I wasn't sure how this title was going to play out when it was announced, but so far Brisson and Timms are making it click while doing their best to make it more than just another in an endless series of Batman-related titles. Read Full Review
Batman Incorporated #4 was an issue for the villains, which is a welcome change in a team book. A lot of time time's only spent on the hero-team up, making this chapter a solid read. Read Full Review
Combined with John Timms' scrappy and gorgeous art, Batman Incorporated is continuing to grow on me with each passing issue. Read Full Review
I like how the story is wrapping up and also leaving us with cliffhangers. I think the writers have been doing a good job with these comics and I look forward to the next issue. Read Full Review
A common criticism of Ghost-Maker is that he is a Batman wannabe. After seeing so many actual thinly written Batman wannabes, I might disagree. Ghost-Maker is a man with the potential to be Batman or better, but chooses to pursue criminals for pleasure. The more the character embraces Batman, the more other characters and readers will remind us how much he fails in comparison. Therefore, I can say with confidence that this book will fail if he doesn't arc soon. The team suffers in the shadow of a Ghost-Maker driven narrative, and won't improve until set apart from Batman's standard. Without a mystery to hide behind, Batman Incorporated needs to strengthen it's core narrative and cast. For now, the artwork is fine, but the story is in trouble. Read Full Review
This book has so much potential to be truly great, but, as another user pointed out, the large cast and all of the other ongoing plots aside from the main one just really drag this down. I just don't think there's enough room in a comic for all of these characters, especially considering that there isn't much interest built in them. Whenever I start reading about the other characters, I find myself anticipating when we'll get back to the plot with Ghost-Maker, Clownhunter, and Phantom-One. It was cool to see the other antagonists of the side stories coming together and tying everything back to the main plot, but I really hope this book can just get a bit more focused.
This series has been pretty messy. The massive cast and expansive plot really hurt this issue. The Knight has a great design though. That's literally been my only thought about this series the past four issues.
