    I really enjoyed this issue and appreciated that we still don't know Asema's true identity. The storyline of Damian going undercover in a prison was especially engaging, and the implications of it are hugeparticularly when you factor in Damian's general disdain for authority. Read Full Review

    From Damian's rebellion to Batman's conversation with Bullock, this is one of the most pointedly political books out of DC I've read in some time, and it's all the better for Taylor's passion over this issue. Read Full Review

    Nerd Initiative - Ken M. Feb 26, 2025

    The fight against Asema takes a personal turn with its latest chapter. Taylors writing brings out the fatherly aspect of Batman as the case heats up. Janin and Abbott craft phenomenal images that not only elevate the story but Damian Waynes heroic side. This story keeps getting better and better. Read Full Review

    Detective Comics #1094 isn't the wildest issue ever, isn't the most impactful, but gosh darn it, it's a great read, and furthers the plot in an entertaining and engaging way! What more could you ask for?! Read Full Review

    AIPT - Marvel Maximus Feb 26, 2025

    'Detective Comics' #1094 continues to unfold its mystery slowly, with Batman overseeing Robin as he goes undercover to a prison for youth. I can't talk about this comic without mentioning Mikel Janin's covers, this one in particular, has all the important players spread out under Batman's wings, beneath the shadow of the mysterious Asema and Scarlett. Their pink and red colors light up the sky, which makes for an intoxicating cover to look at. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Jackson Luken Feb 26, 2025

    Detective Comics #1094 has a lot to say about the injustices of the juvenile prison system, and it's going to make sure you know that. This sometimes manifests through emotional, character-driven scenes, but too often becomes a series of soap box speeches delivered to the audience more than anyone else. There is still a decently interesting infiltration mission underneath it all if you can get past the heavy-handedness of the delivery. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Gabe Hernandez Feb 27, 2025

    Detective Comics #1094has the makings of a rock-solid detective story when Damian goes undercover to find a connection between the murdered teens. However, Tom Taylor's nasty habit of overdoing his stances on social ills, such as the prison system, weighs the plot down and takes you out of the story more than once.5.8/10 Read Full Review
