Batman Vol. 11: The Fall and the Fallen
by Tom King
Ah damn this probably weakest volume in the entire run.
So Batman after his Knightmares is not having a good time. It actually opens interesting enough with Batman breaking out of Arkham. In doing so he slaps around some of his good old villains. The next few volumes is his complete breakdown, jumping around in time, and spending a little time with his pops. It all comes down to breaking him down before he goes pretty much insane.
I think the idea is good. I see what King is doing. I enjoyed the first issue here a lot of him breaking out of Arkham. The rest? Kind of boring and all over the place. The big plan by Bane was obvious, the loss of his Batfamily is weird, and the ending is kind of meh. The secret file is also a waste of time, don't bother reading it.
I usually enjoy King's work A LOT. Most of his Batman volumes are some of my favorite ever. This? This is pretty darn weak. A 2.5 out of 5.
