Batman: Detective Comics, Vol. 4: Deus Ex Machina by James Tynion IV

4.0

Confession time: Before picking up this series, I'd never really read anything with Azrael before. I was vaguely aware of him from the Arkham games and that was about it, so this series has definitely been a crash course in the character. So far, and especially in this volume, I'm finding him fairly fascinating. While my background in religion isn't nearly as apocalyptic or violent AI-driven vigilante-filled as Jean-Paul's, I can relate to emerging from a fundamentalist religious background and having to figure out how to live outside of that. Also, this volume has Zatanna and Zatanna is really cool.
