Really good one shot! Basically a cop on the job almost dies and goes into training with Batman. But as she gets deeper into it, she joins a fight club, trying to find the killer of her partner when she was a cop. Down we got the rabbit hole of violence till a surprisingly touching and sad ending. A 4 out of 5.

A issue they felt long, but on purpose. Dinah is basically being pushed to her limits, tortured by means of being left alone in a dark little room, a prisoner of her mind, and she relies on Steve in her memories to get her through. It's well done, sad, and you really wanna see this villain get his dues soon. Only thing I found unbelievable is she was in their for months and NO one broke her out, not supes, bats, or anyone. Little out there.

Some really tender moments with Cheetah and the girls trying to fly the invisible plane was cute. However, this issue didn't blow me away. I think I'm ready for Dinah to have some wins and beat the shit out of some baddies.

A simple idea, but it works wonders. This is easily one of my favorite first issues in awhile. Bruce is trying to deal with Jason still being alive, and how he failed, while also focusing on wanting to HURT the Joker...bad. On top of that Jason can't handle nearly dying well cause, he's a kid, and it's just too much for him. These two deal with PDST as you expect people dressed up and fight crime at night, not well, yet makes for a very compelling read.

The Spectre is losing it, and Jim can't control it. Things get insane in the last few pages and result us taking a trip to heaven!

You've seen this story before in other media. Bruce wakes up but he's in a mental asylum, he's never been Batman, it's all been a facade! This story does a decent enough job with that plot we've seen too many times but also I really enjoyed the art, and thought the dialogue itself was pretty damn solid, but the plot lost me by second half and could predict the entire story. Still, not bad!

Be Better storyline is great. I love Batman is really not the main character but more of the myth behind the legend type figure to Teddy, our main character who is just a henchman trying to survive and makes end meet for his family. It's actually well done and had a great ending. The second part is a Tie in To Absolute Power, and while entertaining, isn't vital to the main story of the event.

A nice ending to a mostly great series. Basically Damien figured out what it means to be a Robin but not only that, wants everyone who's lost, hurt, and scared to maybe go down the same path as him but in a better way. Touching and well done. A 4 out of 5.

I dunno why but I always like the dummy being a real OG gangster talking shit. Batman watching Vicki kiss another guy and claiming the never ending war is more important made me laugh. Overall solid.

Another decent issue. Batman feeling things is a nice refresher. I will say the ending made Vicki look dumb. Final part next.
