholesome WB way -- I kept thinking of Vassey's Captain Liberty: sassy, sexy, funny and the sort of superhero you'd be afraid to take home to meet the family.
		Though her name is the same, she's not the Black Canary of the comic books, and her powers are completely different.

	Zap2it - TV features - 'Birds of Prey' Lands on WB
		Premiering Wednesday, Oct. 9, with an opening episode that runs 70 minutes, "Birds of Prey" is based on the comic of the same name, which focuses on masked heroines defending New Gotham, an updated version of Batman's Gotham City, with Batman mysteriously out of the picture.
		While the comic inspired "Birds of Prey," Tollin/Robbins -- along with executive producers Joe Davola ("Smallville") and Ron Koslow ("Beauty and the Beast"), and writer Laeta Kalogridis, who developed the series for television -- have taken some liberties with the original story line, which has caused some ripples of controversy in the comic-fan community.
		In the comics, the third leg of the trio was Black Canary, but it's not been established that Dinah and that character are one and the same.

	Birds of Prey (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The TV series strayed too far from the original concepts of the comic books on which it was based (sometimes, this is understandable--even preferable--when adapting comics to TV, but this was one of those cases where the original source material was far superior to the TV version).
		All of you cry baby comic book fans need to give it a rest, the show is based on the comic, that does not mean that is verbatum from the comic book, it is a TV show.
		The premise for Birds of Prey is just awful, I mean,when you have to take three minutes at the beginning of the show to explain the premise via announcer, you know it sucks.

	Stomp Tokyo Video Reviews - Birds of Prey (Unaired Pilot)
		The universe of DC comic books is of course one filled with the strange and fantastic, but it is also riddled with inconsistencies and contradictions.
		These two characters are the focus of the new WB TV series Birds of Prey, along with a third character imported from the comic book Birds of Prey -- sort of.
		As with the comic book, Barbara (Dina Meyer) uses a female colleague as her eyes and ears (and legs and fists) to operate beyond the confines of her secret lair inside an incredibly suspicious looking clock tower.

	50 -- One to Watch: Birds of Prey
		The Huntress of the comics isn't the daughter of Batman and Catwoman -- although a version from the seventies was -- and Black Canary in the comics is the middle-aged ex-girlfriend of Green Arrow, not a 19-year-old psychic.
		In the comics, the Birds and Batman fight side by side; the TV show takes place in a future Gotham City where Batman, psychologically damaged by the Joker's attack on Barbara Gordon, has disappeared.
		Birds didn't appear when we did our look at top comic book heroes back in May, but if we re-did the list based on last week's searches they would fit in about at #9, with more searches than Spawn, Wonder Woman, or Daredevil.

		Birds of Prey is prime WB material: three beautiful, sexy, young women – the brainy one (Dina Meyer as Oracle), the strong one (Ashley Scott as the Huntress), and the psychic one (Rachel Skarsten as Black Canary).

		It wasn't until the late 70's and early 80's that comics got back to the noir style that birthed Bruce Wayne's alter ego, thanks in large part to a loosening of the comics code.
		Birds was one of the few DC comics that I've been intrigued about lately, largely because I have always loved the Black Canary.
		This made Birds a risky proposition at best for me in magazine form, which is why I was astounded, astonished, and actually looking forward to the TV series.

	Birds Of Prey #83 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
		Since I'm a rather jaded comic reader who has seen the "tune in next issue to see if our brave hero is able to survive their certain death" trick played literally thousands of times, I'm always eager to praise a writer who is able to get past my well established defences.
		In fact, the transition was so quick that I initially suspected the sudden co-operation was a trick designed to lull our heroes into a false sense of security, but this idea was quickly quashed when the drug kingpin cuts his ties with the criminal organization that the Huntress is currently dismantling.
		The art also nicely presents the facial expressions of the characters, from Zinda's panicked expression as she calls Dinah about Barbara, to Ted's almost comical expression as he notices the two pounds of cocaine under the driver seat as they near the checkpoint.

	OAFE - Birds of Prey review
		WB's latest effort was "Birds of Prey," a pseudo-'girl power' series adapted from the chick-centric comic of the same name.
		In the comics, though, she's one of the DC Universe's elder statesmen (despite being neither 'elder' nor 'man').
		I'm not crazy about Huntress (she's not in the comic, and was included in this set only as a sort of agent "X," a service to the show), though she is a solid toy offering.

	ICv2 News - 'Birds of Prey' Lives!
		Birds of Prey, the television series based on the DC comic characters and produced by the company responsible for Smallville, debuted strongly on the WB network Wednesday night in the face of stiff competition from NBC's political drama, The West Wing, and ABC's scumfest, The Bachelor.
		Birds of Prey finished a close third for the hour with a 6.4/9 rating, and did even better with the highly prized 18-49 viewers by grabbing second place.
		Birds of Prey's initial ratings would be good for any network, but in the context of the WB, the show's performance is very strong indeed.

	Sequential Tart: Article — Birds of Prey (vol V/iss 11/November 2002)
		I had been involved with the Birds for several years before there was even a whisper about a television series; I had given those characters their voices, moved them from one scene to another, imagined their facial expressions changing even within panels, watched them learn to trust one another, and save the world a lot.
		Birds of Prey has the potential to be one of the best shows on television, this season or any other.
		Birds of Prey is on its way — but it still has a ways to go.

	Pulp and Dagger -- Review
		The Birds of Prey comic book series features the original Batgirl, now a wheelchair bound uber-hacker named Oracle who guides street level operatives, namely the Black Canary and, more irregularly, the Huntress.
		I mention this because even a poorly rated TV series probably had a larger audience than most comics, and the comic might still benefit from a crossover audience.
		The Birds of Prey comic has been a generally well regarded effort if you're looking for breezy, two-fisted action tales, often with foes that are crooks and gangsters rather than "super" villains, and with some emphasis on the buddy bonding between the heroines.

	Birds Of Prey: Series Premiere "Pilot" Review
		Based on the DC Comic, “Birds Of Prey” opens with a narration by Alfred Pennyworth (Ian Abercrombie) on the night where one of the biggest crackdowns on crime in the history of New Gotham City dismantles the Joker’s crime organization.
		The series a slightly self referential with a dialogue nod to Marvel Comic’s “Spider-Man” not unlike the “Superman” nod heard in the Sam Raimi feature film of this past summer and there appears to even be a subtle nod to “Smallville” with mention of “comets” or whatnot having fallen to Earth lately.
		Overall, the series premiere of “Birds Of Prey” shows some of the best promise for any of the new fall television series I have screened that have premiered this fall.
