BATMAN INCORPORATED NO MORE? As the Joker Incorporated storyline comes to its bloody conclusion, Batman Incorporated is left divided. They've crossed lines they swore they never would in the name of protecting the innocent. Now they're left to cope with the fallout. They may have won the battle, but did Joker win the war?
Overall, this was a fun series but I don't think the fusion of this crew with Ghost-Maker quite worked. They never gelled as a team, which may have been the point, and I'm hoping the very intriguing assassin gets more spotlights in the future. Read Full Review
I'm disappointed that the series ends with this issue. However, I appreciate that Brisson ended the title in a way that leaves the door open for future missions. Batman Incorporated plays an important part in the Batman mythos. Despite Bruce not appearing in the series, you see his influence throughout the twelve issues. This was particularly the case as the team became willing to push back on Ghost-Maker as he pressured them to willfully kill members of Joker Inc. Read Full Review
Batman Incorporated #12 was a fun little distraction for the Gotham characters that no longer have a place in the mainstream Bat-books. That aside, this issue was just “ok”. Read Full Review
Batman Incorporated's finale is a lot like the issues that preceded it loud, action-packed, and superficial. Read Full Review
Timms delivers some great art in the issue and I loved the visual style of the series. Read Full Review
Ed Brisson just gave up? The entire book surrounds Ghost-Maker trying to live up to Batman's standards, and then he doesn't. In fact, the events of the second act entirely unravels the good will of the first. Overall, it isn't saying anything, it doesn't make sense, the art is often jagged and inconsistent, and neglects the team for most of the series. Batman put a killer in charge of a group of heroes and only accomplished to kill and traumatize them. I can forgive the book being goofy, but the biggest sin is ineffectually criticizing Batman's effectiveness. Even if I don't approve of crafting DIY electromagnetic weapons, making the impossible reasonable is what makes Batman special. In that sense, most of the team prove themselves worthy of the cowl, even if they clearly need to find less challenging professions. Read Full Review
as a whole, while this series isnt as good as Grant Morrison's Batman Inc run, it's still a fun and entertaining series that I think anyone would enjoy reading. I would reccomend this to people to read Ghostmaker, and Clownmaker, as they're actually interesting and the ending sticks the landing. Also, consistently good art too
This was a rushed ending of a slightly enjoyable series. I have a lot of trouble getting invested in Ghost Maker or Clownhunter, I think they're very poorly constructed characters, and this series exploring them further didn't change that conception for me. I really like The Knight's design. That's my biggest takeaway for this whole series lol.
Yes and no. I really liked this series and I'm sad to see these characters go, but the ending to Ghost-Maker's story is bland as hell.
