Batman: Death and the Maidens by Greg Rucka

3.0

so i saw this on my GR recommended read and i remembered reading it , i Was not particulary a big fan of this one , as the whole Nyssa broke Talia ANGLE, made a mess of things for a long time (Remember that weird Jason and Talia angle that nobody talks about anymore?) . Besides this felt less about Batman and more about Nyssa . not to forget the countless flaws i mean if Nyssa had a Lazarus pit why couldn't she just save her family members? especially since she was apparently capable of using one pit multiple times. The fact that Nyssa was forgotten in furthur future DC comics makes me feel more satisfied that her character was pretty much a Dead End . Not to forget the Red Herring angle where until the last part you can't guess whether Nyssa was a lover or daughter to Ra's still pisses me off , it's just Weird and CREEPY. Talking of CREEPY i don't even want to talk about the implications given in the conversation of Bruce with his mother .it wasn't thought out well , but oh well not like this is the worst comics or anything
