BONUS REVIEW by GARY OWENS
I’ve seen lots of Batman battles against powerful supervillians where he receives nary a scratch, but if his origin has taught us anything, it’s that the more common criminals can be the most dangerous. Batman fights such a “common” foe, and gets taken out of action. So what state is he left in, and what happens to his beloved Gotham in the meantime? Sholly Fisch answers this question with a fun story featuring some odd guest stars, and artist Robert Pope gives us some 50’s-style art to help us reminisce about the old days. Sure, multi-issue/multi-title stories are the rage, but give me a one-shot family comic anytime to give me my comic fix. This one hits the spot.
