A blockbuster issue! Written by Ryan Cady, Joey Esposito, Alex Paknadel and Dan Watters Art by Gleb Melnikov, Serg Acuna, Amancay Nahuelpan and Riley Rossmo Batman teams up with the Flash, Aquaman, and Black Adam in three spectacular stories in this special issue of Batman: Urban Legends, celebrating the Dark Knight's monumental year on the silver screen! Also features a Bat-villain-centric bonus story. Brought to you by four stellar creative teams. Perfect for old fans and new readers alike!
Overall, there isn't a weak link here and I'd love to see more of these team-ups in the future. Read Full Review
The story was decent in its narration, but it was not particularly engaging and probably too short to be as interesting as its premise. The art was good, but everything about the short felt unfinished. Read Full Review
Batman: Urban Legends #17 felt like a collection of Brave and the Bold stories of old, with unlikely team-ups and unusual stories for fans of all types. I can't wait to see how the next issue goes and who's going to feature! Read Full Review
I've already said it in this interview, but this issue is my favorite so far. Go buy it. Extra Extra credit for being comprised exclusively of one-off stories that don't feel like backdoor pilots for anything. Just good, solid content. Read Full Review
The classic detective feel of "On His Worst Nights" is a nice way to cap the issue, and while I wouldn't say any of these are must-reads, any Batman fan will find something to enjoy. Read Full Review
While not as well-rounded as other issues, 'Batman: Urban Legends' #17 does a solid job in providing stories that use Batman as a perfect lens to explore issues of friendship, power, collaboration, and how superheroes exist in our world. Read Full Review
Although the stories here are of uneven quality, I much prefer the one-shot format of the present issue. Here, the theme of Batman-DC Hero team-ups is effective and picks up a book that has been struggling. Read Full Review
Batman & Flash - 6/10
Batman & Aquaman - 3/10, this one was so boring and messy I couldn't even finish it
Batman & Black Adam - 9/10, now THIS is a writer I want at DC, great stuff for a short story, interesting time to set it too
Riddler - 9/10, again very solid for a short story
