Batman: Detective Comics, Vol. 2: Arkham Knight
by Peter J. Tomasi
While not as strong as volume 1 I'm still enjoying my time with Tomasi's Batman run.
So the Arkham Knight from the video games was just the Red Hood. Here, they are a completely new character. They are hunting down Batman and trying to convince him the errors of his way. So Batman and Robin team up for some old time kickass adventure.
The negative is the story of the Arkham Knight is far fetched and the idea of aging is thrown completely out of the window. As if Harley Quinn is somehow 20 something at one point and now over 40? No way. So that part annoyed me as well as the annual just being okay. But I love Tomasi's Bruce, and his relationship and Damien is perfect. I also dug the fights, fun and over the top. Oh and Batman ACTUALLY being a Detective is always nice.
This was so damn fun Detective comics. Sure, it's not mind-blowing or as good as his Batman and Robin run but I'm enjoying it. A 3.5 out of 5.
