War Games
Sucked,this storyline destroyed the whole concept of Bat crossovers(Resurrection of Ra's was editorially mandated so it does'nt count).Very OOC and accomplished nothing in the long run.But i guess if Loeb's crap could make it then so can that.
Prior to War games we had Fugitive/Murderer,NML,Contagion/Legacy,Knightfall.After that we've had nothing(RIP was'nt a crossover either).
how did it destroy the concept of Bat crossovers....you're the first person I've heard say anything negative about it...one of the reasons I liked it was because I liked Batman's portrayal in it...I like Batman more when he's portrayed as a d!ck...like when he has everything planned down to the last letter and no one can tell him different and he feels that he doesn't need anyone's help to accomplish the plan
Black Mask was made this new Joker level villain which did'nt even last a year.Batman's relationship with the city/GCPD was destroyed only for him to regain it,Steph's death was retconned,it ruined Batman's relationship with Leslie only for writers to ignore it.
Basically everything that happened there bears no relevance to Batman despite the fact that it was a huge ass crossover with the rise of a new villain with supposedly earth shattering consequences none of which lasted even a year.Meh.
Then there's Batman's plan which did'nt make sense to me,how did Steph trigger the war and ofcourse the gruesome,unneccessary torture.
But heh that was the tradition of batbooks back then,Hush and Black Mask typical one trick ponies wearing cool head gear,trench coats,acting badass.blah blah.
