However, after Cass uses a brick to break Bella's electronic collar, the beast becomes a friend. Cass uses Bella to trick her way into the guard's chamber. She takes some of the guard's equipment before climbing up the elevator cable and back into the ventilation ducts. She sees a woman about to be injected with a green substance and crashes into the room. She frees the woman who flees into the air duct. Cass now finds herself facing Xane, Jens, and Chet again. She sees that Xane is still wearing her secret communication bracelet. She uses a smoke grenade to distract him as she presses something to activate the bracelet. Except this has given one of the others time to hit her in the back with the syringe. Meanwhile at the Birds Headquarters, the other Birds have been anxiously awaiting word from Cass since she missed the last two check in times. Oracle is finally able to translate the message Cass send before her initial capture and the group sets out through one of Barda's boom tubes into the basement lab of the Ninth Day Corporation. As the scientists flee, gas is released and the Birds done their gas masks. They're then confronted by 4 grotesquely muscled mutated women. Black Canary, Big Barda, Onyx, and Grace take them out. However, as Black Canary uses a device to allow Oracle access into the computer she sees a sight that horrifies them: a grotesquely muscled mutated Cassandra Cain.    Write to us at feathersandfoes@gmail.com www.thehuntresspodcast.com Bluesky: @huestone44.bsky.social www.patreon.com/wrightonnetwork

Eisner Award nominated comics writer Tate Brombal (Barbalien: Red Planet) returns to the show today to chat with me about his new DC Comics Elseworlds seven issue mini-series Green Lantern Dark. Last June Tate was a guest during our Pride Month coverage where he introduced the world to the Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos which he is co-writing with James Tynion, a LGBTQ+ horror-hero coming-of-age series reintroducing us to the classic Universal Monsters creatures through a distinctly queer lens, now on its twelfth issue. We get into his own introduction to the Elseworlds Imprint through his uncle, how new Lantern Rina Mori was developed as a character, and how a chance dinner conversation created the unlikely creative partnership with artist Werther Dell'Edera. It's also been announced that he's taking on the role of writing the new Batgirl series resurrecting Cassandra Cain for her first ongoing solo series in decades with veteran artist Takeshi Miyazawa. I get to hear all about Tate's research for the book that involves watching Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon and other martial arts movies to refresh his skills on scripting fight scenes and how the nucleus of the book will be focused on the relationship between Cassandra and Lady Shiva. At the end, Tate clues me in to one of the best deep dive book options for writer Mary Shelley research and we catch up on where things are with the Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos. Find Tate on X and Instagram Green Lantern Dark from the publisher On a post-apocalyptic Earth overrun by monsters, the battle between good and evil ended long ago--and evil won.

From the press release below we can see that her primary foe will be Lady Shiva. It comes as no surprise that Shiva will be the antagonist as she has long been regarded as one of the best fighters in the entirety of the DC Universe. Black Canary on the other hand, is not generally in the top five most formidable fighters if you ask most DC fans. Perhaps if you are only talking about females, her name might be mentioned. I think most DC fans familiar with these characters are much more likely to mention Cassandra Cain or the aforementioned Lady Shiva. The question does remain however, if the assertion of Canary as one of the best hand to hand fighters generates controversy, this series may not be as well-received as some of King's previous out of continuity work. As the saying goes, there is no such thing as bad press, so it is entirely possible that any online discourse about presenting Canary as possible the most formidable fight in the DCU rivaling Lady Shiva, will only have a positive effect on sales. There may be people that pick up the series just to see how the claim that Canary could best Shiva could possible me true. Only time will tell and you can decide for yourself starting on November 27th, when issue #1 hits comic shops.

I can't help but see some parallels! How did your work on that series about a girl gang with a badass lead vocalist prepare you for Birds of Prey?With a few issues under your belt at this point, I'm sure, is there a character that floats to the top of most fun to write? Follow up, who is a character that surprises you the most?We all know Leonardo Romero and Jordie Bellaire are gosh darn gifts to the comics community. Were there particular visual moments that impressed you or surprised you in the first issue or two that you'd like to shout out?Something that always impresses me is your dialogue, particularly with groups! I've come to learn after interviewing different writers the approach to writing good dialogue can be different. Is there a particular technique you use in writing dialogue, or feeling out how different characters will approach one another?We're greatly enjoying Black Cloak at AIPT, which presents a fully realized new world. How do you approach worldbuilding? Is there a Black Cloak Bible? (Folks should definitely check out the finale next week.)You also have The Cull coming out from Image Comics on August 16th, described as horrifying and delightful with a group even the press release calls reminiscent of the Goonies. When creating an entirely new friend group, how do you go about crafting their personalities and making them a unit, but separate?Anything else you'd like to promote today?
