This was an ok read.
This follows Harvey Dent as he is trying to stop Two Face from doing what he plans. Dent goes to Batman to help stop Two Face but Two Face does not stop and takes over Dent. Batman has to figure out a way to help stop Two Face and the cult that he created before more death happens.
It was a fun story. I liked seeing where things were going to go. It was interesting to find out that the Joker and a few others were helping Two Face in all that was going on.
The characters were great and I liked seeing all that was going to happen.
Overall it was an ok read.

tabman678's review against another edition
Solid volume with plenty of extras aside from the main Joker War lead up.
Tomasi writes the classic Batman you expect perfectly, reading his Batman is akin to putting on a favorite coat that never goes out of style.
As well as a platter of talented artists and inkers that make this a solid volume of Detective comics. A good Two face story that plays with all sorts of elements from the New 52 era, two tie in Joker stories that are a blast and self contained, a tribute to Alfred that's as good as it can be without a proper Dick Grayson, a really solid annual tale, and a charming one shot showing just how good the rogues gallery is.
For anyone looking for Batman comfort food among the constant main title shakeups this is it.
