When Commissioner Gordon suspects there’s a mole in his precinct, it’s up to Batman to keep a witness safe until he can testify. But this particular witness is a crooked lawyer with ties to every criminal operation in Gotham City, and Batman finds himself under attack from both sides of the law!
The standalone nature of the tales here continues to be the big draw for me and Mark Russell nails another one with this story. It's a little convoluted at first until you get into the rhythm of it but once it gets underway you can see it as a simple story that might be included in a TV show or film as an opening bit of fun before the big event itself. Benjamin and Friend continue to do solid work with this title as I really like their take on the characters and the city as well as providing for some good action and even a bit of lightness thanks to Harley. Hopefully, they have more stories in the future through the DC Giants and this form. Read Full Review
Batman: Gotham Nights #5 is is a decent one-shot Batman story that is big on set-up, but light on the story. Mark Russell has Batman go through the motions, and besides a couple of guest stars, there is nothing here you haven't seen a million times. Ryan Benjamin's art is good, but in the end, it's easy to see why this is a repurposed 99 cent issue. Read Full Review
