review 1: This is not a perfect graphic novel; there are only certain chapters that I enjoyed. But since Goodreads' rating system is enjoyment-based and it always a joy to get new work from Walter Simonson, this gets an easy five stars from me.I have to hand it to Simonson; he certainly did not just handed this one but made it into a challenge for his skills. The future chapter, he adopts a mangaesque art style and it shows this guy isn't willing to rest on his laurels.
review 2: An interesting set of stories from Walt Simonson. Lots of great art throughout with some characters that haven't seen the light of day in many years. John Workman does the lettering and there is great art there as well. His lettering is often a special feature in working with Walt Simonson.
... moreStrangely enough the Batman story is presented more like a set of black and white Sunday comic strips than conventional comics artwork. It is quite a surprising change from the rest of the book, though each story is in a different style anyway. less

Not bad. Some parts were great. I could read Simonson on Bat Lash forever.

By the numbers, rather underwhelming, never going to be anyone's favourite.

Walt Simonson's art is wonderful, but the stories are a bit lackluster.

The premise was interesting but overall the stories were hit and miss.
Lebong
A neat conceit executed well.
