Pretty big name villain though ;)
Good world building and some cool moments, along with the usual Snyder groaners (we get that you know Batman’s creators, Scott). The art is good, yet I’m not a fan of some of the character designs. Hate the cape. I’m going to throw this out there since I haven’t seen it yet: Mad Hatter involvement.

The year is 1939. The world, still reeling from the horrors of the First World War, is on the brink of tipping into an even more gruesome conflict, as fascism is on the march--and gathering strength in America's darkest corners. Against this backdrop, a series of violent murders has begun in Gotham, and the recent emergence of the mysterious vigila...
There is NO WAY this comic was worth the $7 price tag!
I honestly cannot remember the last time I was this bored reading a Batman comic. The beginning starts with a ton of exposition, by the time the headless victim shows up I had already checked out. The story meanders a bit more until Batman finally shows up in one of the most wonky, awkward, unsatisfying splash pages I've ever seen. more

Poor writing and dialogue get in the way of what could be an interesting story, wasting some good (especially character) art.

At last, a hero I can relate to! He is also still masking! (First overt reference in any DC book to the pandemic?)
A promising start by an accomplished talent, and nice that a new book can launch without having a guest appearance by a big name hero.
First seen in Wildstorm 30th Anniversary Special and Lazarus Planet: Legends Reborn, there's a new Korean hero named...City Boy! Or at least, that's the best translation of what the cities call him. City Boy, a.k.a. Cameron Kim, is just trying to make a living by using his powers of being able to speak to cities to find lost and hidden goods to paw...
It is a great start. Better than I expected. Also, the ending makes me even more eager for the next issue.

A really good, if at times a bit cliche, introduction to a new-ish character. The art is fine throughout, and the issue ends with a hell of a cliffhanger.

Very good intro to the team— just what a #1 book should be. MacKay mostly hits the voices of the characters, excelling at writing team leader, Carol Danvers. Art is good but I wish it was a little clearer and more colorful at times.
