I really don't care for the artwork at all. There's always little variations but from one issue to the next some characters are so different I couldn't tell who they were supposed to be. It just ended with no resolution and fell flat.

2 1/2 Stars so I rounded up!
I have not played the video game on which this comic is based on, perhaps that stunted my enjoyment of the story.
The premise is a bit Escape from New York, the Mayor of Gotham has decided to go all police state, shut down the asylum, and give the inmates a chunk of the city to live in, oh yea and Hugo Strange is put in charge.
Aside from all of that, it doesn't feel like a whole lot happens in this story, and oddly enough most of the action is told to the reader second hand and in past tense, which I find odd.
I was entertained but not enthralled. I also felt like some of the characters were acting out of character, namely the Joker seemed a bit soft.
