review 1: The art is damned good, I especially liked the David Finch cover reproductions.As far as the story is concerned... well I'm still left here wondering wether there was an actual story told. The story is so intersperced and told in chunky "chapters", that I was often going back a page or two to see if I had skipped anything... nope, no skipping involved, just big chunks of the story the reader has to sort of "make up" for himself.Very nice art, very sloppy story. That's OK though, it just means I won't have to strain my wallet buying the sequels.
review 2: A grim, mystical Batman story. The artwork is wonderful; Finch gives us one of the best interpretations of The Penguin in years. The storytelling is clear and coherent with smooth dialogue and straightforward
... more plot. Unfortunately the conflict feels small and the urgency in the storytelling is stuck in first gear. Also, Dawn Golden is irrational and annoying.... Just blurt out your whole past to a stranger in one breath, Dawn. I'm sure Batman won't mind.3.5/5 less

Great art, but typical superhero book. And what's up with multiple batmen?

Amazing artwork but the story is all over the place.

great artwork, I didn't like the story though.
Amy
Definitely a more demonic spin on Batman.
