DC Comics
Writer(s): Steve Orlando
Penciller(s): Riley Rossmo
Inker(s): Riley Rossmo
Colourist(s): Ivan Plascencia
Letterer(s): Deron Bennett
Cover Artist(s): Yanick Paquette & Nathan Fairbairn; Variant by Tim Sale & Brennan Wagner
Riley Rossmo’s able work is not done any favors by Ivan Plascencia’s flat colours. Beyond the monochromatic (even for Gotham) appearance of the book, we’ve treated to some crisp pages, with a few muddy panels mixed in. Rossmo captures movement well and the fighting, of which there is much, is fluid.
If you’re already collecting this new series, you may as well continue working towards completing the current storyline. Otherwise, skip this lacklustre issue.
