    I got to admit, as a Batman fan I do think this story is overrated. It's genuinely good, has great art to elevate it. But the problem was that the whole mystery was convoluted. I get that people see the Riddler as the joke, but the execution could have been better because The Riddler didnt show up a lot, so the revelation didnt work. Thomas Elliot's plan is very convoluted, I dont know how he knew Bruce Wayne's identity, and while the action is good the story falls flat in the end. So while I really enjoyed the detective aspects, there are some stuff.I wished could have been better

    This is one of those stories that started with huge potential then failed horribly. I will first write good things about it. The art style is sleek, which gives Gotham that noir dark ambience while capturing the vibrant essence of Metropolis. The character design is very good ngl. Catwoman and Poison Ivy especially. They look so freaking charming, sexy. The chemistry between Bruce and Selina was done beautifully and you'd be eager to see how it unfolds later in the series. The dialogue, particularly at the last few panels, was witty, sharp and clever, which gave us a pretty good look at Batman, and I won't say whose character. It kinda reminded me of the interactions between Littlefinger and Varys from Game of Thrones. Now for the bad pa more

    I read this in prep for H2SH, because H2SH definitely deserves my time. What I realized reading these two comics back to back is that they're literally the same. If you liked Hush when you read it back in the day, give it a try again now. You'll notice the pacing, the meandering plot, the lack of mystery, the routinely dull artwork, etc, is all present in this "classic tale". Everything everyone is complaining about with H2SH is present here.

    I've always said that Hush was a shallow and overrated piece of trash made solely for the lowest common denominator, the type of person who lacks the brainpower to critically dissect a poorly written mystery. Jeph Loeb is in full Ultimatum form here, a hack who depends solely on his name and corporate branding to sell. Looks like I was proven 100% right, looking at the people who are desperately shilling for this, like the pedophile apologist and his weird parasocial relationship.
