BatWatch Reviews: @DCComics Batman and Two-Face #24


Here are today's Guest Reviews by Jeremy Sims from Batwatch for DC's; Batman and Two-Face #24. I have also added my rating after each review. If you have any questions about my rating or want to discuss anything just leave me a comment.
See the Review Rating Overview page for more information on how I rate each comic.

Batman and Robin #24 - The Big Burn: First Strike

“The Big Burn” part one of five! Two-Face’s first epic in The New 52 sees Batman unraveling the mysterious connections between Harvey Dent’s life and the origin of Carrie Kelley!

Preview



Two-Face


I'm a big Two-Face fan. I love what Tomasi did with him during Villains Month, so this is going to be a great issue, right?

How foolish I can be sometimes to think such things.

I tried to enjoy this issue, but I just didn't. It's a slow, overly wordy yarn which slowly takes us nowhere. Other than telling the New 52 version of Two-Face's origin, this entire issue could be skipped without losing much vital information. A group of gangs are bonding together to push out the crazies, this girl who scarred Harvey is leading them and Batman's on the case. Except for the scarring of Harvey, you could give that information in maybe one more page? I can think of almost nothing in these other pages of any entertainment value except for the art which is, as usual, brilliant. However, I can't recommend an issue just based off art.

I'd suggest waiting for the next issue before jumping on to this arc.
