    A Forshadowing Flashback

    Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo have been giving a really good Batman story for the past two issues. Does this creative team keep up the pace while adding onto this complex story?
     
    THE GOOD:
    I like the art. It gives Gotham and Batman a feeling that they should have. It feels different from other books by DC and that is something that should be present in a Batman book. The story is also another really great aspect of this book so far. In this issue we have Batman investigating how the assassin got into the tower in the last issue. I really like the Scott Snyder is really making Batman a detective with a case that goes way back in time. I like how he doesn't quite know what he is dealing with. But I really like how Scott gives you details about Gotham that make you feel that you know the city. I've learned a lot about Wayne Tower, and the train tunnels from two issues. 
     
    THE BAD:
    I can't complain about a single thing.
     
    THE VERDICT: 5/5 (Perfect)
    Scott Snyder is an amazing writer and having him on Batman was a great choice DC made. He has made Batman a detective and still has managed to have Bruce Wayne have quite a bit of things to do. Batman has a lot of new technology and we are learning a lot about his past family. I really like how we are learning all these new things about Gotham. If you like Batman, this is the strongest Batman title being published. If you like good comics, your going to love this.

      The Story: Batman begins investigating the Court Of Owls more throughly and finds ties to his ancestors. My Thoughts:This was easily my most anticipated issue not only this week, but this entire month. I was so thrilled at the outcome of the first two issues of this series I just couldn't wait to read more. Scott Snyder doesn't disappoint at all. In my opinion, Scott Snyder was exactly what Batman needed.  We see Snyder delve deeper into not only Gotham's past, but Alan Wayne's as well. Snyder e...

      Snyder Delivers Again 0

      I know good things don't last; I'm not pessimistic, I just know that all good things must come to an end. So, I keep waiting for the new Batman series to fall into mediocrity. I thought the third issue might be the breaking point. Man, was I wrong.I have to say, this issue might be the best yet. Scott Snyder is amazing. He is producing some really groundbreaking stuff. I think it was G-Man who wrote an article on how he felt the "Gates of Gotham" storyline would have a lot of carryover into the ...
