Detective Comics #18 (2013)



Cover:

Actually, very nicely design and drawn cover.

Plot:

Things are not looking up for old Penguin, with his former assistant stealing everything he has and living him out to dry.  Batman hasn’t been doing too good either, with Robin gone and now Mr. Zsasz missing.

Our Hero:

Love his attitude to never give up.

Our Villain:

I don’t know.  The monocle thing seems a bit too much.

Our Side Characters:

Kind of a weird turnaround now with old Penguin being a side character now instead of Ogilvy, when it was the opposite only a few months ago.

Action:

Good old classic Bat-Punch.

Dialogue:

Who doesn’t love a good bird metaphor?

Art:

Love how the Children’s Center’s banner now has two “formerly known as” pieces on it.

Most Memorable Moment:

Batman always knows how to make an entrance.

Final Page:

For some reason, I always thought the serum was green instead.

What We Should Take from This Comic:

Ogilvy has taken out one of the two people he needs gone in order to completely rule Gotham. Now with obtaining the Manbat serum, he has the power to go after his next target.

What We Do Take From This Comic:

Nothing like crowbar-ing in an event into a comic that does not need it.

Yay or Nay?

yay
