all this setup for this shitty end. Seriously its like hey we made a scary old version of Damian and they were like how do we ruin it and make him weaker than any other batman. My guy Damian is supposed to be back after defeating HELL he literally would be the strongest there even without joe chill. Nightwing didn't have any proper arc either just a plot at the end to be a sacrifice and the biggest mischaracterization; Damian would be a whole lot better then nightwing as Dick would make sure Damian is better than him. he literally was his robin first.

And no sorry but Jace has not done nearly enough to be the only batman, literally almost every other person in the bat family is still more qualified Then him. But obviously DC wants Jace to be the next batman so whatever. more

How could someone miss the characters so much. Literally all three characters are completely wrong. This isn't even injustice or something like that (an else world) this is supposed to be what would have happened instead of Bendis ageing him outside world. This is absolute character assignation. DC stop giving Tom King to write these characters, he does NOT know how these characters work he just like to write some fan fiction version of characters with angst stories. He did the same with Batman and other related characters. more

Please do not ever let Tom King ever write Batman again.

Poor, poor Clay Mann

What a waste. But at least it's over.

Everything about the writing of this series was just so... wrong, bad or poorly done. There really aren't ideas here I like. And I like the execution even less.

Only the art saves this from being a 1.

tom king is the most overrated comic book writer of all time. I read this series just so I can actually have hte credentials to critique it, and wow. Usually I say critics are right, but I dont know how critics can give this a positive review.

All the flashbacks to the past and flashforwards to the future dont matter at all, it all felt like a waste of time. This 12 issue series should have been a single one-shot to be honest. The dialogue is clunky and the art is mostly good.

overall, dont read this series. This entire series is a 3 out of 10, and thats because of the art. more

Tom king should do everyone a favor and stop writing comics!

That was it? Call Seinfeld, we finally got a comic about nothing. It took a year and a half to complete. And damned if I can say what it was about. Maybe I am too stupid, but Catwoman kills the Joker in the future? So what?

Andrea raised a kid the Joker stole? What was that even about? The art was nice, but King relied on all his tricks - using public domain writing to carry his load, depending on art to fill the space without actually having said art move at a fast pace to make for an exciting story.

This whole series was a waste of time and money.

Or I could be wrong. more

UHG!!! Who let's this idiot write Batman???

Such painfully pretentious melodramatic garbage!!

Art-wise- Flat, underdeveloped, rushed. But why bother wasting time fine-tuning art for a story this bad.

This is NOT Batman or Catwoman! I absolute hate the dialogue that King writes for these two. I'm not even sure who these imposters are, but i don't like them.

Keep Tom King AWAY from Batman!! more

If I’m being honest, the score of 4 isn’t deserved for this issue, but it reflects my feelings on the entire series. Such a pointless and worthless series. I kept going even after I could see it was not good because I had gotten that far, but wow. When King is on, it’s good. When he seems like he is too proud of himself, it is this.

I wish there was an option to give it a Zero because this is absolute shit. Tom King doesn't know how to write Batman or Catwoman, DC seriously needs to stop giving him Batman book. the timelines and characters are complete shit in this. He literally has no regards for anyone of the bat family. I said before for him bat family is just Bat, Cat and Helena and you can see here he doesn't even bring other family for the wedding just brings Clark and Louis. Seriously could fuck up a batman book more than this. Finally this shit show is over, if there is anyone who ruined Bat-Cat then it is Tom King. more

The art was nice but it is covered by the unnecessary text. it feels like the writer had no trust in the artist and kept what ever emotion that supposed to be shown in text form also. "Show don't tell" is something that also applies to comics and here it is not followed at all, there are too many pages where art does a really good job of portraying emotions but it is covered by the text stating the shown emotions. this makes it worse because we don't need to be told if we are shown.

other than that the writing is also kinda dull as its the first Dark Crisis Tie in but it has nothing special. I have said it before the first issue is really important because it tells the readers who, what, when, where, HOW the book is going to be. a bad first issue would effect people to spend money on the next issue of a book whose previous was terrible.

Art is nice but it still has some issue, I don't know if it is a new artist and if the things they did in the book are mistakes or done or purpose. From the expressions (That scrunched up pout is very off-putting) to the floating bodies to the odd composition they just don’t work. The panels are very busy without anything to focus on. It leaves your eyes darting around the page looking for a resting spot. Unfortunately there is an awkward cardboard cutout feel to every element of the page and the way all the elements are piled looks like a poor photoshop composite. These are the exception to the rule though. Overall, her work here is pretty more

The writing wasn't bad but the story was completely useless, like this cannot be recommended to anyone because its a last issue before the writer changes and it is a one shot about another character going to similar situation as Batman him tell her hay killing isn't the answer. like they just got Batman & Robin together but I guess they could not even spend one issue of them together before separating them again to go on a collision course with each other again in "Batman vs Robin" in September. this was going to come before robin 15 still they kept the story after robin 15 spoiling that batman and robin again go their separate ways. more

Not bad but Not great either, DC really wants to push Dick & Jon duo but its really bad. They didn't work well together especially that Jon already has a best friend who is batman's son and has a better chemistry with him but oh well. Other storylines were also unnecessary as they did little to justify them being there, like other than other knowing about what is happening to the next in line of the justice league characters the other stories are not great. Basically all them contribute to reach probably a 6/10 for this issue. you could skip it and will be perfectly fine. more

It was great as Damian as a vampire hunter was a great concept and how the issue ended was also interesting as Dick wants both humans and vampires to coexist. the problems occur between Dick & Damian. This two are the closest robins but their bond is never used. Damian stating he would never look up to Dick feels like written by a writer who has not read a single Dick & and Damian comic, also Dick stating Bruce would kill him feels wrong, Damian is right Bruce wouldn't kill dick after finding out he is a vampire. this dude doesn't kill joker man... Batman is too weak (it's a joke) to kill his first robin. more

A real shit show, why did we merge beast boy and cyborg if only to have them separate couple issues later. it like they knew the idea was shit but they were like we like it so we do it but not for long. it's supposed to end the school but it doesn't even do that properly as there other storylines they had to wrap, which has the problem of the book since beginning it had ideas but didn't know how to execute it. and there are some references to some relationships which literally has no need or chemistry (and isn't he with the other person💁🏻). Good that this book is over. more
