Gotham Central, Vol. 3: Unresolved Targets by Ed Brubaker, Stefano Gaudiano, Greg Rucka, Michael Lark
4.0
I quite enjoyed this one, as well. Not as much as the last one because the characters seemed forgettable and interchangable. Renee was only mentioned in this one and I couldn't remember anything specific about the others.
The cases were pretty interesting. The first one revolving around Gotham's least favorite clown. There was a plot that reminded me of an episode of BBC's Luther. I won't spoil it but the Joker was wreaking havoc on Gotham's first responders and it was pretty scary. I really like the way Brubaker and Rucka tell these stories because you're pretty much just along for the ride as they attempt to stop the bad guy. We learn everything the officers learn at the same time so none of the suspense is lost when the audience gets to find out the plan ahead of time.
The second is one of my least favorites, Tetch. Guy seriously creeps me the fuck out. That case reminded me of a Law and Order episode. While I don't like the final reveal, it didn't bug me so much that it took me out of the book. I didn't like this portion as much but it was still pretty good.
I think there's only one volume left and that makes me sad because I'm really enjoying this series.
