BatSledge reviewed Absolute Wonder Woman #5 Feb 26, 2025
Beginning to end, this inaugural storyline was pure perfection in terms of both writing and artwork, akin to Scott Snyder’s excellent Court of Owls storyline in BATMAN 14 years ago. I can’t wait to see where the next storyline takes us!

BatSledge reviewed Absolute Batman #5 Feb 13, 2025
This latest chapter sizzles in the buildup to the finale. Batman dishes out amazing brutality and subsequently gets a brutal, violent beat down in return, all while the terrifying Black Mask ups the stakes for control of the city. This story hasn’t missed a beat since it started and is a pure adrenaline rush!

NerdDadBrad reviewed Absolute Batman #5 Feb 13, 2025
Every issues of this book has been Batman AF! This Batman is on a mission, and good to see. It's violent, and story driven. I prefer the art of Dragotta over issue 4. No spoilers, because you need to go to your local comic store and purchase all 5 of the issues. I'm very much looking forward to where this is going to go next!
I'll be covering several reviews on my podcast Lunchbrea more

motorik reviewed Absolute Batman #5 Feb 12, 2025
This Batman run is the best we've had since Scott was writing the main series.
Longterm, I'd love this Batman to visit the mainline Batman.
Their difference in method and morality would make for an interesting quandary to explore.
How do we take out the bad guys? With intellect or force? They are both Batman. Which Batman philosophy saves most lives?

I need this to be an ongoing series. There's so few ongoing series that are interesting right now. Ultimate Universe aside, which is awesome, main 616 is at an all-time boring level of writing right now, but then little gems like this cone out and remind me it could still be awesome again.
