    Loeb built this universe with Sale over a very long process, and the current partnerships are doing a great job of paying tribute. But like every mystery, including the previous two, it'll ultimately only be as good as its final reveal. Read Full Review

    Batman The Long Halloween, The Last Halloween #3 leans heavily into the Detective Noir genre as the stakes rise. We are left on a cliffhanger, moving the story into more mystery than action. I'm very much continuing to enjoy this run and it should be a priority to read each month! Read Full Review

    Batman: The Long Halloween - The Last Halloween #3 is another solid entry in the series. At this point the the story feels par for the course and on the edge of feeling like a rehash of Batman: The Long Halloween and Batman: Dark Victory without anything significant to add. However, the series has acted as a wonderful opportunity to honor and pay tribute to Tim Sales legacy. Read Full Review

    The artwork by Mark Chiarello was the clear standout ofThe Last Halloween #3. It elevated a kind of so-so story by Loeb, but I'm still happy to be in the Gotham of The Long Halloween and still want to see how the mystery plays out. But I do recognize that my interest is waning just a little bit. Onto issue four! Read Full Review
