Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) is fast approaching, and this December, DC Comics is releasing three new trade paperbacks putting the spotlight on Harley Quinn, Black Canary, and Huntress. For fans who aren't overly familiar with the characters, these will likely be essential reading to get up to speed with the trio.

Each of these trades will feature covers by artist Tula Lotay featuring the heroes as they will appear in the upcoming Birds of Prey movie. As a result, we have our best look yet at the characters and their costumes, including a very interesting choice of weapon for Black Canary and a far more detailed look at Huntress' grounded suit (unfortunately, it doesn't appear as if she'll be donning a mask).

These are all really cool, and would make great theatrical posters if Warner Bros. wanted a more unique marketing campaign.

To check out all these Birds of Prey comic book covers, hit the "View List" button down below!

Continue reading below to check out some hi-res
stills from that first Birds of Prey teaser video!

This is obviously Harley Quinn and it's good to see her trademark mallet here. I may be wrong about this, but have some of the tattoos on the back of her legs been removed since Suicide Squad?

Huntress has her crossbow here and that's obviously going to make a lot of comic book fans happy seeing as it's something she's always used in the source material.

Is this Renee Montoya? If so, here's hoping Birds of Prey avoids taking us down the route of seeing a cop with a drinking problem because that's been done to death in countless movies over the years.

Well, Cassandra Cain certainly seems to have some issues as it really doesn't look like she's particularly popular if those insults were written by "friends." She may have decorated it herself, though.

As good as it is to see Harley wielding that baseball bat, she's rocking a totally different costume here. This could be her new look throughout the movie or just one of many different outfits.

Based on what we see here, it definitely appears as if this version of Black Canary is going to be inspired by the New 52/Rebirth era versions but, as we see later, she does have fishnets...on her arms!

Well, Huntress definitely looks like a badass but her mask is nowhere to be seen and while there's a chance she'll suit up later on in the movie, Birds of Prey seems to be going for a grounded aesthetic.

This doesn't tell us much about Renee Montoya, but the character is expected to play a key role in the movie and it will be interesting to see how she's handled as there's a lot to pick from the comics.

Meet the Black Mask...minus the black mask! He certainly looks like a gangster and seeing as this is just a test video/cast reveal, there's nothing to say he won't don his skeletal visage at some point.

Huntress takes aim. Little is known about how this version of the character will differ from the source material, but she's unlikely to be Catwoman's daughter!

This is Victor Zsasz, a classic Batman villain who covers his body with scars for every kill. We don't see any of those here but he definitely bears something of a resemblance to the comic book version.

Two more fairly unrevealing shots, but the second definitely gives us an idea of how Black Canary will be portrayed. After seeing so much of her on TV, I do wonder how her powers will differ visually.

A lot of fans are definitely going to be disappointed if Black Mask doesn't don his classic headpiece, as it really wouldn't be that hard to include.

Cassandra Cain sounds like she will be the "MacGuffin" of Birds of Prey in the sense that the team will be trying to save her from Black Mask. Why she's so important hasn't been revealed yet, though.

Well, he definitely looks like a psycho, right?

This could prove to be a somewhat divisive take on Harley Quinn, especially among those hoping for a comic accurate costume. This is bound to be just one of many costumes in the movie, though!

Black Canary played by Billie Piper?

Also view list for 3 images, c'mon man.

This movie looks terrible, no costumes, they don't even look like the characters, black mask doesn't wear a black mask......I guess they think putting Harley in charge of the Birds of Prey is going to somehow save this shitshow......yeah, I'll pass.

I liked IT CHAPTER 2. Didn't love it. Movie was messy - think they should've cut the flashbacks of the kids and developed the adults a bit more.

Loved the Pennywise scenes, mainly the girl under the bleachers, Adrian Mellon, and Mrs. Kirsh's house was also great despite being the first teaser.

But it was really messy. And I passed out when Bill entered the glass room. Also - James McAvoy's performance was weird...

5/10

@regularmovieguy - fair assessment here. I agree with everything you said.

You literally passed out?

regularmovieguy - 9/15/2019, 2:49 PM

@MyCoolYoung

Haha I did...wasn’t exactly the movie’s fault although a solid 30+ minutes could’ve been trimmed.

Had 1 too many IPAs and my vape prolly didn’t help either.

So they really are just going to look like that huh?
