A review by cthuwu
Batman/The Shadow: The Murder Geniuses by Steve Orlando, Scott Snyder
4.0
i don't know what to think about this one. i'm not going to review it like i normally review books because i honestly don't even know how i'd do that.
the art? good.
the writing? great?
the weird plot twist where the shadow was given his powers by what looks like... cthulhu? uh.... what?
now, the majority of shadow related media that i consume is the radio show with just a dite of the 80s/90s era comics so this is uh kinda just out there for me. even the newer comics i've read didn't involve shads being an interdimensional being sent by the great old ones to maintain truth and justice on earth.
this plot point was a lot for me and even the artists drawing the joker like the fuckboy reject that he is didn't make up for it so it's a solid 4/5 for me.
