We go from Batman Zur en Arrh to a joker story with 2 timelines?
Uh, ok. I want to ask why, but let's just roll with it. I don't really want a joker origin/year one. I think it'll be lame/weak. Just like I didn't need to know how Han Solo got his last name, I don't need this. If anything, just do the future story.
The tragic death of the leader of the Red Hood Gang in a vat of chemicals has become the subject of myth...but what is the heartbreaking and gruesome tale of the monster who walked away from that violent birth? And how does it affect Batman's distant future? The Joker Year One begins here!

EISNER AWARD-WINNING STORYTELLER RAFAEL GRAMPA'S TWISTED VISION OF THE DARK KNIGHT! When you chase your own shadow...it leads you into the abyss. In a Gotham City where every day feels darker and more irredeemable than the last, Batman makes a definitive choice--to kill off the Bruce Wayne identity for good and embrace the cowl full-time. But thoug...
I do not like this series. I think there are seeds of interesting story here but everything feels pretty disjointed and unclear. Crytoon's explanations feel like its pulled from a high schooler who thinks they're the deepest person.
I also think this is an interpretation of Batman which is so out of sync with anything that is Batman. Maybe I would be able to swallow this plot better if it wer more
A devil cub falls to earth and breaks its wing... In the unmissable second installment of acclaimed storyteller Rafael Grampa's masterpiece, the skies over Gotham grow darker still. To decide to kill your past is one thing, but actually doing it proves to be more fraught a road than Batman ever expected...especially when that very same past grows m...
I just read the Sins of Sinister issues and this, to me, doesn't hold up. This feels like deus ex machina, forced. This didn't feel like an especially insightful strategy and for all the bureaucracy of Krakoa, there was never any contingency for this? I'll just make a list:
1. In Sins of Sinister, Juggernaut is shot through Thanos' head. Now, in an equivalent maneuver, he cannot break a robot more
THE FALL OF X BEGINS HERE! The Hellfire Gala is always the biggest event of the season...but this year's will change everything for Krakoa.

This special Two-Face issue is split in half artistically by maestros Rafael Albuquerque and Ivan Reis to portray the struggles Harvey Dent goes through trying to stay alive with the help of his more evil side... Genius writer Ram V not only devised each page of this story to be a dark reflection of the page facing it, but also of itself from front...
Batman investigates the frozen Azmer that Mr. Freeze gave him, and makes a huge discovery about the ancient demons. Meanwhile, Azmer begin to pour into Gotham’s streets, controlling helpless people and those poor souls the city cares not for…all to do the Orghams’ bidding.

Intriguing start! In arcs like this, they always make defeating the rest of the world look too easy. This one felt a little more 'believable', for whatever that is worth. I'm interested to see where this goes

I'm finding this a refreshing arc. Not everything has to be end of the world/time. A little world building meanwhile hinting at mounting tension in the shadows
