For centuries, the Silent Seven has held Earth in its evil grip...but nothing lasts forever. The Shadow and Batman have infiltrated the Seven's personal stronghold, hidden off the map and away from history, at great personal cost. They didn't expect to find one of their own standing against them once they arrived. It's Robin versus Batman with society itself in the balance as the Shadow steps into the one place even he has feared to go: The Deadly Mind of Shiwan Khan. Can three generations of crimefighting overcome centuries of evil? It's a crucible they can only overcome through the one thing none of them have: trust.
The final issue of The Shadow/Batman offers superheroics at its very finest as two unique characters team up to topple the forces of evil once and for all. Read Full Review
If you're not read The Shadow/ Batman, then you're honestly doing yourself a disservice. Go buy this issue! Catch up if you need to! And when the collection is released, buy it because it's worthy of a prominent, face-out display on your bookshelf! As far as I'm concerned, this is a classic in the making! Read Full Review
In conclusion, I'd like to request less post-modern character deconstruction in stories with The Shadow and Batman going forward. I'm a fan of old-school pulp storytelling. I find efforts to add psychological layers usually come off as pretentious. Read Full Review
This series started out strong but didn't quite stick the landing for me in its final issue. It was still an enjoyable read and I'm sorry to see this story end. Read Full Review
