Lucius Fox is keeping some secrets even from Bruce Wayne.
GCPD Commisioner Loeb is fully focused orchestrating a massive manhunt down on The Batman. The citizens are suffering not only due the power shortage but also of robberies and mugging.
Gotham City is suffering a major blackout with a super-storm coming. I am not reproaching anything (well, his take on The Joker was too soft for my taste and/or expectations due the selected title) since definitely with the long journey of Zero Year showed that he was able to keep up the demanding job of being the writer of Batman.īruce Wayne has become The Batman just few weeks ago but now there are too many things in scenario. I figured that he must had the idea for The Court of the Owls, so he wasn’t nervous about taking the job, and the storyline become very popular, so the responsibility and demanding got bigger and he was out of fresh ideas (totally fresh from the start) so he consulted the lore of the character and he got inspired to do his own versions of the mentioned storylines. Bam! Crash! Kapow! He was appointed as the new writer of Batman in DC Comics that since is its most best-selling character is certainly a HUGE responsibility and demanding. My feeling (and it’s that, a feeling, not like I read about it somewhere) is that it’s most likely that Scott Snyder did his superb jobo n The Black Mirror and.
Death in the Family is based on The Man Who Laughs where it’s even mentioned those events the first part of Zero Year known as Secret City is based on Year: One and now this second part known as Dark City is based on No Man’s Land.ĭon’t take me wrong, I am not saying that he copied the stories, no, his own takes on the stories have a solid original contribution, BUT I can’t avoid to think that he got a strong inspiration from those previous published storylines. Of course, I can’t be blind that besides his solid start with the introduction of The Court of the Owls (as new villains to the Batman’s rogue gallery), the rest of his take on the run has been variations of previous concepts developed by other people. I honestly think that this is Scott Snyder’s strongest storyline (so far, and considering as something “apart” of the first part told in the previous volume) in his tenure of Batman title. This collected edition features #25-27, 29-33 from the comic book “Batman”.įirst of all, if you care to read the explanation of what comic book issues are collected in this edition, you may found odd that issue #28 is missing, but as I already explained in the review of previous volume, you will find that issue #28 in the Volume #6 Graveyard Shift that collects several stand-alone stories published along the run of the title.
