Birds of Prey #61: The artwork was confusing. There were several spots where I had trouble following the story. Changing Black Canary's hair in the middle of the story didn't help any. I mostly enjoyed the story, but there were a couple of very strange logic jumps in this one. Thus, it only gets 3 1/2 starfish. 
Way of the Rat #19: With the recent spectacular failings at CrossGen, it's hard to read any CrossGen book without wondering if the story will ever be finished. In this case, the art team is different, and while it's ok, I was really getting into Jeff Johnson's artwork on this book. The story is scattered, trying to establish too much. It succeeds despite itself. Not the best effort, but not bad, either.
El Cazador #3: As long as I'm reviewing CrossGen, I'll put in some words about the other CG book we picked up this week. Basically, it's the art keeping me reading this. The story has been slow to develop, and instead of getting some action with the existing characters, we're being introduced to yet more. The only good thing about this is that the next issue finally promises some conflict.
Still to review: Batman: Detective #27, Smallville, and WildGuard.
