Reviews - Batman: Detective Comics, Vol. 2: The Victim Syndicate

Having read Tynion's batman first, I respect Tynion's ability to craft a villain. I would have liked to see the victim syndicate fade to the background and remain a looming threat. They were a good concept that was delivered well, but resolved a bit too easily. I enjoy the team dynamics in this more than I usually do. There is a drift into the dramatic here but not overkill. If this series go south I'd imagine it will be romantic drama.

This was a Goodreads giveaway. Batman is a wounded warrior mentoring the children of villains in this edition. Background on Batwoman's origin is featured in this as well.

Probably closer to 4.5/5--really fun, enjoyable read, showing Tynion on his own is a great writer.

I enjoyed this graphic novel.

I enjoyed where this story is going. I liked that this had more things going on and that it connects with the other things happening.

I enjoyed the characters and all that they are doing. It interesting to see how they are handling it all.

I am excited to see what happens next in this series.
