Ridiculous fantasy story pretending to be sci-fi, with another cray-cray ending. And "I fell from the moon." Do you remember the days when "sci-fi" was not simply another name for "fantasy," but actually had at least SOME elements of "science" in with the "fiction"? What Zdarsky left out were alien unicorns flying from an asteroid to guide The Batman back to Earth. That is the type of Batman that this Marvel Comics writer is giving us now. Surely Thor the God of Thunder could come to rescue Batman, right?

As to the ending, I knew what to expect. You know there will be some crazy sci-fi/fantasy follow-up. If not, DC Comics should make it the LAST issue of Batman. Oh wait, DC, you want too much $$$$$$$? See, and there is the problem.

If you like it, it is your $5. Spend it however you want. Dark Knight News (DKN) reviewer Max Byrne actually wrote in his review of this issue: "Zdarsky comes up with a method of survival that, whilst being a little far-fetched, is also rooted in physics and mathematical theory" - See? You could your comedy for free! You don't have to pay $5 for it. more

This issue is just silly. And I don’t mean in the fun Scooby Doo way. I mean in the makes no sense in terms of creating a fictional reality where there are rules that define what is possible and not possible.

Batman in space? No problem, his suit can handle re-entry heat and hitting the ground at great speeds. It took me 1 minute to find this info on “How Stuff Works.” “ Meteoroids enter the atmosphere at extremely high speeds -- 7 to 45 miles per second (11 to 72 kilometers per second). They can travel at this rate very easily in the vacuum of space because there's nothing to stop them. Earth's atmosphere, on the other hand, is full of matter, which creates a great deal of friction on a traveling object. This friction generates enough heat (up to 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit, or 1,649 degrees Celsius) to raise the meteoroid's surface to its boiling point, so the meteoroid is vaporized, layer by layer.”

That’s strike one. Urban crime fighter Batman has a suit that can survive re-entry. No, just no. Then he manages to guide his suit to the Fortress of Solitude? To quote Lana Kane from “Archer” Nope.

Then the robot beats Superman again, despite the fact that Bats and Supes had time to prepare? Lame heroes again. The robot then beats Batman and Robin even though Bats adds compassion to its programming. What? Also, Bats is shot and disappears and the robot believes it’s done it’s job and flies off. Bats turns up in an alley somewhere.

Did I miss something? Seriously, did I, because I don’t know what happened. Gabe Hernandez wrote in his review that the writer painted himself in a corner and got out by walking on the paint. You, sir, win the Internet today.

This arc showed that Bats is too dangerous to walk around and that Lex Luther is really lame because Bruce Wayne built the Superman killing robot that Lex Dreams of when his bald head hits the pillow at night. Also shows that Supes and Bats are incredibly lame as well. They have time to develop a plan and still get their heads handed to them. Does DC really hate its heroes?

Not a good issue or a good arc. Or I could be wrong. more

An advantage of not being one of DC's favorite characters in this era where the hypocritical and mediocre trend of progressivism reigns, is that, which the most progressive writers or stories do not give him, even though it is completely boring to take any DC series , at least you don't want to throw it in the WC. By the way I recommend Isom's comic is very good, if it continues with this quality it could compete with the same manga, something that the comic has not achieved in a long time, despite its difficult acquisition outside the USA territory more

It's a decent story, one of DC's few decent ones, but the characters feel so out of it, but that's what's being done now, right? deconstructing the characters just as he uses this deconstructing childhood.

It seemed a bit lazy to kill Jason and I just want to revive him with the resin. I don't understand what the point of doing this was.
MR take the easy way for a rebel Jason, although they can't blame Jason for murder this time.

It wasn't the best starter, the art is decent except for the thing they put on JT's back that looks like someone vomited on it. Canonically Jason does not have scars from when he died and it is stupid and illogical to insist on the subject like the Y of the autopsy. But what can I say, DC is currently full of shoddy fanfiction.
