    This issue is not just Batman and Joker fighting in the sky, there is more plot development.  Another Holiday another murder and now Harvey Dent thinks Bruce Wayne is connected to the murders.  This is a very fun issue that reads smoothly.  There are great splash pages that eat up the page count, this is good and bad.  Good because Tim Sale's art is wonderful for the story, bad because this issue is a quick read.

    This issue would of been a great way to ring in the New Year.  It was a nice read as my first read in 2011.   Reading the long halloween an issue a month has been a fun experiment. I am looking forward to Valentines Day.
     
    Happy New Year, Cheers!
