jmanchester0 's review for:

Batman: Europa by Brian Azzarello

5.0

Wow - it's interesting to see all the people who give this 5 stars and feel like they need to apologize for it! "I know not everyone will like this, but I did."

I don‰ЫЄt think I‰ЫЄm going to apologize. I was in love with this comic by the time I‰ЫЄd finished with chapter 1!

I like the writing. Good interaction between Batman and Joker is excellent when it's done well.

And the art! Sick! I loved the style of Killer Croc.

But some of the panels are hard to parse. Especially when the fever really hits. I get that it's supposed to be like that. But if I‰ЫЄve got to at least be able to see what‰ЫЄs going on.

But even with that, I really enjoyed this Batman comic. I love it when a Batman comic comes together, and this one really does.

Like all trades, this shows the alternate covers in the back of the book. But, different than most trades, the art is so amazing in this book, that none none of the alternate covers were as good as the art in the book itself.

Read this if you‰ЫЄre a Batman fan. Read this if you‰ЫЄre an art fan. Read this if you‰ЫЄre a comic fan.

Thanks to NetGalley and DC Comics for a copy in return for an honest review.
