A lot of big set up and it all pays off.

Bruce in this universe is young, angry, and ready to change Gotham for the better. Growing up in the streets, having friends, having his parents, and a certain thing happens that alters that. But all of the anger in him built up goes on display about half way through this issue when the Batman shows up and wrecks the villains. A bunch of gang members murdering people for no reason. You get some excellent moments of batman wrecking shit, awesome art throughout, good setup for future events, a Alfred I actually really enjoy, and overall a great first issue.

Not sure how I feel about the last two pages but everything else was fantastic.
