So do we not get a consistent artist on this book or what?
Don't get me wrong, I much prefer Bagley to Benes, but this is a high profile run on the title, so a consistent artist would help iron out some stuff and help give the book a feel of continuity.
I don't like the big yellow bat symbol on the belt either. Of course, I'm the guy that wants the yellow oval back, so take that with a grain of salt.
The story was fine. I thought the opening sequence was just going to be a sparring match between Dick and someone, not an actual beating.
I do appreciate the difference in style that Dick brings to the fight, showing how he used to be a cop.
The Penguin thing was a little disappointing, but wasn't too bad. I just don't see him being that violent to a lieutenant.
I think Two Face as Dick's main villain is good, as they have a long history but there is a lot of potential stories.
Nothing in this issue blew me away, but it was solid.
