Not a fan of the art style, though I can’t deny its flair. What irks me most is Batman’s portrayal, which is completely foreign to virtually any other portrait I’ve seen of him. The story, such as it is, is more a showcase for ideas than it is a story. It’s compelling at times, but ultimately falls a bit flat for me.

I'm honestly disappointed. I believe there's a very good story here and the art definitely fits the psychosis. My problem was that it was just too hard to read. Because of the odd script and various ways of writing dialogue, I wasn't able to enjoy it because I was having to try so hard to decipher it.

A very creepy read. I may have to read it again sometime just to fully wrap my head around it. I really love the art styles, which must have taken a lot of work and efford.

Honestly a masterpiece. Each of the paintings are extraordinarily well-crafted and genuinely disturbing.
