It's an okay story, with a couple good moments (I love the roles of Savant and Creote in the reconstituted Birds of Prey, and Dove getting drunk for the first time is enjoyable), but mostly it feels like one long fight scene stretched out over four issues. Of course, this masterplan goes awry, as the Calculator pulls some unexpected allies in, but not too awry. The first of these is the titular one, "The Death of Oracle," where Barbara decides that these days too many people know there is an Oracle, and that just that bare fact opens her up to too much, and so she executes a masterplan that will allow the world to think that Oracle is dead. ![]() ![]() Like some of the previous Birds of Prey volumes, this is a loose collection of individual stories, so I'll handle them one by one. ![]()
