    I have to say I love what Paul Dini has been doing with his run of the Detective Comics lately, and this one was pretty good. I read it twice, which for me is unusual. I love Zatanna in this, she's fresh and well written and she's got a thing for Bats but then again, what girl doesn't? I really liked reading her in this issue.

    What is up with the new ventriloquist??? I am on the edge of my seat and can't wait for the next issue...

    SPOILER ALERT

    The last scene is awesome, what will happen to our hero??? I can't wait.

    Looks like Scarface has a new dummy! And this one isn't a single issue story! All right!

    It starts off with a fire at a new club that was going to open. After stopping it, Batman suspects fowl play from the Penguin. (Yeah, I said that.) But he denies it. Thanks to Batman's interference, the club still has a grand opening, and hires Zatanna for the opening show. (There's Dini for ya!)

    Since the original plan failed, Scarface decides to take the direct approach to the club owner. But he doesn't want him dead too soon... He takes Bruce Wayne as a hostage.

    Two parter!
