So , I was not a huge fan of the new 52 era , i hated most of the stuff that came out during that time , except Batman . Batman was the one shining light during the atrocious New 52 era , and Scott Snyder and James Tynion IV were the best find during that era and they simply wrote fantastic Bat tales. However I'm so dissappointed with this . The moment I saw Snyder and Tynion i eagerly got my hands on a copy , what i found was a re-hash of multiple iconic bat-tales from the 90s and 80s , all mixed into one tale with new twists . And i dare say i didnt enjoy it one bit . We have already dealt with these storylines and now they are jumbled into one tale with a lot of things to digest but mostly all predictable and honestly dull to comprehend . The art was good in places but not consistent enough the characters acted irrationally and the overall story was filled with plot holes as him some Gotham goon just fired a tommy gun at it .
