With the announcement of six new titles from the DC Comics The New 52 Second Wave and a new look the trailer for Haywire – it came to me like a geekasm!

Gail Simone on a new Lady Shiva series and Haywire star Gina Carano playing the master assassin in the next Batman film…oh yeah….back to the comic book series idea…

Lady Shiva is one of the deadliest assassins in the DC Universe. Shiva has fought with and against or trained a who’s who including Batman, Cassandra Cain, Black Canary, Tim Drake, Ra’s Al Ghul, the League of Assassins, and the Brotherhood of the Fist.

Gail Simone’s reel (because her writing is downright cinematic) features Birds of Prey, Secret Six and the dynamic new Batgirl. I don’t think the martial arts grandmaster has appeared in the New 52 yet and I think Simone is the perfect choice to unleash Lady Shiva on DC’s New 52 underworld.
