Because I could not get enough Arkham City, I’m reading the digital Arkham Unhinged and so far I have to say that it serveswell to close the gap that seems to exist between the two games ARKHAM ASYLUM and ARKHAM CITY.  The storylines are not precisely strong at times, but if you are just searching to get some questions answered regarding why the things are the way they are in ARKAHAM CITY and are willing to let go of the details, the series is quite fun.  And it was time Joker showed up in the series, even if it is in the means of a flashback.

Here’s the premise:  In issue #7 Penguin has lost a shipment of wine thanks to the Joker and the Batman, but one crate is saved.  When brought back, Penguin orders the crate to be destroy but one of his goons takes one of the bottles and drinks from it, revealing it was laced with a strong acid.  Issue #8 is about Penguin telling the story of how things were before ARKHAM CITY when he and Joker were friends.  The story starts on the day  Penguin opened the ICEBERG LOUNGE and how Joker humiliated him that day.  Here are some pics of the issue in question:

I would give this series 3.5/5 smiles
