Batman: The Cult by Bernie Wrightson, Jim Starlin, Bill Wray
dark
fast-paced
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
3.75
very odd and interesting concept; batman gets taken and brainwashed by a cult. this comic explores such themes as religion, politics, and morals.
batman is at his lowest points here and at one point even decides not to come back to gotham and fight the cult, which i find not much of his character at all since he only regrets this because of a dream he had of his parents. he also doesn’t do much for the homeless which is the root of the problem in some way, otherwise well written and executed! love jason’s robin in this.
i also found out i would be somewhat easy to brainwash, which is a weird discovery.
