Strong issue.
I was worried about this issue and continuity timeline. The cover shows Jason and the Joker yet in Under the Hood it appears the first he knows of the situation. However this issue works around it splendidly – I will say no more on that fact.
The art is superb as usual, some say the relationship between Talia and Jason is unexpected yet the dialog beforehand justifies it. It is a great end into the issue, it doesn’t upset continuity and it doesn’t feel like it has let you down, admittedly it is not all bells and whistles spectacular finale type ending. The twists and conclusions that characters make are brilliant and it sets the way for the future commics (or previous ones depending how you look at it. ) Maybe it is a little rushed towards the end but this issue and this mini-series are defiantly worth a read.
