The Black Diamond continues its journey through DCs history as it shows up in 19th century Gotham.
Overall, I definitely enjoyed this issue. I love that you get two very different stories and I think the newest adversary to Hex and Arkham is definitely one that has piqued my interest. The character is interesting and taken right out of a classic novel, something I can appreciate. I think the creative team also really managed to find the voice of the character, too, which is important. The shift in tone halfway through the book is not only appropriate, but it is done so with ease. Save for some panels in the main story that felt a little bit sloppy, this was still another great issue of ALL-STAR WESTERN. Read Full Review
Palmiotti and Gray close this book with a bang, but it mostly serves to counteract the blandness of the issue's lead-in. Judging from the last two pages, though, there should be something about which to get excited in the next few issues of All-Star Western. However, it might be asking too much to expect a winner this month. Read Full Review
The back-up mucks around with history in a futile sort of way, and while main feature has all the right toys in the sandbox, they haven't resulted in much worthwhile play. Read Full Review
