Coming out this week on print, is another Joker story in the pages of the LEGENDS OF THE DARK KNIGHT #4, and probably the best Joker story of the series so far (I have read the digital version).  Hope you concur with my assessment, now enjoy the preview:

The LEGENDS OF THE DARK KNIGHT digital comics keep surprising fans with the development of interesting and twisted plots.  Though some of the art in the series has not impressed me, the writing on the other hand has been capable of keeping me hooked in the series for twenty issues (when my average is just about ten issues before I call it quits if I don’t like it).  The new story arc starts with issue #19 and involves a violent reaction from Maxie Zeus inspired by a mysterious voice only he seems to see.  As it appears, Maximillian has been part of a new brand of therapy that might have lead to this deadly reaction, and he’s not the only one…

LODK: ISSUE #19

Joker seems to be hearing the very same voices and you would not believe what they seem to tell him to do… I don’t know what to make of it, after all it is quite a serious and permanent turn on the character, but we will have to wait till next week to find out.  I hope this does not become a trend in comics too…

Also in November some (previously only) Digital comics featuring the Clown Prince of Crime go to print. (As if we didn’t already have enough clown….Hey I’m not complaining.  The more, the merrier!)

BATMAN ARKHAM CITY:  ENDGAME

I read the whole story and I give it my two thumbs up.  The art is kind of sloppy and the same time somewhat Sienckiewiczesque…weird combination and a nice try. I think it is a great way to end the story started in the videogames

BATMAN: LEGENDS OF THE DARK KNIGHT #2

This one I also read completely and in my opinion, more could have been done with the story.  It left me asking for a little more development, and improved characterizations, and the art looks in my opinion, really unfinished and  amateurish.
