Obviously the big cliffhanger from this issue is the revelation that Victor Fries' father might have been a Nazi defector who had some kind of partnership with Bruce's parents. I'm going to wait until the next issue to get more information before I comment on that further, but suffice it to say that I am highly intrigued. As it is, I think I've said more than enough. In my opinion, this is the strongest issue thus far in a series that is an instant classic in the Batman mythos. Don't wait to read it. Read Full Review

This series might be the harshest way to destroy a Bat. This is a must-read, gorgeous series. I think one of the best stories DC has out so far. The art is fantastic, beautiful. This issue was political, and there aren't many action scenes, but it opens up eyes. There are videos out there where Hitler talks to his public, people that are close to him and he looks so human. Even the biggest monsters can look human and envoke love and sympathy. Read Full Review

This issue caught me off guard. It hits you in the heart with a storyline that has had you doubting every character you thought you knew. It really is subtly and beautifully done by Murphy, and with all the other events that are going on, you have this foundation being laid for what is essentially a brand new character to build on. Jack loves Harley and all this is for her. Or is it? If these four issues have shown anything, its that this story is unique in its sane madness. A Batman story in reverse where the villain goes to higher highs while Batman tumbles deeper and deeper into exile and hatred. Perfect. Read Full Review

Overall, Batman: White Knight continues on track to be a great addition and twist to the Batman mythos. Looking forward to seeing how this one ends, and where it'll leave Batman, Napier, Harley, Gordon, and so many others involved as the Joker goes political. Read Full Review

Finally, Sean Murphy and Matt Hollingsworth continue to give us their best work, this insane story of Jack Napier (The Joker) becoming Gotham's White Knight will be one to be talked about for years to come. Read Full Review

I have said in past reviews of this mini-series that I can only hope Murphy can finish this mini-series with the same level of storytelling that it began with because if he does then it has the potential to become one of the top five Batman stories of all time. I cannot recommend this mini-series enough. Read Full Review

Batman: White Knight has truly been an incredible series thus far. It appears to be definitively answering the 80-year-old question of if Batman is truly Gothams savior or does his crusade only beget more turmoil. The only terrible thing about this series is it released issue-by-issue rather than right away in a complete collection. Read Full Review

This is definitely a must-read for anyone looking for a book that tries it's hardest to put this confusing world in retrospect and loves the Batman mythology as much as Sean Murphy. Read Full Review

Another outstanding combination of smart dialogue and gorgeous artwork,Batman: White Knight #4 brings more intrigue and heartbreak for the Dark Knight. It has tremendous relevance for our time, but avoids the Twitterpated reductionism of your average pundit. It's a smart book that doesn't look down on its readers, and that's a rare thing"something we should celebrate. Read Full Review

The plot thickens and ramps up to eleven. Read Full Review

While this middle issue is set up heavy, Sean Murphy gives readers a whole bunch of things to smile about.  You'll have to read the issue to find out just what they are, but that and the awesome art are well worth the price of admission.  To dig into the reviewer's bag of phrases...you'll pay for the whole seat, but you'll only need the edge!

Batman White Knight should have been a bit more socially conscious but still manages to be a good read overall. Read Full Review

Jack Napier's plans for Gotham's reformation further calls Batman's crusade into question in this middle chapter of Murphy's politically-charged and exquisitely-drawn Batman tale. Read Full Review

This was another great issue with some fantastic moments. The overall plot might not be getting me too excited right now but as long as he continues this character work, I’m along for the ride. Read Full Review

The art is breathtakingly dark in its vibrant expressions. There's not a whole lot of smiles going on in this book, which opens us up to the many subtle variations the face is capable of making. Ive noticed a consistency of imperfections as well: at times Batman is slim, and in other panels hes too bulky. I am unsure if thats intentional, but the effect is an eye catching one that doesnt disrupt the flow of the story. It actually has the opposite effect; because the entirety of the tale is so intelligently executed, it makes me ask myself why is this here? Anytime a flaw can draw you deeper in is a sign of a good story being done well. Also, I want to say, Im totally digging the jacket over Nightwings outfit. I didnt think Id like it, but I do. I really do. Read Full Review

This is a very political comic and seems to have a lot to say. Does it always land? No, but it does some very interesting things while it tries. Read Full Review

Batman: White Knight #4 begins on a jarring political note, but ends with the fun twists on the Batman mythos that made me first fall in love with the series. Read Full Review

BATMAN: WHITE KNIGHT #4 by Sean Murphy gives us a true White Knight as Jack Napier cleans up Gotham's streets and moves funding from Batman to the GCPD and broken down neighborhoods. Could Batman actually be the bad guy here? Read Full Review

With each issues I find that murphy do better & better on the story.
I have to tell that I didn't was ready for much of it and very surprise.
Now I like both harley (I will not thanking him for loving the false one^^ )
I like this version of Duke Thomas (Maybe more than the real one)
That said at halfway we didn't have much. Batman is still outside & we are not really sure of waht will brig Joker to Arkham to see Batman.
I'm eager to have more.

Cover - I take the variant cover; Very nice & related to the story. 2/2
Writing - Like I said Murphy improve with each issue. 3/3
Arts - Beautifull, I love it. Not tired to see his art. 3/3
Feelings - I love it, if you didn't take it already you have to. Or wait for the TPB you will not regret it 2/2 more

This is a very interesting take on the Batman mythos from an elseworld perspective. We're at halftime and it's been a good read so far. Surprisingly, the reason this series is good is not because of Batman but rather Joker/Napier. The character development on Batman so far is that he's super grumpy over a sick Alfred... I mean we arguably got an angrier rage Batman when Damian died in New 52 and Batman lost his $hit even worse during that time imo.

The story and characters only get deeper in this issue. The only thing stopping it from being mid-arc perfection is the lack of Easter eggs that were present in the earlier issues. Get on this book now!

Again, I can’t help but root for Jack and root against Bruce, and we get that Neo-Joker backstory that was desperately needed. Honestly, the GTO is actually a really good idea

This series is pulling me in more and more as the issues come out and this one feels like it really sucked me in for good. The characters are crafted and developped with a lot of care and it shows as the story progresses. Napier, Gordon, Harley(s) all change but with such credibility it just flows. The writing is top notch and the visual complements it perfectly (with reason since the same person does them both). All the references to the main Batman mythos, but twisted in a cool, unique way, are stacking up to be an extremely compelling read. The only flaw that's left and is not yet ironed out is the fact that the villains are used as an excuse for other things. There a just too many of them to make sense. I just don't believe they could just band together like that so easily. Maybe some lower level thugs, but Bane and the Penguin? seriously? Anyway, small details that do not make it a lesser series after all. more

Best issue of the series so far.

This has been a good series so far. I liked this edition better than the last. The art continues to impress in this great story.

No one knows how to react now that the Joker seems to be the most reasonable and stable man in Gotham. It is as if the chaos vs order relationship between him and Batman has been jammed into reverse.

"Joker saved my life"

Slow one. Lots of politics and talking but thankfully it picked up the pace later.

Neo Joker backstory was really good, sad and, I guess, uplifting at the same time.

I find this series to be boring with some poor art. I'm done with it after this issue.
