Jesus Saiz new Birds of Prey artist

DC Comics has announced that beginning with issue #12, Jesus Saiz will be the ongoing artist for Birds of Prey.  This is good news for the title that has seen a revolving door of artists these last couple of months.  According to Birds of Prey writer, Gail Simone, it’s all good.
