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.

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.

"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.
