Rucka's Batman reminds me Batman: TAS --- Martinbrough's artwork is perfect for the noir feel of the book.

This is a case for 3.5 stars, but because it's Greg Rucka, I'm rounding it up (yes, I'm biased). I liked the way he portrayed the post-NML Gotham, and I loved the story about Renee, but I wasn't too fond of the whole Ra's al Ghul plot. Still, overall I was surprised to see how much I liked it, and it was a good read.

Upon first reading this I really liked the return to the crime story roots of Batman, but was not feeling the minimal use of color. I don't know if DC is being cheap or trying to be artsy with this. As I previously said I really liked the beginning story, but this quickly headed south. It got kind of boring with the side stories about some of Gotham PD. Weak start to what should have been a great Post NO Man's Land.
