That feels like a sweet spot for King to effectively tell his story without stretching it out andwasting time. Aun así es un tebeo espectacular en cuanto a dibujo y color, y ojalá David Marquez y Alejandro Sánchez repitan pronto con King. It wasn’t their plan; they were the hired help, with their contact being another newbie, The Penguin. If you’ve read my last review of a King project (The Watchmen spin-off Rorschach), then you know I am not a huge fan.

The Help trips Catwoman, and she loses the Eye as they fight, and it rolls down the hill, picked up by Clock King, the Fourth Man in Riddler’s plan, and he holds the world. However, it does have some really entertaining scenes, an interesting non-linear form of storytelling and a great ending, that I found quite meaningful. When Tom King pitched this comic as sidestepping the philosophical questions of Batman for something more fun, I wasn’t convinced he had that in him.I’m always eager to see what the villains are up to, though, and this mini-series by Tom King focuses mainly on two of them, a pair we don’t see too often: The Riddler and Catwoman. There are some jaw-dropping images on these pages, and every issue has at least 2-3 pages or panels that I had to stop and bask in.

Two of the new, colorful rogues, Riddler and Catwoman, have just pulled off the heist of the century, robbing Wayne-Gotham Securities, getting away with 1.

I’ve read too much of his work not to expect at least some subtextual musings on the nature of the characters present. That’s not a problem, because by this point we know their motivations well enough to accept each character’s actions for what they are. She pulls out her gun, saying she doesn’t have any more money, but Batman tackles her from the air as she fires at Catwoman.
