Batman 89: Echoes #5 puts all the cards on the table in terms of the major players in this story, as both Scarecrow and Harley have prominent roles and Batman is officially back in action.

Hopefully well see Catwoman again next issue too, with more than just a quick cameo. Overall, this was a good addition to this story, but Scarecrow shouldve been in costume more. Read Full Review
