SSIXRB_Cv.qx

When three men kidnap Catman’s long-lost son, he’ll have not only the captors to face, but his buried past as well. Recruiting the help of his Secret Six teammates to save the only person he truly cares for, Catman will stop at nothing to exact vengeance – even if that means leaving a bloody trail.

Collecting Gail Simone’s SECRET SIX #25-29 and Paul Cornell’s ACTION COMICS #897 (featuring Lex Luthor and the Joker as part of the explosive “Black Ring” storyline), SECRET SIX: THE REPTILE BRAIN features art by J. Calafiore and Pete Woods. If you missed this storyline in single issues, be sure to check it out when it hits comic book stores tomorrow and becomes available wherever books are sold on May 10th.

Huntress and Catman Kiss

Romance is in the air for Huntress and Catman as they share a passionate kiss while on a night on the town – which of course for them means fighting bad guys and trying to rescue an asthmatic hostage. But will a major reveal about Catman’s past change everything?

BIRDS OF PREY #11, written by Gail Simone and with art by Pere Perez, hits stores today.

"Valentine's Day is just a made-up day. But so is Wednesday."

Someone once said "Valentine's Day is just a made-up day. But so is Wednesday. Also, I think gravity is made up."

That someone? Gail Simone.

Hmmm, that doesn't exactly bode well for Huntress and Catman's upcoming first date, does it? We asked Gail, is this going to be a disastrous first date?

Here's what she had to say about BIRDS OF PREY issue 11:

"The most requested date in BIRDS OF PREY history happens in this issue. It's mostly about shy glances over a shared milkshake, and holding hands chastely in a lovely dewy meadow while parasols twirl slowly in the gentle breeze of Autumnal air.

"Well, no, not REALLY, these are the two lustiest, toughest members of the Birds and the Secret Six, so it's really more about sharp pointy things and bad behavior!"

Bad behavior? From Catman and Huntress?

Come to think of it, most of the time, these relationships seem destined to end in tragedy.
