Batman's war-game fails because Black Mask is able to replace Orpheus, something that could never have happened if Batman had known that Spoiler was intending to enact his purely mental exercise. No time to cry over spilled milk, Black Mask first tries to kill everyone in the amphitheater. When our heroes stop that plan, he takes advantage of the shared animosity for Batman to attack Oracle in the clock-tower, claiming it's the bat-cave.

I read all three volumes of this hulk in one day, which attests to it being a quick read, but mostly to it being a compelling read. I was up until 2:00 AM blowing through the third volume, where the mystery antagonist being outed and becoming visibly active kicks the story up that last notch, especially since he/she is a totally different kind of quirky villain in that darkly understated way. It’s slow to start and has a poor sense of the city really being in chaos since the story is told almost...more
Does no one think to insist that Batman lock up his secret plans? This is the same goofy case that happened with the JLA. Anyway, the final volume ties up loose ends of the narrative, but isn't entirely an ending, just the end of the volume. I will say that I particularly enjoyed the Gotham riots and chaos. These are great in a setting like Gotham.
Good conclusion to a satisfying story arc. I love when the whole Batman gang is together. I like these stories that span multiple titles. It is interesting to see how the art keeps changing. This was a good series.
OMG. That's one doozy of an ending. Let's just say I'm glad I don't live in Gotham City.

Mighty fun.
A solid Batman outing written and illustrated by a plethora of DC staffers and folks brought in especially for this story. Each issue was written, inked, and drawn by a different person, so the variety of art is pretty broad, though the story is so cohesive you'd never know it was different authors doing the leg work. A good weekend's diversion.
