With the Victim Syndicate gaining momentum in Gotham what team Bat does Not need is the heretofore thought to be reformed Clayface going on a rampage and attacking its members. Yet that is what happens in this issue. And it ends on a decent cliffhanger.

Tynion has done an admirable job of tightly plotting his run on this title. He wraps up some threads and leaves others dangling and pulls on new threads while calling back on those previously woven into the story. There is a lot of action and some decent dialogue in this issue.

And the art does well framing the action. The art team has drawn a beautiful comic.

Rating: 7/10
