I didn't really understand Talia's motivation for most of what she did. She's kinda flipped her lid. I also have never really cared for Damien, and it makes it hard to be overly sad about his death.

4.5 stars. I enjoyed this one a lot more than the previous volume. It had a lot more of the bat gang and less of the Batman Inc characters. I loved how Alfred treated Damian, and how Bruce showed his love for his son. I actually got emotional at one part of the story, which is rare in a Batman story (since he's always so broody and emotionless). Talia Al-Ghul was fleshed out a lot more in this one too, she actually felt like the villain of the story. Overall a worthwhile read, even though it took a minute for the story to really take off.

More like a 3.5, I really enjoyed the arc but the extras at the end I found less interesting. Except the Bat Cow because.... Bat Cow

Don't usually like the Grant Morrison comics I've read. Not as grounded as most and I feel like they're hard to follow.
This one was really good though.
Even though I knew it would happen (and I knew he would be back anyway), Damian's death was still emotional and both of the big fights against Heretic were great.
