Okay, so I may be in the minority here, because I loved this issue. I’ll fully confess that I’m biased in having enjoyed it though, as I’m a huge fan of Melanie/Ten and she played a huge role in this one. So obviously that alone made me love this issue.
Batman Beyond #24 wrapped up the Scarecrow plot, but it opened the door for so many others for dear Terry. I honestly don’t know how he’s going to clean it all up. It also got me wondering – how are all those people that were manipulated going to react? Do they remember the damage and destruction they caused? Do they remember nearly killing innocent people around them in an attempt to get to Batman? And if so, how badly could that mess a person up? Does Gotham have good insurance – the type that’ll cover mental health issues? Granted if Arkham Asylum is any indication for the mental health experts in the city, they may just be better off dealing with it on their own…
There were a couple of big moments and revelations during this issue. I’m not ashamed to admit that I squealed so loudly at one point that my husband came over to see what I was freaking out about. So if that gives you any ideas for the roller coaster you’re in for this issue…
