Gotham Is and The List were such beautiful issues
An entire volume amounted to Snyder and co. signing off. There wasn't much else to say here apart from, "hope you enjoyed it!"
Ultimately, the run was simply incredible. There are missteps, sure. But they are few and miniscule at that.
As an entire run, it was ridiculously good. Easily the best of The New 52. (even if that's not exactly saying something).

The first two side issues were pretty underwhelming, but the final actual issues (51, 52) were wonderful. Fantastic send-off to one of my favorite Batman creative teams
If I had been reviewing Issue 51 of Batman (2011) it would've been ★★★★★.
Given DC is money hungry though, I'm having to type this review out differently. Issue #51 is Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo's final issue together. It should have been included in volume 9 but...here we are. The issue itself is beautiful in both it's writing and artwork. A final goodbye tour of Snyder and Capullo's world. The short visit to the Court of Owl's made me really emotional, that story arc means a lot to me.
The rest of the issues contained here are vaguely related. In truth they're all just loose-ends DC didn't know where to reprint. One of which, "Madhouse" by James Tynion IV, really upset me. Completely ruins the small-scale personal story of Bruce Wayne in Superheavy and Bloom. I'm just going to pretend this issue never happened because hell is it bad.

This is the end of Snyder's and Capullo's Batman run, and its mehhhhh, one of the issues is a story before Bruce returns as Batman, and the other one is the very last issue, it makes you catch some feelings and it's maybe the best of the Volume.
