Gotham Underground #1

inferno45's Gotham Underground #1 - Book One: Kidnappings! review

A Very Good Start to a Promising Mini

Gotham Underground is a very good opening to a story where Batman is undercover as his criminal alter-ego, Matches Malone. So in his absence, Robin, Nightwing, and Alfred must try to cope on their own.

This was a well written issue. The art was great. I love the way Riddler is drawn. He looks fantastic. The shadowing and inking was done well by the very talented Jack Purcell who will hopefully stay on board for the 8 issues left. The only thing that brings this issue down a little is how Bane is handled.

Overall though a fantastic issue.
