review of batman the court of owls

BATMAN THE COURT OF OWLS.This is volume 1 of A Scott Snyder's batman which is a very important story arc in the new 52 because well,batman is a very important character in the DC universe.At the start of the story batman is trying to control chaos in Arkham,this teases some familiar foes including the riddler,killer croc,mister freeze and two face (just to name a few)after,batman is now inspecting a crime scene where a man named John Doe is used as a human dartboard.Evidence state that the killer is somehow linked to the old rhyme the court of owls which warns bruce of well the court of owls.I cant give away too much about this comic but this is an example of what Snyder can do with the caped crusader.The artwork was done by Greg Capullo which he has done an exceptional job with this comic.For a good story and an awesome artwork i'd say this is a must read!FIVE STARS!
