Knightsend by Various
3.0

Knightfall ends better than it's middle part, but can never live up to the start.

With Bruce back he decides it is time to take down azrael. So he does just that. Springing his plan into action he begins to train to be able to conquer the younger and stronger warrior. But will he have to kill to become stronger is the question? On top of that Bruce has to go on vacation for awhile so Dick takes over as Batman. This is a interesting idea that I guess only last few months and it's not nearly as good as later on when Dick takes over after Bruce "dies".

However, what i did enjoy was how Azrael defeat came and the aftermath. It was simple but more effective than some massive battle. Saying that too Bruce is kind of just weird here, not having confidence in himself at all. If you thought he doubted himself in Tom king's run, he's a super doubter here. Luckily that changes about half way through.

But this whole collection is just decent. Dick finding out who he really is, bruce becoming Batman again, Tim being...well Tim. It all feels very "reset button" type but it's enjoyable none the less. A 3 out of 5.
