This is one of the best and biggest Batman series you might come across in your lifetime. Enjoy it, treasure it and buy it now its available. You'll regret it if you don't.

Finally, an event focused on Superman! The story isn’t overly complex, but let’s be honest: Snyder really knows how to build hype, deliver big moments, and hook you from the start without letting go. The tournament concept is simple, even very shonen-like, but super effective. I was a bit lost at first, especially with the Time Trapper, since I hadn’t followed the other DC events and comics, but nothing impossible to catch up with. I just hope it doesn’t end up like Dark Metal did for me: great at first, but kind of lost me toward the end. more

Comic "events" that promise the world and deliver little is the norm nowadays.

This issue is a major set up for the battles yet to come - but it's written in a way that keeps the reader connected. Superman's reluctance is real and it's heart breaking when he finally takes Batman's vision of considering it a game.

And Batman - nice twist there Snyder, I did not see that coming.

Whether or not they land the conclusion is an issue for another day/month, but for now between the gripping writting and the amazing art, this reader is in for all the upcoming rounds. more

leave it to Scott Snyder to write the coolest of comics!

Ah, Gabe Hernandez - ruiner of joy.

What a swerve.

Love this.

This was a more exciting issue compared to the debut with more action. But it also has great characterization for Tim Drake, and I love the chemistry between Tim and Bruce. It seems that DC remembers Dick Grayson as Batman's greatest sidekick, Jason Todd as violent Red Hood, and Damian as Bruce's son. But they dont seem to know what to do with Tim Drake, seeing as he's normal.

But that's what makes him special compared to the most talented gymnast, an edgy punk, and a trained assassin. That's what makes him stands out in a good way. Believe it or not, Tim Drake is the reason why Robin was popular in the general audience, not Dick Grayson. I love his fight in the comic, and the crooked cop. This is just harmless fun simple adventure that we seen before, but it's executed well.

And Jorge Jiminez's art dazzles me. While it's not as flashy as Zdarsky or James Tynion IV, he is just having fun drawing light-hearted Batman. And I'm all here for it. I also do like Matt Fraction's writing and notes on the Bat-tech. It just hits well for me more

Man this rocks! The goat arrived now, let's see how it will go for him and for clark.

Nothing short of majestic.

Best issue since #7, less chatter with the Al Guls and more focus on Kal and his search for connections. Beautiful art as always, and I liked the writing much more this time. Lana Lang's introduction too, I can't wait for this arc to end and focus solely on the core of Absolute Superman.

Having just read the entire Geoff John's GL run, seeing all the twists on it was delightful.

finally things are happening

Fraction is setting the stage. At least, that's how it feels to me. Gotham itself appears to be the lead villain. It's only issue 2, I am giving him the benefit of the doubt. If you read Fraction 's wonderful Hawkeye, you know he does slow burn narratives well. For people abandoning this after 2 issues - social media has broken your attention span.

Solid ending. This is another DC Black Label featuring Batman that I would reccomend to people
