Overall, not every story in this book hits on all cylinders, but this is one of the most fun anthologies DC has done in a while. Read Full Review
All things considered, this is a pretty strong anthology. You get fun gags, great characters, solid art and good stories, despite two of the stories not scoring as high. If you're looking for a fun book to read with your kids (again, you might want to read the Azrael story yourself first), or if you're just looking for some entertaining, light reading, we recommend this anthology!

Despite a tendency for the cheesy and the heavy-handed, this giant-sized collection showcases some of the robust humanity that defines DC's catalog of characters. Read Full Review
Like every anthology, DC Saved By The Belle Reve is a mixed-bag, but the average skews towards the disappointing. Read Full Review
This book is a mess. The only story that was slightly interesting was Azreal, Watters has no clue how to write the character.
People wondering why DC can’t make any money need only look at this $10 atrocity. This is just one example of many that shows that the publishing house has no respect for their fan base
