A very special "silent" issue! This is the first wordless comic ever from either BRIAN K. VAUGHAN or MARCOS MARTÍN.
In this issue, which features art by Clay Mann and Miguel Mendonça and a cover by Clay Mann, darkness looms as the unholy trinity of Ra's al Ghul, Circe and Lex Luthor gather! As the deadly and mystical Pandora pits are bubbling over, Circe's dark prophecy is foretold -- but which side will Lex, the so-called "Superman of Metropolis," fall on? And...
Some of the rogues' gallery cameos worked well but others were too brief to really amount to anything at all. And why was Bane bloodied after we see no one do any damage to him?
"I AM BANE" part four! Batman is losing...Bane is going to break him for good this time. The Dark Knight must turn to a very unlikely weapon to beat Bane once and for all!
The story is alright but the change in art is too jarring and doesn't fit in with what had been established in the previous issues. And whatever was supposed to be the big deal about Pretty's face did not pay off.
Mother Panic isn't the only one hunting for revenge in the streets of Gotham City. The terrifying Pretty is after the next name on Violet Paige's hit list. But is he a friend or foe-and how is he connected to the mysterious Gather House that made Violet who she is?

"I AM BANE" part three! Bane broke the bat before, but it wasn't enough-now he's going to break everyone else! Bane is coming, and no one is safe!
I really wish they'd just let Barrows, Ferreira, and Lucas handle all the art on these issues.

Determined to unmake all the world's institutions of governance and control, [REDACTED] orchestrates a series of prison breakouts across the DC Universe, forcing Harley Quinn, Deadshot and the rest of the Suicide Squad into their most dangerous mission yet: keeping their former super-villain comrades in jail.

A solid story.
John Romita's art was hit and miss but Eddy Barrows, Eber Ferreira, and Adriano Lucas saved the issue on that front. This is nitpicking but it seemed a bit strange that the art took on a painterly quality for the last page. It looked great, the style just didn't match up with the rest of the second part of the issue.
"BURNING DOWN THE HOUSE" part one! Spinning directly out of the events of JUSTICE LEAGUE VS. SUICIDE SQUAD! Hidden somewhere deep within, the world is a burning flame. Its light is blinding. Its heat is deadly. It's a fire fueled by hatred, by rage and by vengeance. Used, abused and left for dead, the greatest foe the Suicide Squad has ever faced r...
"I let him get this close." Why do these things keep happening to Batman, the World's Greatest Detective? And seemingly misunderstanding Bronze Tiger's motives.
The Batburger section could've been fine if the series was a meta take on Batman but here the tone just doesn't fit with the rest of the story.
Repetition seems to be a theme here: "And yet..."; "I am Bane", which more

The art in this issue is mostly great. I love how well Liam Sharp's and Laura Martin's work gelled together here. On the first few pages where Wonder Woman's in her room, even though there's little dialogue, the art is really able to tell the story.
"THE TRUTH" part one! Diana has finally seen the full scope of how her life and history have been transformed...unfortunately, the knowledge has driven her completely insane!
