The collaborative writing of both Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti turned this into something exciting. Here is where Batwing separates himself from Batman. Someone more willing to do what it takes to save those closest to him. I think many should appreciate something like this because the members of the Bat Family have their tendency of playing it safe, luckily Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti seem to get the idea that different is certainly better. If wanting a story from Gothtopia that really throws its hero into the fray, Batwing is definitely worth picking up as one that takes more risk. Read Full Review

With another issue under its belt, Batwing continues to be an enjoyable read, and with the book seemingly not going anywhere for a while, might as well take part in the fun it offers. Read Full Review

If you've been following this arc then absolutely go pick it up. I have some nitpicks about certain characters and certain aspects being dragged in from the Catwoman series, but none of that seriously harmed my enjoyment of this book which really felt like it had a lot of content for a $2.99 release. Very well paced. Read Full Review

The plot threads in the issue are a bit scattered, though each is interesting in its own right. Menace -- along with that peculiar fellow Rat-Catcher -- is behind the influx of drugs into the city, which is a pretty standard day for Gotham (and a storyline we've seen a few times too many), but when he learns about Tam's kidnapping, he shifts his focus to revenge as he targets another member of the Fox family. The underlying plot leaves something to be desired in terms of neatness, but Batwing's character development is fascinating to watch as he struggles to navigate an increasingly dire situation.
