  1. I picked up the trade for this years ago, when I was first discovering crime noir.  If you like good, pulpy style action and a Shadow-esque take on the Bat, definitely pick this up.

  2. I am so gonna get this if my LCS has a copy (forgot it was coming out so I didn’t pull it).

    That and I can get the DC Presents: Dark Knight, Dark City reprint I’ve stashed in my pullbin too. 

  3. WoW! can’t go wrong with a creative team and concept like that! God i hope i can find a copy this week

  4. This book is full of awesome. You won’t be dissapointed if you are a Noir Burbaker/Phillips fan.

  5. So is the main story in here new or a reprint?  Either way, this looks too cool not to get!

  6. This is a reprint of an excellent Elseworlds tale from the early 2000s I believe (I’m probably wrong on that front).  Either way, it’s majorly excellent, and I reccommend it to all.

  7. loved the idea of this since Conor featured it on a Vault show. so happy it hit as one of these Presents books.

  8. I can’t wait to read this. I’ve been meaning to get thsi for such a long time, but had decided not to overpay (it was out of print). Finally!

  9. Wasn’t this meant to be read horizontally? I wonder if the reprint will be like that.

  10. @davidtobin100 Oh wow, I totally mixed the two up. lol My shop didn’t get this though so maybe another time.

    @AmirCat …..I’ll get back to you on that answer.

  11. So was Batman real or in his mind?

  12. SPOILERS

    @AmirCat  I think Batman in this story was imagined by Gordon. Dent created the rumour of Batman though. If you reread it, it totally works.

  13. @RapidEyeMovement  – yeah it makes sense … I went back and read it and you realize Batman doesn’t do shit throughout the comic. This was such a treat.
