    Default Batman 105

    This was settled pretty quick. Batman has a partner now in Ghost-Maker wonder when we will see his face? Sorry Bao you can't kill your parents murderer? Thoughts on this arc?

    Clumsy conclusion because Tynion just needs to have his pet characters around. I guess I should give him bonus points for coming with an ending that is not your usual big battle?

    ... Nah, it was still extremely abrupt and nonsensical.

    Decent art I guess.

    I had assumed this was another “central figure from Bruce’s past whom we’ve never met but will now be a major villain,” so I appreciate the variation. I’m also a fan of non-******* Batman, so him reaching out his hand instead of telling Ghost Maker to get the hell out of Gotham and never come back was nice.

    I’m fine with it. It could have been much worse.

    'Ghost-Maker' is such a hack name.

    I think I've heard it as a real life codename, so it doesn't seem too far-fetched.

    Maybe he's related to Ghost Fist?

    The name's fine though I prefer it as one word, Ghostmaker, and Tynion did say he wants to make a shonen rival to Batman, not villain.

    It ended like I suspected. Batman was proven right and the Ghost-Maker didn't kill Clownhunter and Clownhunter didn't kill Harley.

    Not being rude, but legit curious: What does this mean? Who do you know who has a real life codename?

    It was a better ending than I thought we'd get(though definitely on the preachier side ) but man, there was no reason for this story to be as long as it was. There was enough plot for maybe three issues here but being stretched out made it so much weaker.

    That would be cool.

    Well I have to admit the ending brought back back memories of the end of the Schumacher films with them running towards the camera, which made me chuckle.

    I thought the ending fell a little flat, but I think Ghost Maker is a cool character. I'd read a series about him being a Punisher-like character in Asia go after corruption.
