Ah! Looks amazing! But it's probably going to end up killing my "Bardas of Prey" series :(

I mean...mistakes have been made. There's still time to fix this!

Just do on your stack for subscribers. No one will know.

I liked this and then realized maybe it was an accidental swing on Chip or Substack? Or both? And then I wanted to like it twice! ;D

Hahahaha! I love Chip and leave comments all over his deliriously fun ‘Stack. Speaking of love: Black Cloak rules.

Oh nifty! I don’t associate Barda with Birds of Prey at all but that’s a grand idea. Exciting!

She was in BoP for I think about 10 issues by Gail and/or Tony Bedard. Very fun stuff.

And if that level of granular historical knowledge doesn’t make you the ideal BoP architect, I can’t imagine what would haha

Can’t wait for the full reveal! I’m not all that familiar with Barda so this is bound to be a wonderful introduction!

Woohoo! Yes, I love Barda! This cast is fire so far! 🙌 Very curious if we'll see any significant others making a cameo and excited to see where this goes. Not often a DC reader, but gonna be crossing the street for this one. 😏

Barda! This just keeps getting more amazing. All this _AND_ a Super gorgeous Artgerm Barda cover! If this keeps up by the time the last member is announced I'll be collapsed in a happy puddle in the corner of the room. ;-)

I’m getting my life! This is amazing. I love Big Barda! One of my faves and so unsung. Loved her especially in that animated film where she and Wonder Woman take on Granny Goodness and the Furies. Thanks for this Kelly Thompson!

I love seeing Barda here! Excited that y'all got the Hawkeye band back together! I have to ask, since Barda is here, is there a chance we may see her amazing partner, Scott Free, pop up for even a small appearance?

I love the idea of an A-Force-style book for DC. (Or maybe A-Force was a Birds of Prey-style book for Marvel. Who knows? I love it either way.) One of the things I'm most looking forward to in your upcoming run is exactly what you mention in this post: a roster that changes based on the mission-specifics. Such a cool, organic way to bring in all kinds of awesome characters.
