DC mega events can often be hit and miss. We go from the spectacular such as Knightfall to the mundane I.e. Hush and just because there’s hype around a book doesn’t mean that it will always deliver.

Gotham has been destroyed by plague, Earthquakes and Mother Nature really seems to have it out for the city. I criticised the last volume for being too by the numbers. The plot suffered heavily in my opinion due to its reliance on repeating several beats from the far superior ‘Batman: Cataclysm.’ However, as mentioned earlier there is always the potential for a book to make good on it’s promises.

That’s why I’m drawing a line in the sand on the disappointing Volume 1 and going into Volume 2 with open eyes.

Will this book right the wrongs of the last arc or is it doomed to make this road one of the worst I’ve traveled on so far in my Batman Canon Read through?
