I don't have my issues with me and I'm in need of some Birds of Prey reference, just a couple pages, Scans preferred but just the information would be okay, too.

I'm looking for info on the restaurant that was next to the Watchtower before it exploded. I know the basic info but I want to make sure my memory isn't wrong.

There was an attractive brunette waitress/manager, a brother who was a chef whose specialty was scallopini, and a young special needs daughter of the waitress.

I'm trying to verify their names and what issues they appeared in--I'm pretty sure they appeared in the issue that was three separate stories, in the story Adriana Melo drew, and also in the first couple trade paperbacks.

Any info you have is much welcome! Scans of those specific pages would kick ass!

Is it Fieri Bros Cafe? The cooks name was Roberto (Rob) and the little girl was Renee. Can't find the moms name, but can keep looking. Is that the one? I can shove up some scans if it is.

Aha; the mom is Suze!

As it happens, I've been re-reading your first BoP run recently and have the issues to hand! As far as I can tell - just skimmed through 56 to 70 - you never name Renee's mother. Her Uncle is indeed Robert though. If it's of use/relevant, Renee was diagnosed as developmentally dysfunctional at age 2. Her father left shortly after, unable to deal with having a mentally disabled daughter.

Hope that helps!

The mom is named in issue 63, when Renne runs inside after Babs tells her to get help.

<looks again, more closely>

Oh yeaaaaaaah, so she is. "Suze", according to Rob. I'd imagine Suzanna or some variation thereof?

In my defence, I did say I skimmed those issues just now! :D

I'd imagine her name is Suzerina. I have a feeling...
And NO excuses, Impulse! How dare you not know obsure things about a comic!! ;-)

also, for Gail, it's issues 61, 63 and 86 for references.
