Now that I think about it, isn't this similar to the Penguin One Bad Day one-shot?
Also King reminding people about Killing Time (so it wasn't just killing time as a series).

Heh after everyone in the first issue being **** pants scared of Penguin, here we have Help showing no fear against him.
Makes sense, he is a professional after all.

Super Alfred knows that he's King's pet OC, just as the FBI agent knew she was a red shirt. Because that's meta, sigh...

Thats not a meta thing, its that Help isn't a regular guy. Originally Posted by The Cool Thatguy

This second issue is really solid. Finally I can reconcile with Tom King after so long!
I have skipped his Killing Time cause I've had enough of his Batman, so this is my first encounter with The Help.
Great characterization of both main characters. There is so much in this issue I think i have to read it twice or more to catch it all.
How could this be written by the same man who wrote Batman? Welcome back Tom!

That's pretty much how his Batman run was, so... Originally Posted by failo.legendkiller

"*sigh* I hoped it was for the miracle."
Dan Watters' Azrael was incredible, a constant delight and perhaps too good for this world (but not the Forth). For the love of St. Dumas, DC, give us more!!!

Difference is that here it's working very nice, I can't say the same for his Batman run. Originally Posted by exile001

I'm guessing they all fell on hard times, huh...

The only question is, do the Force of July get screwed, or super duper screwed? Originally Posted by Frontier
