Reviews

[Jayson · Rating 3 out of 5]

(B) 75% | More than Satisfactory
Notes: Not succinct, art's indistinct, big names don't add a lot, just "capture the flag," all action, but drags, an autopilot plot.

Idea great, didn't like the writing or the art on this one sadly.
Batman is working towards cloning himself to always give gotham a batman.
Lex luthor is the only one who has a compound that batman needs because he is obsessed with cloning superman.
Batman infiltrates lexcorp and barely succeeds.

Five years into the future and Batman has to fix his broken spine.

Pdf kitap arayıp indirirken tesadüfen buldum çizgi romanı. Dc ile pek alakam olmasa da en sevdiğim karakteri Batman. İlgi çekici görünüyordu. Başta olanları pek anlamasam ve Dc'den uzak olduğum için bazı karakterler yabancı olsa da eğlenceliydi. Devamını merak ettim, bulabilirsem onları da okumaya karar verdim.

The Batman clone idea will always leave a sour taste.

[Quinton Baran · Rating 5 out of 5]

So good I immediately read it again. I found the story to be engaging - it built slowly to an appropriate climax and payoff. I have seen better art, but this was very good and for the type of story, matched up very well.

Still trying to piece together what the hell is going on.
All this cloning, talking to Luther and the rise of an evil Superman.
Maybe Batman is going to die and the clone will take over.
Hmmm?

Very interesting premise, can't wait to see how it goes from there (or how it will all go wrong).
