    Overall, if you want some classic Logan, fantastic fight scenes, and want in on the start of something new, head to your local comic shop and grab, 'WOLVERINE, from the ashes.. A new beginning.' Read Full Review

    The Batman Universe - Gareth Turner Sep 18, 2024

    Batman: Gotham by Gaslight - The Kryptonian Age #4 is still very much in table-setting mode four issues in. As long as your patience isn't starting to wear thin, there's still plenty to recommend this book on. Read Full Review

    Batman: Gotham By Gaslight - The Kryptonian Age #4 gives Elseworlds fans plenty of cool developments to chew on with the introduction of Superman's supporting cast of characters and the first Green Lantern. Admittedly, the plot and direction of the story take a back seat to the world-building, but the twists are interesting enough to hold your attention for the time being. Read Full Review

    I really like the world and characters but this series really struggles with pacing. There's so much going on without much progression that it makes it hard to get fully invested in the story.

    This really isn't a Batman book. Nor is it really a Gotham book. Diggle has jumped it off the rails to include the artic and other areas. They should have named this book differently as he didn't hold to the concept of the original. It's throwing me to be honest. Wonder Woman is with Adam strange in the artic and now Allan Scott has a Green Lantern ring that only works three times. Catwoman has not been seen again and Batman is barely seen in this issue. I'd like Diggle to get back on track in the next issue.
