Got my FS books early, FS Batman was honestly unimpressive. DC kind of cut the legs out of the Batman story as who is the new Batman is kind of it’s driving force. Already knowing going in really changes the complexion of the story. The state of Gotham is the most interesting thing about the book sadly. As to the backups. Outsiders is really just a Katana story with Outsider dressing. Which is fine, but nothing particularly stand out. Tries to hook you at the end with something I won’t spoil. The last story is just odd. Feels like it’s there to further flesh out the state of Gotham, but the characters involved lack personality. Stripped away under this English knights theme. It’s like let’s take Gothams villains and have them LARP. It was odd. And not good odd.
Oh, and Harley Quinn. Honestly it was kind of hard to follow. The art structure made it kind of hard to read. With stylized but zoomed in and weirdly placed panels. I appreciate the attempt to look different, but not at the cost of making it hard to understand. From what I did understand though, it was rather meh.
