(read in digital, not trade)
I have a hard time reading pre-reboot DC Comics, because all these amazing female characters I adore are just GONE, and it makes me sad. None of the leads of this book are in current continuity in the form they were in here, and ... yeah. Sad.
I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this given that I have no idea who any of these characters are. I guess at this point I've read enough comics to not bat an eyelash when a character is described as a “WWII pilot misplaced in time.” Like, sure, of course. Anyway there were a lot of references to character backstory/motivation that I did not understand at all, but basically the message I got was: do not fuck with these ladiez. And I won't, I swear. Basically a really smart, fun bunch of ladies kicking ass in Gotham City led by the best librarian everrrr
