Not just a filler 0
At first I was surprised that they would put a filler issue right after a HUGE cliffhanger at the end of the last issue. I was shocked to find out that this issue was intricut, could fit into the main story, and provided at least a little closure from the last issue. I've loved everything Morrison has done, even Final Crisis, and this new artist he's taken under his wing is awesome, like a little more cartoonish Frank Quietly. Great issue, perfect balance between story and action....

Talia: Year One 0
THE GOOD: Chris Burnham is on art duties and I really like the way everything looks in this issue. There is plenty of detail on the pages but not too much. The action is fluid. The most important thing is that the characters convey strong emotions in this issue. There are also some nice homages. The story is very complex to me. Grant Morrison is visiting the origin of Talia, and Damian and it's a very interesting issue. I really like the characterization of Talia in this issue. She is a bad guy,...

Good comic that flashes back on history of Batman 5
I liked this but then again I liked he last issue of Batman Inc, the art is awesome much better in my opinion on most Batman books as Batman and every other character is consistent from frame to frame where as say Detective, Batman and The Dark knight comics all fall short on being consistent in the art department. It's been my pet peeve for a few issues now that Batman, Detective and The Dark Knight comics art is not up to standard for me. But here is no issue in that department.Ok as for story...

A Woman's Touch 2
This cover dances so close to greatness, but ultimately falls flat. I can't completely decide why. Is it too crowded? It certainly has A LOT going on, but I think removing the characters at the bottom would make it a bit too simple, not to mention I like the way they're laid out ESPECIALLY the empty floating Wingman helmet since we don't know who the new one is. Maybe it needed an actual background? Because the white background is definitely not doing this cover any favors. Oh well.Ugh, what hap...

War drums 0
Intro: This issue doesn't pick up from the last issue at all. Instead it pretty much flips a 180 and decides to focus on Talia in a very Morrison manner.The Good: It's a great idea to start to focus on our villain. I think it's a good to go back and see her journey.The Bad: I think it focuses too much on Talia, some of the Ra's art is very comical, but I hope he palays a bigger part in this arc.Verdict: This issue breaks away from the cliffhanger, and focuses on Talia, which is good but it goes ...

Look into the Eye of the Gorgon 0
Plot: Take a peak into the past of Talia Al Ghul. Good: I haven't reviewed a DC comic in a while but wow just wow is this one worth it. Grant Morrison crafts a fantastic and intriguing tale focused on the daughter of the demon, the mother of the current Robin, the former girlfriend of the Bat. This is a Batman story that cannot be missed. The origin of one Talia Al Ghul while not neccisarlly something new is told in a way that will keep the reader entertained. It is a nice long read,...

The tragedy of Talia al Ghul, the Daughter of the Demon. 0
This issue gives small hints towards what Talia’s endgame may be, and expands on much of what’s happened before, but I think where Morrison truly succeeds in this issue is in delivering us an entire issue of backstory that’s still very entertaining. Morrison captures the super-spy side of Batman that’s been lost for a while, and it really does feel like we’re reading a modernized Silver-Age tale of Batman here which is a great way to differentiate this title from the other four titles that have ...
