This was probably the best "Next Batman" story so far. Not that Tim is a compelling character or anything but the interactions between characters were pretty good and the art was very dynamic. Unfortunately, the backup stories were pure shit, especially Vita Ayala's. She's just not a good writer, I don't think I've read anything from her that I liked. I'd say I don't know why she keeps getting themore

Vietnam, 1969. Juarez, forty years later. Three men tied by the war they left behind-on collision course with a new one.
Overall, this issue has a lot of high points. The introduction is good, and sets up the next story arc to be an interesting one. The art by Todd McFarlane is stunning, but the issue starts to get lost towards the middle. As the issue progresses, things get more and more confusing, without getting any explanation as to what anything means. As the story arc progresses, hopefully we will begin to seemore
