Absolute Batman #3 is another solid issue to the series that presents an opportunity for Batman to take his approach to his fight in a different direction. It also adds to Bruce's past and a much different childhood than what we've seen elsewhere. Overall, another interesting issue that adds new layers to this version of the Dark Knight.

Absolute Batman #3 continues to fully embrace the absurdity in how over the top its action is. It even manages to have its cake and eat it too by making its characters point out how ridiculous things like a giant dump truck Batmobile really are, while still savoring every minute. The issue is more exposition heavy than previous ones, but a combination of exciting action and interesting world building keeps it from ever getting boring. Read Full Review

This issue is good but just fair warning it is not as a c tion packed and involves politics. I have to te read it to understand bc scott snyder exposition is a bit sterile amd bland

The first thing I will say is that I always love seeing Bruce and Selina together, and I love Absolute Alfred. I mean, come on, "I may actually love Batman." This had me cracking up, but there was still something missing for me personally. Maybe its Roman Sionis; I'm not sure, but it just doesn't feel like that big of a bad, like they don't make it feel that BIG to me personally. Everything from when they were younger was so perfect; I love the relationship between all of them, and then when Bruce was going to leave, they all appeared, and you see Martha in the back really hit me in the feels.

I'm very much still loving this book and can't wait to see where it goes and how it ties in to the wider universe!

I like Snyder's take so far on a young vibrant Batman with a truly great understanding of how all his friends eventually become his enemies. The down side i suppose is it's a bit rough and uneven in places and skips around timeliness to much. I say to much as it disrupts the action and makes it less than I think it will rad as a trade.....nonetheless I enjoyed it enough.....JM

Sus Gabe does it again! SuS take of the week!
