What happens when a mysterious new villain threatens to expose the secrets and identities of everyone in the superhero community? Call in the Birds of Prey!

Here is some welcome news for those who have been lost without their Birds of Prey action – the series is returning in the Spring. And to answer the question that is ready to burst from your mouth, yes, Gail Simone will be writing. Join Simone will be Ed Benes, and all I can say is, “hubba-hubba”.
“I am really excited and I missed those characters terribly. I miss almost every book I’ve ever written, but the Birds have a special place in my heart and brain,” said Simone.
Check out the promo bit that DC released on their website. The comic book publishers have been blacking out a lot of characters on covers for 2010 as part of the buildup, and the two masked out above should get a lot of you guessing.
According to Simone, the new series will be a little tougher and a little naughtier than the original run. And if you are looking for a sneak of what to expect, Simone said, “Someone wants the band back together, and it’s NOT the Birds. Zinda gets a date. A long-promised headquarters is built. Black Canary kicks ass. Huntress thinks a certain big league bat villain should be left to die. A bird is charged with murder. Another might be working for the other side. And Catman leaves a naughty phone message for the wrong person.”
How many people just went, “SQUEE!”
The Source shared some images of Ed Benes’ cover work for the upcoming Red Tornado series that features the Red Torpedo. You’ll want to take the jump to see this one in its full glory.
Alex Segura over at The Source, has been releasing sneak peeks on the upcoming Blackest Night series. Today the site has the three joined covers to Blackest Night: Tales of the Corps #1-3 by artist Ed Benes’. Very cool, and sure to be the wallpaper for more than a few people. I’m digging it, and can’t wait for the action to crank into high gear in what could be the biggest series DC has released since Sinestro Corps War.
