    Close Encounters


    This issue is the best of the series so far. Of course the others were not that great, but still. Let's start with the writing. Beechin's dialogue is good for the most part, but there are some points where his writing feels out of character, but overall it's good. Benjamin's art is good in some places, bad in others. There are some pages that are really good, like the full 2 page picture on page 2 and 3, and some where it looks just terrible, like pretty much any time there's a close-up of a face. The story actually seems to be going somewhere finally, although it still seems too much like Return of the Joker and uses too many of Bruce's rogues. Overall this is a decent issue that you should pick up if you bought the first two.

You can't help but feel for Terry as he tries to do right and liv...

      Batman Beyond Continues to be Excellent 0

      The Good: It's Batman Beyond, that alone is a good. We get to see our first battle between Hush and Terry. THE WALL is keeping secrets. THE WALL is just as intimidating as ever. Excellent Kingdom Come reference. It ties itself right into Return of The Joker without strangling itself with it. It also further distinguishes itself from it quite nicely. SPOILER ALERT: Our first ever sighting of Future Dick Grayson. : ALERT OVER.Still overall great writing.  The Bad: It's not just Terry, all the McGi...
