A review by cjordahl
Batman: Snow by Dan Curtis Johnson, Seth Fisher, J.H. Williams III

3.0

I didn't like this one, but I sort of enjoyed it, if that makes any sense. The story maintained my interest even if it wasn't very deep or complex. I liked looking at the art. Skillfully done, lots of well-drawn details. BUT... there were a lot of "buts"... it is uncharacteristically bright for a Batman book, almost cartoonish. Bruce looks very old for being only a year-and-a-half into his life as The Batman. And it's just too cute for what I want a Batman book to be. There are silly touches throughout: mascot bats that appear in unexpected places, a woman who wears any number of odd hats throughout the book, ducks and other critters drawn in unlikely places. Fun to look at, but it didn't jibe with the straight script, and it didn't feel like a Batman book to me.
