    Very Good Long Halloween :D

    The Long Halloween is one of the most acclaimed and respected book related to Batman.  It is one of Jeph Loeb's greatest works and it is a strong testament that comics can have more depth then many of the shallow comics out today.

    The Long Halloween is 13 issues long and cycles from one Halloween to the next.  The calendar events theme works lovely in this book.  Each month foreshadowing what the issue will be about.  Jeph Loeb is in top form in this story arc.  Time Sale's art is perfect to give that Noir grit this comic needs to be a great Murder Mystery it is.

    This graphic novel is an ideal way for someone who wants to read Batman and be introduced to Gotham.  Many of the most important character are featured in this comic and the suspense of the crime story will keep any read captivated.
     Head or tales? Read it or Not? Why leave it to chance?  Read Long Halloween.

      Please read this before reading my review!: Okay so normally I write reviews on single issue comic books and what not. This is my first review of a graphic novel and it is not going to be like my normal reviews. No spoiling, no spitting back the pages, and no copied thoughts. Thank you and enjoy!  My thoughts When I bought this book I was very excited to read it. Jeph Loeb is a fantastic writer and the way he wrote each and every page in this book was amazing. The thought of Batman and Halloween...

      Batman: The Long Halloween #1 - The Long Halloween by thespoiler on August 19, 2015

      I was a huge fan of Jeph Loeb's Batman: Hush, so I was interested in reading some of his other Batman stories. I always heard a lot of praise given to The Long Halloween, so I decided to give that a try. And I'm happy to say that it lives up to the praise.The story takes place during the early days of Batman's career. The plot focuses on a killer named "Holiday", who (surprisingly enough) kills people on holidays. Batman, along with Harvey Dent and James Gordon, races to try and discover who...
