Brilliant.
I'll say more tomorrow, because it's late and I'm likely to ramble more so than I normally do...

Good issue. I like the way Lucius was portrayed and it's obvious to me that Gordon knows that it's a different guy under the Batman cowl. The scene between Dick and Superman was well done too.
I'm enjoying the ongoing dynamic here and in 'Tec. Good stuff.

Noticed the continuity nods to Azrael and the old Catman, and of course--HA!--Bat Mite. The Fox sequence felt very Batman begins. Liked the Superman sequence, too.
And the Ghost was appropriately scary (think he must be a reference to something too, but can't place it) but the prize winner is the Bullock/Black Mask sequence. That is prize-winning material, right there.

Terrific issue that gave Bullock a chance to shine. I really enjoyed the scene's between Dick and Gordon as well. But the fact that everyone is still smarting from the total destruction of Gotham, as well as Bruce's death, is what keeps drawing me in.
Of course, with Cobblepot in a wheelchair, the guy who pummled him sure doesn't seem to be that much of a threat. LOL!
Great stuff. Can't wait for the next issue! And the cover, btw, was excellent!

Good solid development issue here. Dick struggling to put his new world together, and not having an easy time of it because of Bruce's compartmentalization. Lucius and Gordon were great to see interacting with Dick, and Bullock definitely gets some good moments. The copycat dilemma was fun to see, and I like the development on Gray Ghost. That should prove fun, and reminds me a bit of the "Nightshade/Deadly Nightshade" episodes of the Flash TV series (high praise indeed from me, as those were two very solid episodes).
Overall, solid issue marred by some minor grammar problems, but not enough to knock it down to three. This was four very solid stars and well-earned indeed.
Take care
Don

“I wasn’t…sure we’d finished talking yet.” That was awesome. Loved that little exchange. Very Dick, very un-Batman. LOL. Also, I like Bullock and Mask's scenes. Dick talking to Fox was great, and his anger at discovering still more secrets that Bruce kept from him-- and the realization that there are almost certainly even more. Like Don said, there were several spelling/grammar problems, though nothing horrible and it was very readable. Four stars.  |

Same as above, loved the parts with Mask and Bullock. And Dick already makes a different Batman which is great - it would've been so easy to just keep to the same old Bats an just trust the reader remembers its now Dick under the cowl. Kudos for that.
