A glaring difference from Tomasi. This story is garbage. It's more of a social lecture than a story that readers should spend their hard earned money on. Way to bring the series that was going well into the trash heap. Decent art work though.

You're better than this, Tom Taylor.

WOW! this was a Batman comic?
very dialogue heavy and uninteresting.

sorry DC, but your new status quo really sucks. Lucius Fox is a terrible replacement for Alfred. he has zero chemistry with Bruce. Alfred really was the heart of this series and it shows. he was the light that pulled Bruce Back from the Darkness, and added the much needed levity to have entertaining conversations with Bruce.
Lucius Fox was just very boring in this comic. and what the hell happened to his Plausible Deniability?

-this comic was Dull & Dreary.
-the dialogue was robotic.
-the art was 'MEH'.
-there was no real Action or Excitement.
-a chore to read.
-Detective Comics continues to spiral downward in quality.

Tom Taylor gives us a great new squad full of personality, plus his usual apt handle on already well established characters such as Waller and Harley. A few emotional moments involving the new characters felt a bit unearned since we'd barely gotten to know them, but given Taylor's proclivity for fictitious bloodbaths there was no way everyone was coming out of this unscathed.

Redondo and Lucas are an amazing art team as they've been since Injustice. The Squad is back, and I haven't been this excited for Task Force X in a long, long time! more

DOOM WAR!

Evil has already won and there's no take backs, t but wait! JL just extended membership to every hero in the DCU! I wonder what will happen with this new JLU. (To be continued.)

Well, they kind of dropped the whole JLU thing. Were they even in this issue? Evil has won and there's no take backs, but wait! JSA and Kamandi! (To be continued.)

Well, JSA and Kamandi had a few generic lines and then they pretty much dropped the JSA and Kamandi things. Evil has won and there's no take backs, but wait! Batman Beyond and JL Beyond! (To be continued.)

Well, the Batman Beyond characters were just there to hover in the background. Evil has won and there's no take backs, but wait! Kingdom Come characters and Nite Owl! (To be continued.)

Every character across DC Hypertime stands at the ready, silent, and off-panel. The Trinity fights Lex Luthor. Perpetua hovers menacingly again and says some more threats. Robin has a line and there's a panel of random JLU members, including a bonus shot of forgotten full-time member (since Drowned Earth), Mera! The Beyond characters, the JSA, Kamandi, Kingdom Come characters, and Nite Owl either didn't appear or their appearances were so forgettable I forgot they appeared. But wait! Martian Manhunter lives! Didn't see that coming. Wait! Maybe that's where those green thought bubbles have coming from since he "died!" (To be continued.)

Next issue: The conclusion of Doom War! Who knows WHO might show up for another thrilling, silent cameo! more

fuck off snyder with your written shit

Uh wow, this was shit.

I'm used to giving a 1-star review based entirely on Bendis' shitty writing taking an artist down with him, but this is the rare case where the art earned a 1-star too.

Good job, I guess.

DC, time to admit you got hosed.

For football fans, hiring Bendis was the equivalent of trading up to draft Mitchell Trubisky.

Maguire was welcome. The rest just no.

Where do I begin? The Art that comes off as a downright garish knockoff of Amanda Connor’s style; the bloated dialogue that uses 47 words where 12 will do or the nonsensical reasoning behind Clark’s decision to reveal his identity?

His son is gone, his father is dead (again) and his wife is living in a hotel away from what’s left of her family and supposedly writing a story about���we don’t know. Clark’s going to give up the last bit of normality in his life. Why?

This issue is a tangled mess of deliberately drawn out dialogue that culminates in a prologue that doesn’t succeed in setting anything in motion. In short, The Truth hurts.

Clark Kent is a shitty writer and a shitty journalist.

Bendis is a loser

Tom king is the worst writer of all time

Another home run from the amazing dan jurgens

Portland hipster trash

Didiot, you are a talentless hack, a void of infinite trash and nothingness. How dare you waste Shane Davis’s talents on your garbage

So bendis chronie Matt fraction’s hipster book is trash. Who’d a thought?

a piece of shit

Will perpetua have an uncle from the future past of another multiverse in which Batman has planned for 7 years for this exact occurrence??

Welp, guess it was fun. So fat neck beard al Ewing is having hulk fight climate change, billionaires, politicians. Just can’t keep his SJW trash out of the book, so BYE BYE

Hahahaha Man i'm just waiting for those guys who said: blah you don't understand bendis blahh you have to wait until the story unfolds, it's to complex to grasp at this point, well NOW i can say i told you so, he's not a genius, he's just a moron!!

It’s rare to see a single issue this astoundingly dumb be published. It pretty much botched the introduction of a concept and entire team of people in spectacular fashion.

Bendis, you are trash, RETIRE

Go to hell, bendis

Just two more months and hopefully this trash will be retconned
