I like this book more and more with each new issue. The section with Rao in Africa taking cues from a philanthropist kid from North America was fantastic. And I've seen the whole 'split the league up and reduce their power/effectiveness' thing dozens and dozens of times, but this one feels....new? Keep it going Hitch. I didn't want to like this, but now I guess I'm loving it.

I m really getting in to the focus on the police here and there were some good layouts in the panel work - a very natural and intuitive flow. Just make this book full-on GCPD with RoboBat as the occasional heavy.

Again, Fabok kills it. Some of the dialogue didn't flow as it should, and I caught two lettering errors, which affected my enjoyment of the story. Interesting that both Batman and Superman have been currupted, really only leaving Wonder Woman as an able leader. Flash is down, Shazam is (as always) a kid, Cyborg chimes in on technology and serves as transportation, and Green Lantern seems to be cas Again, Fabok kills it.

Too rushed and disjointed. My favourite issues of the series slow it down and build character/ tone. My least favourite feel like episodes of Scooby-Doo. This time? It was the gym teacher! Zoinks!

I cannot believe this is a DC book! The art and the pacing of the writing scream indy masterpiece. What a great book. I'm in until the creative team is changed up.

Wow. A The Littlest Hobo reference?!? References to the Tar Sands of Alberta?!? Awesome. And as a true bilingual Canadian, I just love the French dialogue. It's like Vaughan is writing this book just for me and my similarly raised generation of 'Nucks. We are a small but loyal potential readership. I wonder what Yanks and younger readers take from the book without a full comprehension/appreciati Wow. A The Littlest Hobo reference?!? References to the Tar Sands of Alberta?!? Awesome.

I still enjoyed it, but preferred the initial juxtaposition of the character in the creators' world to this one where the creators are coming to grips with the character's reality. And is it just me, or do we get one outrageous sex scene and two jokes about Hinkles's anaconda per issue? As others have pointed out, the writer's epiphanic moment felt a touch forced and phoney here - too bad consider I still enjoyed it, but preferred the initial juxtaposition of the character in the creators' world to this one where the creators are coming to grips with the character's reality.

Not as good as the monthly, but the setup for Gent. Ghost to return and plague our team will pay out later. The cleaner more traditional artwork was not what I needed here, but the interplay between the two detectives and the threat that GG provided made for a good noir ghost story.

Finally! A villain I can really hate. No chance the Jason's pull any type of sympathetic note out of Eslaw's bio - despite his religious daddy issues. This guy is just plain nasty. I wonder if his 'no finess, hit em hard' philosophy will put him at odds with the new bowman hinted at in the letters pages? And speaking of the extras after the story, that essay/rationale by Latour regarding his aweso Finally! A villain I can really hate.

The fake-out at the end was quite good, as the bonus previews from the previous three issues are replaced with something else here. Still don't know a thing about that cross-dresser from the last issue, but this finale does wrap up in a satisfying way, with multiple layers to the fictional narrative. It's complex in the best ways, but like a lot of interpretive art, it leaves you really wanting to The fake-out at the end was quite good, as the bonus previews from the previous three issues are replaced with something else here.

A few cool moments with non-linear storytelling, but the backgrounds need more attention as the art gets more stylized in this issue. But please tell me what is going on with the bookends of the cross-dresser on the first and last page. And where did my notes go? Loved those things at the bottom of the page in issue two. No doubt about it though - each issue seems to have a different "thing" going A few cool moments with non-linear storytelling, but the backgrounds need more attention as the art gets more stylized in this issue.

Okay. Something happened here. This comic just got a lot 'smarter'. The villain is shown to have crossed over with the protagonist via flashback. Neat. The origin of the villain's insanity is depicted and echoes back to a rant he gave in issue #1. Strong. But then there is a forth-wall breaking bit of post-modernism (or "meta" as the internet seems to love to call it). Very cool. And the notes? In Okay. Something happened here.

Had to work to read some of the panels in terms of where characters were in the space, also when multiple scenes were presented simultaneously and because after-party hotel shots of passed out nude girls seem to be a common setting here. But I like how the characters talk and act like the people I know; these people seem to have ended up how we would have if we wouldn't have embraced societal resp Had to work to read some of the panels in terms of where characters were in the space, also when multiple scenes were presented simultaneously and because after-party hotel shots of passed out nude girls seem to be a common setting here.

The dialogue doesn't feel right at all, the plot is basic and clunky, and for the first time in a long time Syaf doesn't bring the ruckus with his pencils. A skippable issue.

More cops, less Batman focus and more interesting artwork, and we'll have a winner. Poor Detectice Comics. From Daniel to Layman/Fabok to this current team, to the next one - no one can find their footing on this title. We need a nice long consistent GCPD run with lots of detective work going on. And the occasional cameo from Bats. If the main book is summer blockbuster, this one has to be charact More cops, less Batman focus and more interesting artwork, and we'll have a winner.

This gives me the story of character reactions and hesitations about the idea of a new Officer Batman that was missing from Snyder's book - which I liked. But I need better art. I know we were spoiled by Manapul, bit the pencils need more dynamics, especially in the action sequences. Seeing Montoya back with Harv is nice though.
