I wanted to like this more than I did. The main story is obviously the selling point. I'm not a classic Milestone reader, so maybe it's just me, but I felt like there were a lot of missed opportunities here, and that the story itself just wasn't very interesting. The backups are fine. The Batman Beyond/Static team up was my favorite, and I am interested in seeing where that Blood Syndicate epilogue leads.
