I must say that I think the whole story seems to be rushed some and doesn't seem to flow very well. I think the art is very good. I have read other books Jeph Loeb has written and this is not his best work. That being said I don't think it is bad it is just not as good as I think it could be. It should get better, I should think, as we get closer to the end of the story.

AFAICS, all Two-Face knows is that Superman is really attached to the crew at the Planet, Lois more than the rest.

Which, all things considered, is really a "duh" sort of statement about Superman. [Selina's not the first to kidnap one of them to use against the Kryptonian.]

I don't recall names or relationships ever being mentioned.

Yes, this run almost seems to be a "Best of Batman" rather than a solid storyline, but I'm liking it a lot anyway.

Long Halloween is funny, because it gives you a character batman didn't beat at the time: gilda dent.

That's why I say that I liked the Long Halloween!
Batman thought he solved the case when he didn't!

Yes! Batman is at his best when he is flawed. He's sort of like a tragic hero who never falls.

True, he never falls. Unless of course to talk about the time Bane pitched him off a roof, bouncing all the way down off of awnings, billboards, and other buildings.

OUCH!


PEACE!!!!

I haven't really been able to determine what the actual story is. It seems more like a series of Bat-Villain encounters with some shadowy figure (possibly two face) lurking in the background. The illustrations are excellent though. I was actually enjoying the "Dead Reckoning" storyline in Detective more than this, though the ending seemed a bit off.

Dead Reckoning has been a much better story, but I agree the end didn't seem to flow very well. It could have used another issue to finish it out in. Otherwise it has been a better read than Hush has been.
