vimcenzo 's review for:
Batman '89
by Sam Hamm
Absolutely atrocious. This would be one star if the art weren’t so unforgivably good. The worst part of the political angle is that it was plausible until Robin was a zoomer from the 2020s who absolutely does not fit into the Civil Rights motif that Harvey and the rest of Burnside represent. The politics of the current age, while they are descendent from the past, do not get to anachronistically go back to try representing the zeitgeist of “89”, much less the anachronistic universe that the Burton movies created. The worst part is that a story about Harvey Dent and inequality is baked into his character concept perfectly, and they still fucked it up—managing only to get his design and his insanity sequences (and the art overall, I cannot stress that enough) right.
