    5. Alfred!
    6. what is on the platter

    9. remember that card in #15 it's back!
    10. suspense
    11. lets get serious!
    12. really joker! batman does have the home ground advantage
    13. phew!

    does batman actually know jokers true identity

    should the lion be bat-lion

    over all the art work is great 4.5/5

    the story is also great 4/5 but with the last 2 pages 6/5

    overall 10/10
