    Is there any superhero that suits the futuristic spin as well as Batman? This book answers that question with four great Batman stories that play in sandboxes already created, but bring in new and clever ideas. If you've come to worship futuristic Batman, Batman: Urban Legends #7 is a cathedral of great ideas, visuals, and brilliant delights. Read Full Review

    Batman: Urban Legends #7 paints different futures for the Dark Knight but ultimately shows that no matter the era, Batman will remain a constant. With a new Batman Beyond series teased for next year, this is one of the strongest issues thatUrban Legendshas put out so far. Read Full Review

    When you consider the strength of all four stories, this is one of the best issues of Batman: Urban Legends thus far, and it proves how powerful and entertaining the anthology format can be. Read Full Review

    Batman: Urban Legends #7 is a catalog of things to come or imagined. The issue starts really strong and heavy with known entities such as Terry McGuinness and Damian (Whew… Batman 666 is going to be an AWESOME story) but it lost me with the Manga incarnation of Cassandra Cain and the Pluto story of a Batman of the distant future. However, you need to pick this gem up if nothing more for the setup of Batman Beyond and Batman 666. Those will be your crown jewels, and you may love the others too! Read Full Review

    "Hunter…or Hunted" and "Batman with no name" weren't exactly the best anthologies we've gotten so far in this series. As much as I enjoyed the Batman Beyond story, Batman: Urban Legends #7 isn't on the same level as the previous six issues because it lacked that strong second story each of the prior ones had.

    Comic Book Revolution - Kevin Lainez

    Sep 15, 2021

    Each creative team that worked on Batman: Urban Legends #7 showcased how strong the franchise is by the exploring the Batman legacy in different timelines and universes. The Batman Beyond story in particular does a lot of great work to make you want to see more stories from that universe. All in all, Batman: Urban Legends #7 is a yet another example of what has made this series such a joy to read since it started. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Jay Yaws

    It's strange, because it kind of gave me what I wanted (mostly standalone stories), but even then it wasn't in the manner that I was expecting. That's not always a bad thing, I just wish the overall package had been more consistent. Read Full Review

    All the stories were fine, definitely not a 10/10, but the issue still gets a 10 cause of how great that Batman Beyond story is

    It's not bad. I the only stories that I really enjoy were Terry McGinnis, Cassandra Cain, Damian Wayne and Batman Infinity.

    The future never looked so uncertain; so rife with prospects but full chances to mess up. I've seen so many takes on Batman Beyond, that what came after the show felt like parodies. Yet, what's a tribute like the Batman Beyond when a new year starts with Gotham City ready to start a new chapter? In the Future State chapter, I think I'm seeing in there what a lot of American comics are lacking. A focus on making action and panel progression instead of just making pin-up art. That's what I felt from the Batman 666 chapter. As for the One Million chapter, it captures the best of Batman in terms of legacy, action, and the spirit of the Dark Knight.

    I didn't expect to like this, but I did. 7.5 for the Batman Beyond story, 6.5 for the Damian story (that last page killed it for me, it was better until then), 6.5 for the the third one and 7.5 for the last one.

    I liked the Batman Beyond story, I'm actually kind of looking forward to what it set up. The Future State story honestly didn't even leave an impact on me, I've forgotten most of it. The Batman 666 story was trash. The DC One Million story had some cool ideas, and I liked seeing all the references to the different Batmen, but it wasn't written very well.

    The stories were good but I am a little sceptical about how it is going to play out in the first two stories. either Terry will have a new interesting villain or one of bruce's old ones or they will do the stupid thing where they will use "family vs family" line and make Damian the villain like they have NO new ideas. The Damian batman story seems weird because it falls under the same old poorly written Damian, this is a character who has been trained since birth plus he left his past to join his father's path but it seems al the writers see is the he brat means he Destroys the city I mean like seriously. They Neve explore why he is a brat or what is the story from his perspective, they all write him like same who will destroy the ci more
