27/100 (2018 Reading Challenge)

A classic & cited by many as one of the greatest comics ever. I had read this one before, but was definitely worth a read again. Even if it is classed as non canon. It’s still a great read, maybe even because of that as it allows the author to do things that would normally not be done. It would be something good to use to try and get someone into comics. Although I am more excited to read Batman stories have not read with this collection, still really enjoyed this a second time. Love the prose and the artwork is distinctive too.

no words. what the hell. i spent the whole journey confused and ended it enraged. indiscernible and incredibly misogynistic story. BATMAN IS ONLY FIFTY FIVE. THATS NOT OLD.

An older, darker Batman story. What the Batman v. Superman movie aspired to be but fell stunningly short. We don't get to know the new Robin very well, but what I see I liked very much, and the fight with Superman felt deserved and natural.
