    Look into the Eye of the Gorgon

    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 details and references at old continuity are so nice. The art is so very detailed and does Batman and the book justice. Everything is starting to come together as Grant brings his epic run on the Bat to an end. The Bad: It's a rare five, there is no bad I can think of. Overall: Pick it up.

      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,...
