Much more varied and a bit faster-paced and easier to read than earlier books in Morrison’s run. 

This omnibus benefits from being somewhat less focused on Batman himself and more on the surrounding cast, while giving some closure to the diverse group featured within Morrison’s run. 

The art in this volume is amongst the most consistent, featuring fewer artists and a more cohesive style throughout, and it works well. 

Overall, a very satisfying conclusion to a lengthy and complex run.

And thus concludes Grant Morrison’s run on Batman. I ended up mostly enjoying it, for even though I found a lot of it to feel meandering in the moment, I understand that they were really building to something, and the reveals over the course of Batman: Incorporated about how it was all a big conspiracy was pretty satisfying. Good series

Absolutely stellar conclusion to Morrison’s grand Batman epic. A series of fun fast paced adventures akin to the 70s era of comics quickly turns into a dark tragedy about how Batman is ultimately trapped within The Hole in Things. He will Never Die, but man that kinda sucks for him.
