Batman: The Imposter by Mattson Tomlin

4.0

Really enjoyed this one. A fresh take, helped by the fact that Batman is surrounded by characters with no history. Jim Gordon is off the force. Alfred has forsaken him (or vice versa). No Joker, no Riddler, Penguin functions as nothing more than an informant. It allowed for the story to just be itself: yet another "Is Batman objectively good?" tale. Only this one, using an impostor, does a good job of answering it: there is always a compromise to fighting crime. Also, it gives Bruce a love interest in the only non-Selena storyline I've enjoyed. Capped off with beautiful art and this one is a winner.
