This book as a whole was just not my thing at all though, and I appreciate my roommate for letting me read all of the singles he bought. The only single issue of Batman I have sought out and purchased was a one-shot by Jock from a handful of years back.

To boot, it ties some of the major dangling threads together, which results in a satisfying resolution at the very end in terms of character arcs and themes. There’s no reason given for why they want to do this but I’m going to be charitable to Jock and suggest that he meant to imply that Vasquez was offering a substantial bounty for them killing EMP - because this simple explanation is never once mentioned in the dismal script.When a simple GCPD escort goes sideways, Batman finds himself on the wrong end of Gotham City in the middle of a heat wave with a super-villain in tow. It’s such bad writing: the gangs are simply generic bad guys with seemingly no motivation while the main bad guy has a generic motivation and the ending is so cheesy, with the villain monologuing their entire diabolical plan only for Batman to reveal he was recording it all for the cops the entire time. One of the most iconic Batman artists of the 21st century, the incomparable Jock (THE BATMAN WHO LAUGHS, BATMAN: THE BLACK MIRROR), has focused all his storytelling powers on the tale of one very, very dark night in Gotham City.

Jock has been one of my favorite artists since hitting the scene and finally gets to be showcased in an oversized DC Black Label series.comic) Batman and Robin (comic) Batman and Robin Eternal (comic) Batman/Superman (comic) Batman v Superman (General Mills) Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (comic) Batman: Arkham Unhinged Batwing (comic) Catwoman (comic) Detective Comics (comic) Earth 2 (comic) Earth 2: Society (comic) Gotham Academy (comic) Gotham Academy: Second Semester (comic) Gotham by Midnight (comic) Grayson (comic) Harley Quinn (comic) Injustice: Gods Among Us (comic) Injustice: Gods Among Us: Ground Zero (comic) Justice League (comic) Justice League/Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (comic) Justice League of America (Rebirth) Mother Panic (comic) New Suicide Squad (comic) Nightwing (comic) Poison Ivy: Cycle of Life and Death (comic) Red Hood/Arsenal (comic) Red Hood and the Outlaws (comic) Robin: Son of Batman (comic) Teen Titans Go! Its angle was the gentrification accelerated by Bruce Wayne's "urban development," and I thought it did a pretty good job while also looking stunning. in time to save him, than seeing Batman get beaten into the ground, only to get back up and hit back twice as hard. Jock has also produced key art and concept design for films including Dredd , Annihilation , Star Wars: The Last Jedi , and the Oscar-winning Ex Machina . from a temporary holding cell on one side of the city to his permanent home at Blackgate Prison on the other side.
