Honestly, I like this book to be Bat free and his presence makes me leery of what is to come. I'm continuing to enjoy the characters and the depiction of Gotham, but I hope this will go back to being a comic with a smaller focus.

The issue seems to play around with the idea of informing readers about the characters, but never really gets there. Needless to say though, the art is beautiful. For the rest of my review, please visit OctoGeek at www.imanog.com.

The Black Hood continues to be a phenomenal read which provides all the revenge violence of Rorschach without *all* of the craziness.
