This is a perfect ending for a classic run. I can't wait to reread the entire thing. Read Full Review

Tomasi and Walker's successors on Detective Comics have huge shoes to fill as this has been a very entertaining ride that deserved another extended encore. Read Full Review

Pete Tomasi has had a long run on Bat-books, arguably being the writer who defined Damian Wayne the most"even more than his creator Grant Morrison. So it's fitting that his final issue on the franchise (save the digital-first Super-Sons series which just started) is focused on the father-and-son dynamic of Bruce and his son. Read Full Review

I can only hope that this final issue is a sign we'll get more of Damian in the future as he travels the road to redemption (Joshua Williamson will have a two-part back-up story in the pages of Batman and Detective Comics in March). It will be tough not to see Tomasi and the team on Tec as I had such high hopes for the run. However, I look forward to the new direction with Mariko Tamaki. Read Full Review

While it's disappointing that this is Tomasi's last issue of Detective (and one assumes Walker as well) that doesn't mean it's not a really good issue! This team will be missed! As the future appears quite uncertain for Bruce, Tomasi, Walker and company deliver a moving and emotionally significant story to close out this era of Batman. The real human emotions deliver on another level and are what separate good comics from great comics. Read Full Review

I really like Brad Walker's art and I'm going to miss it in this book. While most of this issue is really just Batman giving a beatdown to Hush, it takes much longer to read than you would expect with what you get out of it. I was hoping that some mending would begin to take here between father and son, yet unfortunately, that is for another day. But that ending? Awesome. I mean, get the pets into anything and I'm happy.

This issue is not as good as it could have been. Both the writing and the art are hit or miss. But I don't entirely blame the creative team for this comic's shortcomings. Their run got cut short and they only had so much room to wrap up their storylines while simultaneously setting up someone else's. As a single issue, I wouldn't recommend this because it's an average book at best, but as a conclusion to Tomasi's run I think it's worth picking up if you've been following since the start.

I wish Tomasi could have gotten to go out on a stronger storytime, but I feel like a lot of his stories will be more fondly remembered over time. Read Full Review

Another great issue it's a shame tomasi won't be writing this anymore he has been great. I was really hoping tynion would write it again as he is fantastic but I'm sure Mariko tamaki will do a fine job as well

This was a really good arc. Loving Tomasi on Detective, too bad this is his final issue. DC why do you hate Tomasi?

The biggest flaw here is that Tomasi clearly had plans for what comes next that we will never get to see.

Hush's derangement is on full display in this issue. I loved seeing Damian give him the full scalpel treatment. Brad Walker's art was a treat.

It's too bad this is Tomasi's last issue. He wrote way better than Tynion does or most Batman writers over the past 12 or so years. I hope he'll be back here or on Superman again one day soon.
This was a little boring an issue for his departure, but it does leave one wondering what's coming next. I guess we'll have to put up with that ass Nakano for a couple of years until the writers decide to kill him off and start a year long mystery of who did do it while the public will blame Batman (Do I know Batman comics or what?).
As for Damian, I never liked him. He could get his head chopped off by some axe carrying weirdo and I wouldn't care. So what becomes of him, I couldn't care less.
Tomasi's run was still a good one. I doubt it'll be anytime soon they have a writer like that again. Odds are he'll be replaced by another of those guys who tries to make a name for himself by taking us in more unneeded "New directions" in 8 or more part stories. more

This was alright. It was a very quick wrap up, but I guess things had to end.

After reading the first issue of this arc, I had high hopes. They weren't really met, but in isolation, this issue put a bow on things satisfactorily.

That was easy!

Not a bad issue. I didn't like the shill for "Future State" for the next two months. I'm saying Buh bye to DC during that time. They need to get Alfred back, dip him in the Lazarus Pit or something, I don't care how just do it because the Bruce being all Emo over it is getting tiresome.

6 only because of Brad Walker's art, otherwise I'm really tired of Tomasi's favouritism regarding Damian as if anyone but him in the Bat-family just doesn't matter.

It is not a bad number, if you want to know about the Batfamily that does not happen here they are 100 focused on the drama between Bruce and Damian, it is a little too much noise, few nuts and it heads to Future State with Nakano winning as mayor.
However, what I don't like is that they leave so many things in the air again, they just used the silly enough capture of the family to make them bond and then they completely forget about it. Readable, yes, extraordinary. No
