If you are looking for an action heavy issue as the first three issues, you will not find it here. This issue was really character driven, specifically driven by Batgirl, and I loved it. The reality is, this issue's plot played out exactly as I wanted it and exactly as it was supposed to plan out. I barely saw any negatives in this issue and it is probably my favorite issue in this series so far. This is a must read!

We are five issues in and so far I am loving every minute of Batman Eternal. This issue specifically was a good issue I think there were some dialogue issues, some over-utilized scenes with Vicki Vale, but overall, Batman Eternal Issue #5 is a good read. You will enjoy that is a Tim Drake/Red Robin focused issue. The dynamic between him and Batman will pull you in with every word. Plus this issue makes you want to go back and read "Death of a Family", if you have not done so already, just to truly understand the hurt that Red Robin is feeling. This is a must have if you are a Red Robin fan and you love his and Batman's dynamic.

I love that I have the opportunity to review Batman: Eternal as an arc and I love it so far. With that said, Batman: Eternal Issue #6, as an individual issue, has a lot to love and is a good read. It is not an action-packed issue but it is a very creepy yet beautiful issue to counteract the lack of many action scenes. With Fawke's supernatural implants into this arc working in tandem with McCarthy's artistic talent for bringing the supernatural and gruesome scenes to life, this is a good buy.

BATMAN ETERNALis finally picking up how I wanted it to, especially in this issue. We are starting to get movement on Falcone's plans since his return to Gotham at the beginning of this arc and it seems that, as readers, we are in for one hell of a joy ride. This issue is a must read!

If you love The Vampire Diaries show, if you loved the “Grunge” arc and if you love Stefan and Damon Salvatore, then you will love this issue. The writing was excellent, the art was excellent, and it was a fantastic conclusion to the “Grunge” story arc. The Vampire Diaries Issue #23 is a must have and a must read!
