It's New Year's Eve and Catwoman has decided to turn over a new leaf. But resolutions are hard to keep when her pals Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn come around for a girl's night out! When these Sirens take the town, fun and foolishness follow.
As usual, both tales are endlessly charming and feature gorgeous watercolor artwork from Dustin Nguyen. The Easter tale stands out particularly. The opening sequence with Damian playing a video game boasts some creative pixel art, while scenes set in Mad Hatters nightclub are awash with lush colors. The only complaint to lodge specifically involves this print version. Each digital segment costs 99 cents while each print collection is $2.99. It's hard to justify that extra dollar, particularly when the art is designed for a widescreen tablet format anyway. But whatever format you choose, this is a Bat book every DC fan should be reading.

While this may be the weakest entry in series so far Batman: Lil' Gotham #4 was still highly enjoyable. You just can't help but have a smile on your face after reading the adventures of Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn in a chibi-style. Both the writing and artwork are on point as this book works as both fanservice and an all-ages story. Whether you're a long-time comic book fan, looking for a way to get into comics or someone you know than do yourselves a favor and download Batman: Li'l Gotham. Read Full Review
These two spring-themed issues worked well together I think, but neither of them made great use of their respective holidays. The Halloween and Christmas episodes are still the ones that stick out the most in my mind and even while this was enjoyable I don't think it has the same re-read value as some previous installments. However, there's some good laughs to be found here and it has some of the best artwork Dustin Nguyen has given the series yet and that's really saying something. He mixed it up quite a bit with some even brighter colors, characters we've never seen before, and even a bat-vehicle and an Easter bunny! Derek Fridolfs and Dustin Nguyen are producing a pretty fun and beautifully presented all-ages comic. Read Full Review
One can only hope that as the number of holidays Nguyen-Fridolfs haven't written about dwindles down, they'll be motivated to aspire to greater things, because festivities aside, these holiday stories aren't really cutting it anymore. Read Full Review
