Batman: Odyssey #4

batmanboy11's Batman: Odyssey #4 - Part 4 review

Odyssey Part 4

This series has come a long way, but its not there yet. With each issue, Neal Adams’ writing and drawing has improved, but his story telling has still been confusing and all that is true for this month’s issue. Obviously then, this is my favourite issue yet. His writing is leaps and bounds better than the first issue, but he could still use some lessons on how people talk now. His art has also improved greatly since issue 1 and I actually am quite fond of it now. The colours are pretty good, but there are still some things that bother me, like Batman’s belt being blue. The story gets a bit clearer this issue, but then more confusing information is dropped in the last few pages that well, confuse me more. So at the moment, I’m glad I’ve stuck with the series so far, and hopefully I won’t be disappointed next month. If you’ve been following this series and aren’t strapped for cash, I say pick this up.

3/5

The Good: The surprise dialogue on the cover, for one. Compared to the last cover especially, and even the first 2, and the next 2 on the solicits online, this cover seemed decidedly boring and weird. With the dialogue added? It becomes downright emotional. I could actually feel a weight on my heart I rarely get from solely a cover. Everything still looks absolutely stunning. Sure it's all sort of old-school looking, but it's a good kind of old. Especially when it gets all surreal as Batman lose...
