Batman: Hush by Jeph Loeb
4.0
With so much stuff from the Bat-family on the market, sometimes it's hard to choose what to read. Specially if time (and money) are short. Well, here is some advice: read this one.
First of all, I've been reading comics with Jim Lee's pencils for a long time, but I was really impressed with his work on Hush. If you don't read it and just go through the art, the book is already worth your money. The colorist (Alex Sinclair) did a great job as well, keeping the (kinda) dark ambiance, yet displaying vivid colors on every page.
As for Jeph Loeb's argument, I was already a fan of his writing, and Hush didn't let me down. It's consistent how he wrapped so many old characters together and still brought new stuff to Batman's mythology. And maybe the most important: you are compelled to turn every page until the last one, to figure what the hell is going on.
Sincerely, it's not a Dark Knight from Frank Miller, but It's one of the Bat-Stories that worth you time.
