If you want some idea of just how difficult it is to make comic-book-style action dovetail with heartfelt emotionalism, tune in to Birds of Prey, a migraine-inducingly complex superhero saga.

The show's look is sleek, but all the Batman mythology seems like little more than yet another way to repackage WB angst.
