Anyway, Ms. Carlson has the look dead perfect, from arm tats to gun strap to ponytail. But it's also her slightly mischievous look that just screams "Starling" to me. The moment I opened the email I thought, Yep. That's her. Ready to do a shot and knee somebody in the face.
The Carlsons will enjoy a full year of signed copies of Birds of Prey from my personal comp stash. Issues #1 and 2 will go out together, followed by one every month until next August. Enjoy!
There were also two very fine honorable mentions who will be receiving signed copies of the first two issues of Birds. First up: Ms. Cherryfox, who reports that the wig she's wearing weighed a ton:
If you recognize that watermark, it's because Ms. Cherryfox created that winning photo of Mr. Raphael Went as Hardie (see earlier entry). Talk about your crossovers! I don't think Hardie would last long in a relationship with Starling, btw. For one thing, she could definitely out-drink/shoot/brawl him, and that would probably bug him after a while.
And finally Lauren (last name withheld for what I presume are Homeland Security-related issues) (I'M KIDDING LAUREN, just respecting your privacy) sent this ultra-spirited photo of Starling behind the wheel, which just makes me smile. She has Starling's love of gleeful mayhem down pat:
Congrats to everyone! And thanks so much for entering this crazy little contest. I do hope you all got some Hallowe'en mileage out of these costumes. (For the record, I spent the holiday dressed up as Hardie. And it wasn't ginger beer in my hand, either.)

Thank you, thank you! I'm so glad you liked my interpretation of the fantastically brassy Starling. It was easy enough to do - I am a woman who likes her whiskey neat, no chaser.
Brilliant other entries too. Nice job ladies! The video game hand wheel gave me a good laugh.
I can't wait to enjoy a year of Bird of Prey! You rock Duane!
She could also be a good Lane Madden.
