    Romano Molenaar's pencils are consistent even if the women of Birds of Prey all seem to share the same face. The action sequences are particularly effective and Vicent Cifuentes inks and Chris Sotomayor's colors are almost cinematic in their sophistication. All in all, it's a solid issue that drives home the idea that it's hard to build a house without a solid foundation and impossible to build a team when everyone is busy hiding their secrets from one another.

    "Birds of Prey" #17 isn't the absolute best issue from Swierczynski and Molenaar, but it's still a good, enjoyable comic just like they got us used to. If it hadn't been Swierczynski's swan song, I suspect the frustrations probably wouldn't have even been present. Hopefully Marx can fill those shoes, but until then, it's been a fun ride.

    All that being said, I really enjoyed Swierczynski's run, and it's unfortunate that some of the things he started never got to get finished properly by him. Read Full Review
