This is why I like Detective Comics. It is usually here, we get to see the detective side of Batman. This is a one issue story, that has Batman actually using that "Worlds Greatest Detective" brain of his to catch the bad guy, rather than his fists. The book is helped along by it's humor as he and the Detective Chimp are online for most of it joking about how inept the Riddler is. I did like the online community of mystery solvers, and thought that this was a good use of the characters involved.

Nice one! Alot of stuff happened in this issue, and it never felt rushed!
The cover's awesome, but misleading. Catwoman returning to Gotham was a very minor part of this story. The main story of the Batman universe, sure, it's important. But for this, no, it isn't, even though she had a really great scene where she spoke her mind about Zatanna.
Anyway, a serial killer is on the loose, and Bats is competing with his one time enemy, the Riddler, to solve the case. There' even an interesting scene with a detective chat room, with a cameo of the kinda awesome Detective Chimp. (Super intelligent animals are always cool. I might try to read some of his stories one day.)
It may have been a one issue story, but it didn't feel like one. Anyway, this is the last issue before the great arc, Heart of Hush happens! I might actually start buying floppies once the new Dini/Nyugen series starts!
