Issue #3 lands the reader in Argentina with Batman and the Argentinean hero El Gaucho following the trail of three missing children. But it's not a Grant Morrison story if that's the only thing going on. The plot is as dense as a coastal mangrove forest and just as miry. Morrison heaps on the intrigue and continues to allude to a larger picture, some sort of ultimate battle Batman will soon be faced with that is spurning him onward in his quest to establish an international league of Batmen.
Grant Morrison continues to dazzle. It's true that even his worst work is interesting, but this is one his best Batman stories yet.
Rating: 9/10
