Birds of Prey
- Drama
- Action & Adventure
- Sci-Fi & Fantasy
The series is set in New Gotham City, several years after it has been apparently abandoned by Batman. In his absence, Huntress, Oracle and Dinah are now the protectors of New Gotham: the Birds of Prey, and had taken over his war on crime. They are joined by Alfred Pennyworth, who serves Helena as she is heir to the Wayne estate; and Detective Jesse Reese, a police officer confronted with crimes and abilities he cannot explain. A central feature of the series is the concept of metahumans: individuals born with powers that cannot be explained. No two metahumans have the same abilities (unless hereditary), and there exists a whole subculture of metahuman society that the outside world knows nothing about.
Birds of Prey is a 2002 action-drama series set in New Gotham City, where Huntress, Oracle, and Dinah protect the city in Batman's absence as the titular vigilante team. The show explores a world of metahumans—individuals with unexplainable superpowers—as the trio battles crime alongside Alfred Pennyworth and Detective Jesse Reese. The series was canceled after one season.
