Anyone check this out? I managed to get a copy in my box, and it was very pretty art, but the story felt extremely paint by numbers. Really underserved by the writing.

I dug it. Was totally stoked to see a Brubaker/Philips back up story, but then was saddened to find out it lead into a digital series you have to pay for. Loved the art for both stories.

Haha, it's not even a leadin - it's the first few pages from a story from over 10 years ago. Still nice to see this kind of thing get a highlight! And I agree - the are was absolutely the highlight. Very rich in shadow, as a good noir and Batman story should be. Makes me wonder if Delandro will get a main universe Batman gig sometime!

My store didn't get any copies (or at least any extra copies), so I eventually had to find a copy to read on-line. Story was . . . not spectacular, but then again, it also was promoting the TCM series of films under the Noir Alley label, so I guess it did that okay.
As for the other part, the preview from
I recently bought that as a back-issue last month and liked that story better.
