The art is just great, throughout the series it has been maintained at a high level and it is something that stands out in the works in which Johns participates.

On the other hand, I am a big fan of Johns' works, he seems to me to be a writer of great quality who has made a good name for himself in the American comic industry, I really do not know and cannot imagine what relevance or impact this comic will have in the future of the DC Universe (especially when, unlike in the past, the "events" actually meant something and their consequences played out over time) but the mere fact of returning to the Flashpoint Universe (which I think can be exploited even more) with a story like this, of great quality, is justification enough to read this series.

Something that is not completely clear to me is the situation of Martha Wayne, her body was not buried somewhere in the desert, according to King's run in the Batman series...or she was the Martha of the "main" earth...

In any case, the reading is great and I hope a great closing. By the way, the relationship between this penguin and Thomas Wayne is 10 and for some reason, if Thomas survives I would like a particular character to become his Robin, it would be interesting in my opinion. more

Holy cow, I love this issue. Chip Zdarsky keeps this up, his run is going to be one of the definitive Batman runs out there, behind Snyder's Batman and maybe above Morrison's Batman. Great art, action, dialogue, characters (I love hte main difference between Regular Batman and Batman of Zur-En-Ahh) and hte ending gives me goosebumps. Jorge Jimenez is killing it with the art.

There isn't much more to be said about this issue that hasn't already been said by others who loved the book. It has everything. Morrison callbacks, Waid callbacks. When ZEA calls Robin, "Chum" I just started hearing a more gruff Adam West in my head. The action is there for the people who don't like to actually read and it's beautiful. Batman and Robin with lightsabers! Never have I known I needed something so much until I witnessed it. Even if people criticize this for being unoriginal or simply playing off of the ideas of older writers it's just so much fun and is exactly what those people have been clamoring for. Older Batman. Batman with flaws. Batman with a family. Sons and daughters that actually have meaning. And how could you not get a little choked up at the end? Bruce's thoughts of his family and the entrance of the strongest friend he has. Perfect. Sure this is all brute force right now but we know Zdarsky is a great storyteller. I hope we get more from Batman in a detective roll but we also have Ram V's Tec for that. All in all, it's a great time to be a Batman fan. more

My first contact with Batman in its continuity was with Morrison's Batman, from that moment I followed the character in form, going through the stage of Dick in the mantle, the Snyder/Capullo era, King's Batman and later without to move away completely I separated during the stage of Tynion, he never managed to fully capture me, what Williamson did seems acceptable to me and now with Chip in command of the controls I think that a great time can come for the character, something that over time will become a cult, or at least I hope so, because CZ's previous and current works are of great quality.

As a fan of Morrison's Batman, seeing Chip explore the myths created by him is very pleasing to me and the mastery with which he does it is an absolute delight, without a doubt it is a run not to be missed and although like everything it will have its very high and very low points I think the character is in good hands.

The classic and modern touch of the story is amazing.

Regarding the second narrative, we will see what it leads to...

Story 10/10

Art 10/10

Colors 10/10 more

Very interesting...

Woow!!!

EDIT: After reading this again, this just felt even worse than before. It's Spidey's 60th anniversary and 900th issue and this is what we get???

Well this was a very odd read. I'm perplexed by this issue. And very mixed.

Like, this story feels very filler(-ish). It really doesn't move the main story forward (except with "development" which is very... interesting?). But at least this doesn't annoy me nearly as much like #875 did with it's 10 dollar asking price (I will always hate Spencer's What Cost Victory).

The story itself is... fine? Like there is nothing bad about it. But it just feels so random. There wasn't really buildup on it (besides that small tease in #1), nor does it include any big moments. Like Spidey teaming up with Sinister Six fighting a Sinister Adaptoid? Cool I guess.

But this just doesn't feel like a big milestone issue, like #400, #500, #600, #700 and #800 did. I prefer all of those before this. It's not that bad, but it's not any in way a meaningful or an interesting read. Just a... fun story. And maybe that's enough for you. But not enough for me.

And no, it doesn't reveal anything about Spidey's current status quo, so there's that. It just... exists.

There is also a big problem with characterization here. Anna drooling over Otto? What? Most of the Sinister Six just being cartoonish bad guys? Vin Gonzales??? Peter sees Flash returning from the dead and is like "cool"?

Most is Felicia. After Nick set her up as a friend and Jed made such wonders with her character in her book, this hook-up feels... just unnecesessary.

And since it doesn't really end any big story (like 400, 500, 700, 800 did), or tease anything new (like #600 did), or have anything in it really, it just exists.

It's not... that bad, like I said. But certainly not worth this milestone number.

And to be clear, I did not expect this to "reverse OMD" or "reveal everything about what happened in 6 months", but I did expect something more. Not just a... Spidey vs. Sinister Six. Like after Sinister War and it's Sinister Thirty-Six, I didn't really need to see them as a team again. It just felt very random.

Like this story.

Art is great in all of the stories. Backups are... okay? (except the Kimmel one, I did not care).

In closing, Wells writes this series like a Brand New Day -comics 14-15 years ago. And this issue would be a lot better, if we were living in that era. But we are not. more

Well... it's not #500, #600 or #700 and #800, these issues closed cycles or previously planned arcs and opened story to new horizons, good or bad, that's something else.

Here we have something more self-contained, that does not close big plots and in theory does not leave big questions open (I say in theory because I hope that at some point certain elements raised here will be taken up again that highlight the importance that a issue like this should have).

While it is true the issue does not seem too bad to me, it is not as attractive as it is supposed to be, the art is good in general and an artist like EM would be good for the character, if they let him work at his pace.

The last page doesn't bother me, although with everything Spencer has done and the semi-stable relationship with MJ it does seem a bit strange, even in the context narrated by Wells at the beginning of this run.

What at this point is a bit tiring for me, subject to what happens in the future and what the story prepared by Wells has in store for us, is that after more than 10 years of OMD there are still certain traumas, demons or fears with giving Peter a partner and not changing her around the corner or pretending to revive old relationships that are going nowhere, I'm not asking him to marry again or undo the "mephistazo" I just ask that in the sentimental aspect of the character, Marvel follow a basic direction without changes right off the bat that don't transcend.

For me it is an OK issue close to the "meh" more
