No one prepares for Father's Day Fun like Gotham's Bat-Family. But when the Gordons' reservation for the evening is overbooked and they have to share a table with the al Ghuls, things really get interesting!
After two years of digital publication, "Li'l Gotham:" reaches it's finale with issue #12. The first of two stories featured is among the darkest and affecting that the series have ever done, and definitely not one for the kids. The final tale solidifies the series as something truly for all ages. It doesn't pander to kids with sugar coated stories, or to adults who just want another capes vs no capes fight. It's was something different, that broke the New 52 mold at DC. Dustin Nguyen and Derek Fridolfs crafted two dozen stories that were entertaining, emotional, and stayed true to the heart of the characters, big heads and all. Dustin Nguyen is surly about to become one of the most in demand artists at DC, but hopefully he and Fridolfs can find the time to return to "Li'l Gotham". Read Full Review
This is by far the best comic book that DC Comics is publishing and is a must read for every comic book fan, young and old. Read Full Review
As always, Li'l Gotham works for those that miss the whimsical fun to be had with heroes in tights, even ones born of darkness and stuff. Some of the art does a look a little rushed, with Nguyen's lines and colors not as tight as I've come to expect. Issue #12 might also delve a little too deep into the wacky territory with all the Bat-boys trying to cook for Alfred. Still, this series has me hooked. These are small missteps in a series everyone should try to embrace. Read Full Review
The first story in this final issue is a familiar but funny short that should be good for a few quick laughs and the very last episode titled “Our Family Album” was a remarkable way to end one of the most entertaining Bat-titles in recent years. It's a solid issue and one worth picking up whether you're a long-time fan of Dustin Nguyen and Derek Fridolfs' work or, surprisingly, if you're just hearing about Li'l Gotham for the first time.
