Paul Dini hits his stride with this second collection of his stories from Detective Comics. Again, we are let down by his pairing with artist Don Kramer, who is improving, but still learning his craft, but Dini's two part Zatanna tale and the reintroduction of Scarface still shine behind the lame artwork.
Writer Stuart Moore and artist Andy Clark produce a far better drawn two part story about Bruce Wayne being held hostage, while Royal McGraw and Marcos Marz produce a Terrible Trio story, ... Read More

The latest Batman trade paperback collects Detective Comics issues #827 - 834. This isn't one continuous storyline as the back description might have you believe but rather a few stories which are tenuously linked.

Batman goes undercover to find out who the new villain is...In the second story, "Shark Bite" Batman and the Riddler are both on the trailer of a killer who ... Read More

For me, this book seemed to much like the Batman animated series. The stories were not very "dark" and they just didn't seem as hard edged as I would like a Batman story to be (or as the cover would lead you to beleive). The art in this book seems very average.

Dini has done it yet again! The mastermind behind Batman the Animated Series, Batman Beyond and even more famous DC animated shows takes his spellbinding writing to the next level in this intensely beautiful and interesting graphic novel. Not only are the stories filled with loads of twists and turns but the art by J.H. Williams III, another alumni of DC fame, delivers the characters you know and love with breathtaking art. This book will be worth the money and I'm sure you'll read more than once.

I AM A HUGE BATMAN FAN, THAT BEING SAID, I AM BIASED AS TO ANYTHING BATZ RELATED, BUT I AM ALWAYS WARY NO MATTER WHAT TOWARDS STORY(1st)& ART (2nd).
OVER THE YEARS, THERE HAVE BEEN BATMAN STORIES WITH A GREAT STORY WITH TERRIBLE ART, AND GREAT ART WITH TERRIBLE STORIES. THIS BOOK HAS GREAT STORIES AND GREAT ART...I'VE BEEN AWAY FROM COMICS FOR AWHILE NOW...I HAVE A HUGE BATMAN AND BATMAN FAMILY COLLECTION OF COMICS AND BOOKS, AFTER I SAW BATMAN BEGINS, I WAS SUCKED BACK IN AGAIN.
