Good book. Read it quickly and had some fun reading bollywood movie dialogues. Artwork is average is most of the panels and in some it's hard to understand what's going on.

Wanted to read it for long and finally read it but wasn't impressive. Only think that Bat of Gotham and King of Jungle are coming together, only this was interesting but the story was very ordinary and predictable.

This will forever be in my top five comic books. I love the concept of time travel and how it's a tricky business. The Terminator, Robocop and Humans, all play their important role in the story and nobody seems like a forced factor. Ends so well and the fight scenes are quite awesome.

And most of the time it's the ending that bothers me. The way villains were showed, all mighthy, can't be defeated, not dying, killing spiders like flies, eventually they were not portrayed in the same way in their final pages. Superior Spiderman was the only character who caught my attention and rest were okayish as the plot was smooth and went on quickly.

Text Heavy, Decent hand to hand fighting!!! Love it.

Ed Brubaker, I see this name and I don't mind reading it. The same I did with Catwoman, Trail of Catwoman and I loved it. Hence a solid 4.

Story start with Selina and Catwoman are considered dead and in comic books you know how it goes, they are never actually dead. I liked the character of Sam Bradley and his development with the story. Well, one thing leads to another which increases the fun and becomes a good page-turner.

There are many things you can anticipate but the fast paced story makes it fun to read.

I had a hard time connecting with this when I read it last time. I couldn't finish. This time I finished it but again I couldn't connect with the story. One of my favourite superheroes is dying and I did not feel a thing of sadness. On some pages it was even hard to read. Overall I would give it 3 for the good artwork, okayish story and obviously for Superman but reading it again in future... don't see that's happening.

Honestly, the first Vol started with the grip on story and characters then slowly it became not so interesting. By the end I just wanted to finish because I just wanted to and not because I was enjoying. It was not boring but not something you will enjoy from page one to the end. Art is beautiful tough.

Batman thought he knew Gotham but he was over confidence. A reality check for the caped crusader that there are trouble looms inside the city that even the great legend don't know off.

A great quick read. It's fast paced, comes with good characters writing, drawn awesome fight scenes and shows the main character is pushed to his limits.

Will the Owls hunt it's natural prey the Bat? To know, would like to recommend you.
