Feb 15, 2022While it's an almost-great issue on its own, Batman: The Knight #2 feels slightly unnecessary when compared to similar stories from the past. Read Full Review

BGCP - Michael Lennox
Feb 22, 2022This stranger in s strange land take on the Dark Knight evolution is an interesting tale but cramming in the serial killer seems a bit of an overkill. The story was already strong enough with confident Lucie and petulant Bruce adding an array of skills to him and providing a blueprint to how his other skills will be learned. Sometimes less is more but still a worthwhile read. Read Full Review

Feb 24, 2022Maybe a lot" the art, the cover art, the script is very solid. Bruce is not cocky, dark nor confident. This book is starting to carve out its place on comic shelves everywhere. Read Full Review

Dark Knight News - Steve J Ray
Feb 16, 2022Batman: The Knight #2 is a good comic. If you're new to them or to the world of the Dark Knight then it's definitely worth picking up. If you've been a Batman fan and/or reading comics for close to 50 years, then maybe something else would be more your speed. Read Full Review

I am Batman'd out. Not even the upcoming movie holds my attention. But this series is dope. Zdarsky crushes what could easily have been a rote, boring cash grab. It's always uplifting when it's clear a creator had a plan and had a story to tell, and didn't just accept a project for the (admittedly necessary) paycheck.

Only 2 issues and is already one of the best things done with Batman recently, it's great in every aspect. It was also really fun to see where did Bruce develop a thing for cat like burglars lol.

9.5
Such a good read. Now, I liked the first part, not as much like the others, but it was solid. This I liked much more. I'm really liking how this series is told. Zdarsky seems to have a clear plan what he wants to do with Bruce and I'm all for it.

So much fun and engaging with good characterization. This Batman remix is the most interested I've been in the character in what feels like a really long time.

Yeah, this was better than the first one, there are still some lines that I didn't like but overall it was really interesting. Lucie is like a combination of Magpie, Ducard and Catwoman.

This book is awesome, I didn't expect to enjoy it the way I am, I didn't think we needed this story but honestly it seems to be exactly what Batman needed to be honest. I have the first two volumes of zdarsky's DD run at home, and they jump got bumped up the " needs to be read list " I think he's got a good voice for a young Bruce finding his way, and I really liked cougar French cat woman lol, we see why Bruce has a thing for car burgers now haha.

An elder version of Catwoman? Seriously?

I could've done without the puerile hypocrisy of Bruce justifying robbing the CEO of an oil company because he's a rich polluter when Bruce himself is a billionaire with a private jet, but otherwise this was a great story. Despite the countless stories told about Bruce Wayne/Batman, Zdarsky was still able to come up with a Batman story that is fresh and different than what has already been done before.
