Helena's Definitive bop Moments-Part One
A little time ago, Birds of Prey writer Gail Simone asked for readers input into what they thought were the definitive moments for each of the characters during her run. When I think of definitive, I think not only classic but defining as well.

Katie: Tonner Dolls: Gotham Girls →
I own a Huntress Tonner Doll. She is a thing of beauty. Her face is exquisite. Her mask is perfect. The costume, everything, she looks flawless. Oh and her hair, I love her hair. If there is one drawback, and it might not even be fair to call it that, I do wish they had found a way to incorporate her cross.
