This arc was so long, depressing, nihilistic, meandering, and cumbersome that I'm surprised Frank Miller didn't write it. If you want a good dark Batman story, read The Court of Owls. It does a much better job with the "conspiracy" angle. I always believed that, if a non-superhero writer could write a good Batman story, it would be David Lapham of Stray Bullets fame. His dark, gritty noir style, everyday-meets-crime-fiction kind of stories--I really thought he'd be a good choice. This book proved me wrong. It's not awful, but the story is convoluted and complicated (and I'm not just whining it's too harrrrrrrrrrd! I'm a girl!!)--there are too many red herrings and dead ends, too many twists and turns, to really keep track of in a story. I'm left with the impression that Lapham was trying too hard to write episodes that would become a full story, once his 12 issues of Detective Comics were done. It just didn't work. The art was pretty good, though, so it gets 3 stars instead of 2. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
A missed cry for help sets off a chain of events that sends Batman into the depths of the Gotham underworld where he exposes the most sinister roots of evil and uncovers some truths that might be better left buried. No library descriptions found. |
