Comparing it as a direct parallel to Long Halloween and Dark Victory doesn't quite work, but this series is an impressive send-off for one of the greats. Read Full Review
Batman: The Last Halloween #10 ends the series with explosive action and emotional weight, beautifully rendered by Matteo Scalera, but its ambition slightly outweighs its clarity. While the finale delivers on thrills and Halloween-timed drama, it sacrifices some of the nuance and mystery that made earlier chapters shine. Read Full Review
It's strange on how much better and cohesive this story was compared to H2SH. While this was not on the same level as The Last Halloween and Dark Victory, this was still a very solid and strong conclusion to the trilogy. The rotating artists did not bother me, even with Batman being meaner, it didn't bother me as much. Jeph Loeb clearly showed that he enjoyed and really wanted to write this story well. And shout out to Tim Sale as well
I'm left scratching my head overall. What even was this story? Was it needed? I don't think so.
At least it was a nice shout-out to Tim Sale. I've enjoyed the different artists' takes in each issue. I really like Matteo Scalera's art in this final issue. It's worth reading the interview with him at the end. For me, this series has been all about the art. Unfortunately I think Jeph Loeb should have stayed away and enjoyed his legacy with classics like Long Halloween, Haunted Knight and Dark Victory. As a story, Hush is overrated in my humble opinion. And can we all just forget Hush2 is/was even a thing?!
I wonder how this will read in one go? I don't think I will be re-reading it though. If I want some Batman Halloween more
