Batman/grendel

[Erick5]

Constructed by Matt Wagner. A staple for what a versus book should look like. Interesting page layouts, good perspective to all the characters. Not to mentioned , I've never seen Batman snuff someone out with his cape before , envelope them similar to that of an actual bat-man (vampire).
Like to hear your thoughts on this book. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

I bought the two-prestige-issue series of Devil's Riddle / Devil's Masque back when they originally came out in the early-to-mid 1990s and liked that, but never bought the 1996 issues of Devil's Bones / Devil's Dance.







By the way, Wagner's series with Grendel and The Shadow was also good.

Wagner never fails to make Grendel look like a complete badass. It was just as interesting seeing Bruce Wayne and Hunter Rose interact as it was to see the Bat and Grendel fight. Wagner knows that these are also two of the smartest and cagiest people people on the planet, so that was a great part of the series.

The second mini was also good, especially seeing Wagner shift artistic gears to fit the more action-oriented nature of the Cyborg Grendel, but it wasn't as interesting simply because Hunter/Bruce are a much more complex and interesting match-up.

I have the four prestige format books, but never read them. Only recently I came across the trade paperback that collects both limited series (Devil's Riddle/Devil's Masque, 1993) and Devil's Bones/Devil's Dance, 1996), so I'm planning to finally read them.

So far I liked everything from Matt Wagner I came across. Batman, Shadow, Trinity and I'm curious about the current Mage at Image. His storytelling feels classic and I dig his art.

Mage is a very old character of his . . .
