Birds of Prey #15 is a solid issue that steadily progresses the storyline, allowing Cassandra Cain to shine while also putting her in difficult situations.

Overall, Birds of Prey #15 isn't that it's bad, it's just not that good. It's uneven with positives and negatives that balance each other. While Thompson gets some things right with type of story and some quality covert action, characterization is way off and the story is cluttered with pointless characters.

There's probably no hope for the characterization. Read Full Review
