Loved it. The script, the plot, and the art were all absolutely excellent. My only complaint was, couldn't they think of a better name than Straightman? Let's see how that goes next issue Read Full Review

This arc is a bit of a slow burn, but it continues to be one of the best alternate-universe Batman comics at the moment. Read Full Review

It leans into the story's mysteries which provide an interesting angle to explore the new characters, and allows their pasts to shape the conflict.

As usual, one of the month's better Batman stories. I'm not much of a fan of the Straightman character, but his origin is somewhat interesting. At least for such a second rate character. Otherwise it was a rather slow story, but as I said, still better than most Batman these days. It's one of the few Batman books left I'd really recommend.
