    The Batman Universe - Ryan Blair Sep 30, 2015

    Overall this was quite an interesting story that showcased Jasons true fears and sees him fighting back and getting ready to take on Bruce. Again, not a completely necessary story but it did allow for the final stages of setup that we would see in the Arkham Knight game. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Reggie Hemingway Sep 30, 2015

    This is asolid comic that details the Arkham Knight's motivations and personal fears inways that really support his characterization in the game. The art isphenomenal, and there are lots of really cool scenes, but it's not so vital orgreat that I would beat down a door to get at it. I will suggest giving thisseries a try in general, and this could be an okay place to hop on. This is a goodBatman book and I suggest you take alook. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Jay Yaws Oct 1, 2015

    If the main Arkham Knight book were the plot of a video game (again, you know what I mean), Genesis would be the narrative cutscenes, Riddler's Gambit(I promise, review forthcoming) would be a Riddler challenge, and this annual would be a side mission: helpful to understand things better, but not outright necessary to complete on its own. With a solid script and fantastic illustrations all around, though, it's well worth taking on. Read Full Review

    IGN - Jesse Schedeen Sep 30, 2015

    If nothing else, DC's various Arkham Knight prequel comics have been helpful as far as fleshing out the titular villain and his rivalry with Batman. This annual issue continues that trend. The catch is that the story is too light and straightforward to really justify the length (and therefore the cover price). Read Full Review

    DC Comics News - Sean Blumeshine Oct 7, 2015

    This issue is fine. The art is good and certain portions of the hallucinations are intense. But, there isn't much else to really make it stand out. It feels very much like a supplemental piece. It's not bad but there are better books to read. Read Full Review
