A review by lindakat
Batman: Detective Comics, Volume 2: Scare Tactics by Gregg Hurwitz, Tony S. Daniel, James Tynion IV
3.0
Read the english Eaglemoss version, being an English speaker as I am but this was the closest edition to mine.
I was a little disappointed in Scare Tactics, it wasn't a bad story in any way shape or form and the illustrations were stunning but it just didn't quite hit the mark.
It started off initially compelling with Batman saving Catwoman (my favourite storyline/duo/whatever they define themselves as) but that was the last you saw of her. This would be fine but the story continued with Scarecrow (terrifying villain that he is) but became disjointed from this point. There didn't feel any complete resolution with any of the story lines that had been incorporated rather it read like a prologue to when Batman does the time travel thing - not my favourite arc.
The Harvey Dent story at the end I could have done without entirely.
Good but not great.
