Arkham City: The Order of the World #6 ends the series as it began: visually arresting, terrifying, and refreshingly compassionate to vulnerable people that society forgot. Read Full Review
Waters crafts a well done and meaningful ending to this interesting series. Read Full Review
Arkham City: the Order of the World brings everything crashing to a close. It's an Arkham Asylum story. There's no way things were going to end quietly. Read Full Review
While the saga of Arkham City might be over, this hopefully won't be the last time we see this creative team play together in the DC Comics space. Read Full Review
The art is brilliant and this issue has a great sense of tension to it, but some of the characterizationespecially of Azraelseems a little spotty. But it's hard not to get pulled in as this series rockets towards its tragic conclusion. Read Full Review
In all, Arkham City: The Order of the World #6 ends a creepy, atmospheric, violent story with more creepiness, atmosphere, and violence. That said, the ending brings readers almost right back to where we started, and the theme of the story is not entirely clear. If you're looking for style and atmosphere without much more, this book may be what you're looking for. Read Full Review
A great ending to a great miniseries. I'm not sure why DC published this, but I'm glad they did. If it was simply to get more Bat-Money, they should really start pushing for more out there titles like this one. I think less people would be tired of Batman. The creepiness and tone of this series was very enjoyable. The art, while definitely stylized, works very well here. I hope Dan Watters gets more work!
This was a fantastic finale to a surprisingly great series from DC. Its dark, its moody, the dialogue is lush, poignant, and engaging. There is no filler, each issue hooked me and I couldn't put them down. Ten eyed man is eerily fantastic throughout. The subversion of the slaughterhouse was brilliant. I never knew where this story was taking me. Every step of the way was densely dreadful. HBO if you're listening, this would be an awesome mini series to adapt and release near Halloween. With this finger I can see it would be a huge success.
