praedestinatio 's review for:

Batman: The Ultimate Evil by Andrew Vachss

---

So I didn't actually finish this book, but marking it as read for my records. I think using Batman as a platform to bring more awareness to this subject is a great idea, and I think as a Batman story it could really work... However this author paints Batman as completely naive and shocked about the whole thing. I couldn't get past the characterization nor the writing style, he frequently uses the same sentence structures over and over, and everything is "The Batman xxxx." No variety.
