I'm not always impressed with the Birds of Prey plots either, but I'm really enjoying the characters. I think I enjoy the more internal plots that deal with the characters better than the ones dealing with the Big Bad of the week.

And thanks for the heads up on the Batgirl: Year One TPB. I was going to attempt to locate single issues. This will be much easier.

And I had no idea that Iron Man was human. Or Captain America. But I suppose that they do have access to ridiculously hardcore technology. I mostly stick to X-men comics with Marvel, and there aren't many humans there. And the X-men get all weirded out by humans wanting to help out. For a group that promotes human/mutant intermingling, they sure aren't willing to put up with humans for too long. I always find that amusing.

And the scene in "The Killing Joke" makes more sense given that context.

On the subject of Superhero Morality... I could go on quite a bit

I'm looking forward to reading the post you said you were going to write on that. I think I agree with you in a way, except where I'm a huge fan of deconstructing ideals and taking things apart in fiction. I love my ideals, my myths, and legends. But I also love challenging those ideals and deconstructing the myths.
