The art is amazing! AMAZING! AND there's a literal squid in this, plus Harvey Bullock's soft, cat-owning sides comes out a little. It is nice getting the Bullock-Batman dynamic a bit as we are so used to the Gordon-Batman one. I also like the overarching Batman-as-dad theme throughout. There's still a lot of grief from Damian, which is brought up throughout, but there are also just parts about parenting and kids and family. Batman's reaction to those things is more emotional because of what recently happened.
However, Batman fights drugs and gangs is tired and although the drug of choice is much more comic-booky than say, meth, it's still just Batman fights drugs and gangs.
