This week Tynion gave us some humor along with some big moments (drama!) to the ongoing story. He touched base mostly on the affairs regarding Batman and his allies, showing us that coming together and trusting one another is going to be an important piece of the story. A brief recap on the state of Harpers training also serves as a quick reminder to readers that shell be joining the bat-family soon enough. Read Full Review

The complaints about Hush are a little more fanboyish than Id like, but since were not getting his origin until next issue, I have to judge him based on my previous experiences as this is storyline is the first weve seen of him in the New-52. The rest of the issue stands up amazingly well, Im particularly loving the banter between family members we havent seen much of together (Jason Todd and Tim Drake NEED their own spin-off) and Im enjoying the development of Harper Row. Its also very cool to see that theres still a villain or two that can keep Batman on his heels, ever off-balance. It has a humanizing quality, and thats whats at the heart of most great Batman tales.

Batman: Eternal continues to prove worth the weekly purchase, with the final page of this issue having me excited for the next. Highly recommended. Read Full Review

R.M. Guera is a welcome sight in Gotham City. The artist, who made his name on his grim n' gritty collaboration with Jason Aaron Scalped, injects Eternal with the adrenaline it needs as Hush makes himself more known and the Bat family pulls together. Read Full Review

Overall, Batman Eternal #25 is a solid entry in the Eternal saga! This particular issue made some solid progress. It's certainly one to watch for on shelves and feels like we're being set up for some good status quo changes and meaningful character development. Read Full Review

This issue of Baternal is setup,  but it's setting up the Bat Family for a triumphant return to glory.  Batman is already getting frustrated by Hush so it's good the Family is ready to help again.  The story, dialogue and character moments are great fun for fans, but the art was a little off.  If stories like this continue to be featured, I may start getting serious with this book.

This week's issue isn't the best, but isn't the worst. Worth a read for sure as well as your $2.99. Read Full Review

Mayor Hady is upset because he believes Bard to be dead, but Bard stumbles in, acting like he barely got out in time, and convinces Hady to declare Martial Law. Meanwhile, Red Robin, Red Hood, and Batgirl pull Batman out of the ruble of the building. Read Full Review

While this issue had some enjoyable character interactions, it had just as many character depictions that were ill-fitted to the individuals displaying them. The art in this issue also receives a serious downgrade from what I have come to expect from the team involved with this comic. While I would like to tell you that this is a skippable chapter of Eternal, I am afraid that there are a few important things that happen, that you will most likely want to read for yourself. And there is always the occasional enjoyable joke. Read Full Review

Batman Eternal #25 is hideous! Characters look like misshapen monsters, especially in the face. And everything is some jagged, ugly, off-model mess. Art on Batman Eternal has usually been pretty solid, but this issue is an abomination. I hope Guera doesn't stick around. Read Full Review

An easy to jump into issue over 1/3way through the series, which is remarkable. The book feels like a good Batman story and it incorporates so many elements which make the Bat-Mythos so enjoyable. There is a lot to like and a lot to digest, but the creative team does a good job with it all. The direction of the development with the family dynamic is a feel good aspect to the book which makes it very likable. This may also point to the meaning behind the title of the series. By creating a family and not a team Batman will in fact become eternal. This is really 3 1/2 Daily Planets. Read Full Review

Bad art, cool story. Glad to see Hush in an integral role
