Great end to a strange experiment by DC. I question the format and distribution schedule. I think I even missed a few issues… but really enjoyed this one. It was fun to read a green lantern book that I enjoyed.

Hyde Street 6 is a fascinating piece of satirical horror, intelligently written and well drawn, but yet again, the issue just ends somewhere, without a satisfying conclusion or even some sort of cliffhanger.

Hyde Street #6

By: Geoff Johns, Francis Portela
Released: May 28, 2025

The manipulative Mr. X-Ray wants OUT of Hyde Street, pronto. The closer he gets to snatching 10,000 souls, the nearer his freedom. And he wants to up the count in a big way: by capturing an entire theater full of poor saps who have found their way onto Hyde Street. But will one good soul ruin it all?

Another month, and another month where I wonder where the good writer I was told Dan Watters was?
Seriously, the comic has good art, good colors, look, he brought in a cool villain, and...... nothing. Nightwing doesn't do anything, Bryce and the lesbian cop get all the attention. The main "plot" develops so slowly that sometimes I wonder if it even exists.
Please, a new writer, and it do more

I love it all man, thought the last issue was magic. I am a bit biased as an Ice Cream Man fan. I just love Black Label non continuity stories that do their own thing. The weirdness, the strange Sci-fi and the avant story telling - all my bag. Anyone into any of that, that digs DC - I give this entire run my recommendation.

It blows my mind that some people don’t like Hayden Sherman’s art. If any series these year deserves a deluxe hardcover it is this one. Getting this and absolute Wonder Woman at the same time has been a gift. Sherman must have had the first six issues done upfront or something.

I just honestly wanted something other than what DC gave us for their main Batman series "reboot". It doesn't feel fresh or new, just more of the same old same old. Dan Watters has such a good handle on Bruce and his regular cast and all their distinct voices. It just would have been nice to get more of that on a regular basis. I'm happy that this 12 issue series exists. I'm just sad that it's ending and we're now left with an ongoing of a pretty 'meh' Main Batman title.

Even though i'm not 100% in love with Scott Snyder's 'Absolute Batman' series, it still is enjoyable that I look forward to reading it. It just feels like the limited out of cannon series are producing better stories than the main ones.
