Batman is making his way to the end of his Knightmares, but his unseen enemy has a few more tricks up his sleeve. It's time once again to stick a knife into the Caped Crusader's broken heart, letting the groom-that-could-have-been peer in on the bachelorette (or should that be "Catchelorette"?) party that never was. Artist Amanda Conner (Harley Quinn) rejoins the Bat-family for this month's special story-because who else you gonna invite to a shindig like this?

- This issue was fun. It was a quick and breezy read from start to finish. - said one friend to another.
- There is a "but" coming isn't it? - asked the other.
- Well... it is. Sadly.
I'm serious here. This was fun. Very lighthearted and enjoyable, but...
You remember, maybe, those "Prelude to the wedding" one-shots some while back? This issue, the story in it, is perfect for something like that. Some goofy side story that may or may not happened.
Yet it isn't a one-shot. It's a part of the ongoing story or "story" that has been treading in place for months now. So if we judge it like this, then I ask one thing.
WHAT!?!?
IN!?!?
THE!?!?
HELL!?!?
IS!?!?
THIS!?!?
Is this a joke? After the horrible last, Looney Tunes issue we get some Robo-Superman striptease times three? For the love of Barbatos, come on! How this thing got greenlit baffles me.
If the next week's issue won't move the plot forward I might start dropping 1/10's. I have never done that before.
It's a statement of how dire the situation has become.

I have come to realize that Tom King views the comic book medium as a joke. Comic readers? A joke. Batman? A joke. Continuity? A joke. $3.99 per issue twice a month? A joke.
