4.0
I don't know exactly what I expected, but this was much darker than I thought it would be. And I figured it might be dark. Holy shit, this is kind of fucked up. Bruce Wayne is accused of murder, and as a result, well. Things really get bad.
What got to me most - what probably always will get to me most - was the relationship(s) between Bruce, Alfred and Dick. Bruce and Dick especially.
In the end, Batman is doing his best to lose his connections to his "human" side, and well, I'm curious to see where this is going.
This was painful to read at times, but at the same time I was glued to the pages, so. At this time, I shouldn't be surprised at how dark this gets at times, but this is a little too much. It's surprising how believable it is at the same time, though. He's not out of character, he's just in a direction one doesn't necessarily want to see him go.
This book also did the seemingly impossible: it made me love Dick Grayson even more. Oh boy.
