    Default Batman Night Cries

    As with Crisis On Infinite Earths, ive missed this one and went back and re-done it for my read through, it still slots in any place I want on the website but obviously I know that it doesn't come after The Cult.

    This is a difficult one for me. The first time I read it I thought it was pretty meh and sold it. I've heard a lot of good things from many about it but the online rankings on good reads and amazon paint it out to be pretty meh too.

    Anyway I've re-read the book and have a slightly different opinion.

    You can see my full thoughts on the link below.

    But to be honest Im more interested in what peoples feelings are towards it, it touches on a lot of dark issues and in my opinion doesn't deliver on them as awell as it could.

    What do you think?

    To be honest, I never knew this was made as a graphic novel. Some time ago, perhaps 15 or 20 years (damn, getting old), I saw a copy of Night Cries at my local library but it was an actual novel. The only part illustrated was the cover. Or at least that is how I remember it.

    I'm going to check out your review and try to track this puppy down. Thank you for the theead!

    Every post I make, it should be assumed by the reader that the following statement is attached: "It's all subjective. What works for me doesn't necessarily work for you, and vice versa, and that's ok. You may have a different opinion on it, but this is mine. That's the wonderful thing about being a comics fan, it's all subjective."

    yeah it is worth picking up to be honest, originally I had the score down as a 7 but its one of those that stays with you for a while after you've read it so I bumped the score up, might even go up another notch in a couple of weeks depending on how I look back on it.

    I've only read it the once and it was definitely "meh" for me.

    honestly I recommend another read, if you can get your hands on it, it's still really moody and gothic

    I love Night Cries. Not something I'll read every week, but it looks fantastic, the characterizations are solid, and it's one of the smarter focuses on James Gordon.
