Ra's Al Ghul "You took my advice about theatricality a bit literally" line in Batman Begins has never been so spot on lmao.

In this issue Miller and Mazzucchelli start building the myth around Batman, at first his is seen just as an absurd rumor, than we see a pattern, he's going after dirty politicians, cops, he's protecting the people of Gotham from common thugs, he's declaring war against crime in Gotham, doesn't matter if you are a big or small player he's coming after you, and everyone starts to fear him. The dinner scene is the perfect example, Commissioner Loeb is there to assure to the scum of Gotham that Batman is just a minor inconvenience, than we see Miller and Mazzuchelli deliver one the most badass moments I've ever seen in a comic. First the smoke, then the lights, then the wall, Batman walks in: "Ladies. Gentleman. You have eaten well. You've eat more

"Ladies. Gentlemen. You have eaten well." Seeing Bruce learning his craft is really exciting. Miller's ability to script action scenes is almost unmatched and with Mazzucchelli bringing those scenes to life it's almost too good to be true. Amazing.
