This week we continue to see the fall of Gotham. Bards smirk needs to be wiped off once more as he finds humor in the plan coming together. Read Full Review

The storyline appears to be turning another corner, and now would be a good time to grab a few back issues and get into this book. Its seemingly found exactly what it wants to be and how it wants to get there, eschewing the more globetrotting, bombastic storylines for some real intimate, smaller-scale stories. Too many cooks sometimes spoil the broth, but thats of no concern here as the consistent quality of this book hasnt significantly wavered in several issues. Read Full Review

This was a very solid issue filled with engaging dialogue, riveting action, and its share of twist and turns. Eternal continues to deliver a strong and entertaining reading experience. While this issue did not wow me like the one from two weeks ago, it is still an engaging book worth your time and money. Read Full Review

So Hush isn't behind this after all… Was that deciphered Riddler code more than we thought it was, or is there more to the title of this series; Batman Eternal. Right now, I'm thinking it's either Riddler or Ra's Al Ghul. Read Full Review

Again the smaller cast this issue and the tighter plotting make this issue feel accessible to the new reader even if it is picking up in medias res. The set up for the next act is daunting enough to draw a new reader in. Batman Eternal continues to be a great Batman series with big ideas and quality execution. Read Full Review

The unfortunate fact surrounding Batman Eternal #34 is that we all knew how this was going to end for Batman since we all have seen Arkham Manor. Read Full Review

Eternal continues its long trek to what should be an epic finally. How will we catch up to this? Read Full Review

Batman: Eternal #34 sets the next big story in motion, but it's a bit more than just setup.  Batman and Hush battle it out and another young person finds out how dangerous it is to hang with the Bat.  Everything pushes the story forward which is good, but also doesn't allow it to breathe on it's own.  Most reader's will already be invested in the story as a whole and should find a couple of things they like here and be excited to see where it goes.

This issue just let me down. I you are going to speed months building up this confrontation, then don't make it last only four pages, guys. I just feel cheated. Read Full Review

We've spent so little time with Batman in this series that nothing in this issue lands with any kind of emotional impact. Not him losing his company, not his boring fight with Hush. This is all just 'Paint By Numbers Batman', and it's just so boring. Read Full Review

It's amazing how, week in and week out, the "Batman Eternal" team can craft a story that encompasses every aspect of Gotham City. Kyle Higgins, on script duties this week, delivers the first of (hopefully) a few confrontations between Batman and Hush. And while the confrontation is physical, it's the mental battle between the two that really shines. These two know each other so well, and Higgins is able to communicate that relationship well. Alvaro Martinez does a great job on art duties this week. His pencil work is great, and I have to give a special shout-out to the splash page of Hush sitting on a pile of weapons. Awesome. "Batman Eternal" is ramping up week to week, and everyone should be along for the ride. This book is highly recommended. more

While the issue may not be one of the best Eternal issues so far, it does deliver one of its more satisfying twists.
