It's been quite a well written book as of now with batman saying and doing batman things. Plot is fairly decent aswell.

Intriguing first issue that had me hooked from the first few panels. A great new insight into what used to be a somewhat dated character. Kudos to Camp's story and Rodriguez's brilliant art.

Ewing has captured the whole crazy essence of the very dysfunctional Metamorpho family. Well written and very aspropriate art by Lieber, this comic takes me back to my childhood.

This used to be one of the titles that helped make Marvel the most widely read comic book company. Sadly the current run does not reach those heights, in fact it is so poor that for the first time in decades I may cancel my monthly order.

Tom King always starts his stories very well. This is often followed by long periods where he meanders and the story direction becomes unclear. The mark of a great writer is to tie it all together at the end. In the past King has not always nailed his landings. Hopefully he will for this story arc. So far the first two issues are detailed and thought provoking. Kudos to Jeff Spokes for the art.

If Tom King writes a comic the trolls come out of the woodwork. This is a very well written and beautifully drawn comic. The cover and the full page bondage panel (page 3) would have been banned under the Comics Code thanks to Dr Wertham, thankfully those restrictions no loner are enforced.

With respect to the tribute to Simonson & Buscema on the opening page. I would have preferred that the art team went more with Kirby who would have told this tale in fewer pages without losing the dynamic art. I did not want to buy a book just of poster art and I feel I have been short changed.

Batman #428: Robin Lives! #428

Always felt that casting Batman in a Space Opera is like casting Aquaman in a sequal to Dune. Clearly a case of a fish out of water. Back in the 1950s there was a run of Batman and Robin fighting aliens either on Earth or being transported to the ends of the cosmos. Those stories were cute but rather peurile. My feeling this story arc is similar

Eventually the villains become more interesting than the hero. This series sums up a complex relationship between all of the Flash's best adversaries. For someone who started reading Flash starting with Showcase 4 I thought this was a worthy finale for all the Rogues.
