Batman returns
2024 Year of The Bat 366 Days of Batman Day 87 Batman Dark Age 2024 1 I wasn t really feeling this one The art isn t my cup of tea and Bruce is absolutely insufferable Also the ending of issue 1 made it pretty clear where the story is going and how it will end Batman Dark Age 2024 1 Another retelling of Batman Not bad by any means but neither the plot nor the prose were interesting enough for me to care about the continuation I didn t enjoy the art much Especially the characters and faces were offputting Batman Dark Age 2024 1 5 Batman Dark Age 2024 1 COULDNT PUT IT DOWN IM A BIG FAN OF DC COMICS AND THE BATMAN BOOKS This one left it off with a nice cliff hanger Batman Dark Age 2024 1 Russell and the Allreds are at it again I absolutely loved their Superman book and this one promises to be of the same caliber It seems like they ve got some rope for this one 6 issues to Superman s 3 so that may be why we didn t get too far in Bruce Wayne s story I really loved how the Superman book went through significant historical eras and moments and there wasn t as much here with that. Batman caped crusader I ll be curious to see how this ties into the Crisis storyline like the Superman book did Batman Dark Age 2024 1 Batman Dark Age 1 isn t your typical Batman origin story that s only a small part of what makes this book so good After working together on the hit Superman Space Age Mark Russell teams back up w artists Mike Laura Allred to deliver a fresh sometimes brutal take on the Dark Knight s beginnings As mentioned the future defining events of Crime Alley unfold differently yet their impact is no less heavy Bruce isn t present for the events isn t immediately thrown into a journey of revenge Instead we meet a Bruce who has become Gotham s resident delinquent son a brooding rich kid w a penchant for trouble paying off the cops to avoid consequences We also get to see a fun new twist on Bruce s first meeting w Selina Kyle which sets up the next issue Russell s narration delivered by an older possibly unreliable Bruce casts a cynical light on Wayne Enterprise the power struggles which occurred until Bruce came of age He is seemingly aware of the evil organization the False Face Society who ran things at Wayne Enterprise in his stead was behind his parent s murder They are hellbent on eliminating the only Wayne heir but Alfred does everything he can to ensure that doesn t happen The older Bruce s recollections of Alfred s impact on his life are some of the best writing in the book Mike Allred s designs are a perfect match for Russell s narrative He utilizes a retro motif the exudes nostalgia w bold lines and it s complemented superbly by Laura Allred s vibrant colors The two create a Gotham that is feels classic yet unsettling The world feels like it s teetering on the brink of chaos a perfect breeding ground for the Russell s script It s a great juxtaposition to the all white pristine future Gotham the two create to show how Thomas Wayne envisioned what the city could have become This was a bold audacious reinvention of the Batman origin story It s a dark suspenseful tale that will leave you eager to see where this alternate history takes us next how this version of Bruce ends up becoming the Caped Crusader Batman Dark Age 2024 1 I was expecting this to be another boring retelling of the Batman story but my gawd I was wrong I really liked this It was different and has me looking forward to the next issue Batman Dark Age 2024 1 A sort of spin off of Russell Allred s Superman Space Age so I m surprised that I was caught a bit by surprise by the approach and the ending of the first issue While it ties into the earlier miniseries it s almost certainly a different adjacent world for one thing this seems to be a younger Bruce Wayne Bruce depicted as a rudderless juvenile delinquent is an interesting change and it s a good set up for a very different approach to the development of Batman I m interested in seeing the rest of this story Batman Dark Age 2024 1
