Things are heating up around Gotham as Drake struggles to cover the whole city while Dr. Crane and Dr. Quinzel’s methods begin to endanger it even more! Can Batman find his way back, or will he be lost to his fear for good?!
These books are very much paced like a movie, so it feels like we're about to hit the epic final showdown but there are a lot of villains to get through. Read Full Review
Batman 89 Echoes #4 is a significant improvement from the previous 3 issues in this series as the action is intensifying and the main characters have all donned their respective costumes. We even see the return of Michelle Pfeiffers Catwoman, which makes one wonder if she will once again interact with Batman and whether it will be as friend or foe if she does. What are Scarecrow and Harleys plans for Gotham now that theyre outside the asylum? And will Riddler step into his own costume and supervillain identity? At this point he seems more of a reluctant ally rather than a true villain. All in all, this is a very exciting issue. What might Batmans first confrontation with Scarecrow be like, and is he prepared to protect himself against Scarecrows fear toxin? Read Full Review
This book is starting to grow on me. A lot of it is thanks to the amazing artwork by Quinones and Ito, but the story has its fun moments. The slow pace of the earlier issues comes back to haunt this one, but hopefully, from here onward, the pace will manage to even out. Read Full Review
Batman '89: Echoes continues at something of a slow pace, even as things begin to explode and costumes are revealed. Read Full Review
While the series is highly unusual in its pacing and seems to really be holding back showing Batman on-screen, it is still a fun treat to read. Quinones' pages look amazing and Hamm does craft a compelling narrative now that the pieces are in place. Batman '89: Echoes #4 is an overstuffed gothic Batman adventure that may intrigue some readers or bore more impatient ones. Read Full Review
Batman 89 Echoes sets free both of its villains in an issue which sets up a potentially deadly final battle on the streets of Gotham. Joe Quinones artwork continues to breathe new life in to the world of Hamm's story. Read Full Review
Batman '89: Echoes #4 is a beautifully drawn and colored book, but the story continues to bewilder, confuse, and disappoint. It's beautiful but completely aggravatingoverstuffed with too many characters, subplots, flashbacks, and secret motives. Read Full Review
