    The black and white motif continues in this issue. The artists do a great job with conveying the tone of their particular stories. And the detailed artwork really immerses you in the story, especially in the secondary tale. Read Full Review

    While the lack of color has been problematic previously, it really works this issue and, in a sense, brings everything we've seen thus far together in a rich and immersive way. Read Full Review

    This issue was awesome. I loved the background that we got from everyone, and we now have a more solid foundation of what's happening. Although, that ending still leaves many questions unanswered. I wonder if we'll eventually see a double or even a triple-cross! Guess we will have to wait for the next issue. Read Full Review

    Envy disguised as many names and now tries to pretend that he speaks another language but it is still notorious who is the madman behind the trauma, I gloat myself at how sour it gets with the growing popularity of Red Hood. I liked the story, it was well done. A pleasant surprise and I am going to exaggerate my qualification just to be visceral and gloat the pain of others.

    Leaving aside the art, and the idea of "‹"‹imitating a manga without understanding what it takes to make it, likewise excluding the second story even though it is not so bad. I like it, it's not perfect but Joshua has points in his favor.

    "You more than anyone understand the sacrifice that must be made for the great good. Ours only real difference is a matter of scale." Warmonger. The art is not as fantastic as it should be in a comic, imitating a manga, the story is fun and relaxed, that's what I like here.

    I can't help that the manga-like art is so thrilling to witness. The action and tension feel raw, putting more emphasis on presentation. From the look of things, it seems a villain is building up that will make Future State something to remember. I just hope the Bat Family doesn't tear itself apart in the process.

    I can say that Williamson is doing a decent job in several numbers of different series and I like how he's trying to respect the canon when possible, I liked this number, its development was interesting and how Jason weaves things to give the following step, not for nothing is an excellent strategist even that many writers like to forget it.

    nice development, even being future state that has been insufferable and the tendency of the publisher to continue with this bad idea, I can say that as the series progresses it is the most pleasant to read of all the FS disaster that is usually as we say in my land for just a read to kill flies.

    Nice read, but I think some freelance writers are doing better for a young audience. Some will know what I mean.

    I've liked both stories, Red Hood here is pretty competent and the second one is not bad either if you don't think too much about it.

    Joshua took the action well, damn it, I think that at the moment he is among the most decent to read in this editorial, his writing is somewhat juvenile but nothing compared to that of Tom Taylor who looks like a puberty young girl doing fanfiction and the surprising thing Zdarsky does not have plus the quality of before, it did well in the history of Red Hood even though it is impossible to put it in the canon and I think the same will happen with Matt even though he does not have the same performance in said art. As a personal note, the supposed Portuguese woman with great grammatical flaws who uses google translate, I don't understand why she follows Red Hood so much if she doesn't like it. That I imagine is an alt of a very nervous p more

    I thought this was going to favor the pathetic impostor Batman, but it wasn't as bad as I thought

    Não me ofendeu. Não tem cores(sei que é a proposta, mas se eu quero ler um manga eu compro um manga) e isso não trás nenhum beneficio a arte, o cenário de Future State é desinteressante e como tudo que o Joshua Williamson escreve do núcleo do Batman, parece uma fanfic para agradar fanboys(Robin 5 está ai para provar). A única coisa que me mantem aqui é o Jace.

    I don't know why this series exists. It just feels boring and lazy. I don't see it lasting too long, given its higher price.
