Batman #15 by Mitch Gerads, Tom King, Stephanie Hans
3.0
So everybody likes Tom King and everyone likes this story arc... NOT.ME
Batman #15 - 3 out of 5 stars
Batman - "Streets and Swamp" story arc - 2.5 out of 5 stars
What I Liked
The little absurd mystery behind Selina being a mass murderer killing 237 people was cleared and Selina went back to her usual anti-hero-mostly-thief status . There was nice exploration of the twisted and troublesome relationship between Bruce and Selina and why they can't be together . Also a good set up for a future story arc .
What I didn't Like
The art is just painful to watch at , I mean , whatever happened to the artist who did the I am Suicide story arc , they had done well ... this is not by any definition decent at all. Meanwhile the story narration was a bit confusing , I also found it silly that the greatest detective was so easily deceived by Selina's friend and the fact that Bats never really figured it out himself as to who actually framed Selina.
Overall
Simply not convinced by this story arc and it may lead to a story arc that I may end up enjoying but So far Tom King isn't a writer that I can have faith on blindfolded and while the people of goodreads may have dubbed this story arc highly , I as a Batman fan and a DC fan do not like this
