If you haven't bought into Batwoman yet, that needs to be corrected immediately. Many Bat-fans consider Kate Kane the black sheep of the Bat-family, instantly writing her off because of it. That's a dumb thing to do, to put it bluntly. Since the character operates on the fringe of the Bat-universe, it gives the creative team handling the book the creative freedom to come up with some truly unique and genuinely engaging stories. "Hydrology" has been a great example of this series' potential. Read Full Review
Thematically, this book is an absolute wonder. Deconstructing it through the pages, a lit major would have an absolute field day. And that's just this issue alone. Read Full Review
A remarkable arc in every way for Batwoman's first time out solo, resting on her own laurels. This is easily one of the finest offerings DC has in its collection of titles, and absolutely deserves every bit of praise it's been given. Read Full Review

Although The Weeping Woman storyline lacked any real impact, it has at least been given a decent send off. What does stand out is the new direction the creative team are taking the character. It's definitely an exciting time to be a Batwoman fan. Read Full Review
