Get ready for an explosive 12-issue maxiseries written by Andy Helfer (THE SHADOW) with art by Tan Eng Huat (JLA) and covers by Pat Lee (SUPERMAN/BATMAN) that explores the formative years of the Dark Knight! This thrilling maxiseries begins as Batman attempts to save a young girl from being robbed, only to learn that the young girl isn't so innocent after all.

Es complicado acostumbrarse al dibujo sobretodo cuando vienés de los noventa y lo agresivo y sombrío, pero luego entiendes el colorido y la imagen aniñada de Bruce cuando te das cuenta que esto es más que violencia va de la construcción de la psique de Bruce y de como pelea con sus demonios, de hecho me gustan mucho estos diseños, los dos primeros capítulos me cuestan pero que se vean tan caricatirescos y sin ser tan cuadriculados me gustan lo mismo me pasan con los rebirth y el n52 que creo que es una buena modernización
I saw this pop up in the DC app and decided to give it a go. I like the premise a lot. We have a drug that is doing its "ebola" thing to people and Bruce is trying to get to the bottom of it. A fun first issue that was heavy of the exposition but sets the story up well enough.
Can't find in this in a trade, so would have to read it issue-by-issue, which is annoying but manageable. Problem is, it's very meh so far, so just gonna skip over this one.
