About this deal

I also loved the way that Scott Snyder provided an extremely dark and gritty atmosphere to this story as it may have snippets of “American Vampire” in it (well, it is written by Scott Snyder, who also written “American Vampire”), but it worked so well with the “Batman” universe and it just made the story even more interesting to read! He's captured and held above the killer whale tank, eventually managing to break free but not before Tiger Shark escapes. Of course, anyone who's anyone knows that the real shebang played out (and is still playing out) in the pages of the newest comic on the Batman block (and the last holdover from the pre-reboot era), Grant Morrison's Batman Incorporated, in which Bruce Wayne's war on crime goes global.

This storyline was originally published in the comic book series Detective Comics from January to October, 2011.Particularly this version of Batman, which is both a stunning visual work and possesses a strong plot. Also, this story has many gory scenes of characters getting cut up and killed that some readers might find a bit uncomfortable to read through. During winter, James Gordon tries to capture a serial killer dubbed the " Peter Pan killer" who abducts children and kills them by burning them alive. Refreshingly with Grayson as Batman, while the story is dark, Snyder focuses on hope and light making this Dark Knight book not quite so dark and bleak while maintaining its heart and soul. I really love that, in efforts to truly differentiate his Batman from Bruce's, Dick flies over the city on ziplines similar to a trapeze artist.

He is also the author of the short story collection, Voodoo Heart, published by the Dial Press in 2006. As the conflict comes closer to its resolution, they find that the truth behind this murderous crime spree isn’t just careening toward their doorstep—it has in fact emerged from it. Grayson struggles to make the identity his own, as he still does not feel comfortable living in the Wayne Tower penthouse like Bruce. comes to visit Gotham City and convinces his father and his step sister, Barbara Gordon, that he is a changed man and is trying to get back on the right path. Dick manages to free himself and escape while Tiger Shark gets away, and goes to meet James Gordon Junior to catch up with him.

As I said in the previous review, There are epic tales of the Bruce Wayne Batman that everyone mentions: The Killing Joke, The Dark Knight, Year One, The Long Halloween, the list goes on and on. This is a complicated rating for me because I will rate something lower if I feel like the main character wasn't characterized well or there wasn't any character development. Scott Snyder, with rotating artists Jock and Francesco Francavilla, has solidified the title as the place for serious crime fiction in the Bat-universe. I really enjoyed the ending where Jim Jr tied up the entire run from the very beginning of the Dealer and the Mirror organization all the way to his dealings with his step-sister Barbara. They believe he's going to use his connections with Leslie Thompkins to infect an infant nutrition center, turning hundreds of babies into young sociopaths.She is a decent woman who seems terrified, and Batman tracks her problems down to a weapons smuggler named Bixby Rhodes.
