Description
Published 2007.
From the Order mini series by Fraction and Kitson,
Cover features the Black Dahlias [Wendy, Lisa, Marie, Carrie and Rae-Ann]
The Black Dahlias is an all girl gang in Los Angeles, which was formed with the purpose of protecting women and girls from the exploitation of the streets.
They became hired assassins and were hired to take out the Order. They succeeded in killing one member (Corona) and depowering another (Mulholland).
Mulholland was a former member of the Black Dahlias before joining the Order.
The Black Dahlias took their name from an infamous Los Angeles murder case of in the late 1940s, the Black Dahlia case, which has over time been turned into a sort of morality tale about the dangers that Los Angeles supposedly poses to naïve young women.
It has been speculated that the Black Dahlias may appear in the next Spider-Man movie since Peter Parker had given Mary Jane a Black Dahlia necklace and in the final scene of Spider-Man: No Way Home, MJ is seen still wearing the necklace.

I don't mind the cover here
When Kitson draws the lines
'Cause when The Order’s oh so near
Dahlias lose my mind

It's not the costumes that they wear
It's not the leather makes me scared
And quite the find the cover here
I’m losing all the time

I don't mind bald, big and stout
And putting me to sleep
It doesn't matter the art is clean
As long as inks are deep, yeah

They always knew to wear it well and
You look so Kitson I can tell
And you don't write the Order out
And Fractions in your sleep

I guess they’re just what I needed (just what I needed)
I needed covers to please
I guess they’re just what I needed (just what I needed)
I needed Black Dahlia seeds

Wow! Once again, waaaay different style than Kitson's norm. I see Nowlan influence all of this. Really nice!
