So BATMAN: STREETS OF GOTHAM #14 came out today. Here's the cover. Guess which part I care about?
Don't let the cover fool you. The so-called "Second Feature," which usually takes up eight pages as a back-up to the main story, takes up a full eighteen pages! That's more than half of the issue! The main feature that dominates the cover is only a paltry twelve pages!
Normally, I'd rejoice at the thought of a lot of Harvey and very little Hush, but the sad truth is that the respective stories should have swapped lenghts. The Hush story felt too short, like a preview for a grander story. The Two-Face story, on the other hand...
Well. Since I lack a scanner, time for a brief synopsis!
( Spoilers behind the cut! But really, just buy the issue instead and see for yourself! )
Short spoiler-free review: bland, forgettable start for a crime story with little momentum but nothing offensive. I give it a "meh-plus."
Did anyone else read this? What did you guys think? Is there potential? Any guesses as to where the story could be going? Would you like to read more?
