Not a whole lot happens in this. Jackie Estacado comes to Gotham to try and move in on crime there with his Uncle Frankie. Batman tries to reason with the Darkness that they are both orphans. The Darkness goes back to New York. The book looks pretty though.

A very quick read. There’s not a lot of substance or plot. Although if you’re a fan of either Batman or The Darkness, it’s definitely worth the fun of reading the two gab back and forth.
As for the little dear Darklings, I think Batman will keep his bats. ;)

Çizgiroman dediğin böyle olur arkadaş... Çizimi ayrı güzel, konusu ayrı güzel. Herşeyiyle mükemmel bir çizgiroman. Gotham'da arka arkaya suçlular ölmeye başlayınca Batman olayı araştırıyor ve yolu Darkness ile kesişiyor. Batman evrenindeki neredeyse bütün kötüler de ara ara gözüküyor. Darkness'ın iblisçikleri harikalar. Hatta onlara bir spinoff yapsınlar zevkle okurum. Okumanızı tavsiye ederim, ben çok sevdim. JBC umarım bunu basar da kitaplığıma koyarım. Harika...

Saindo da leitura de outro crossover DC Comics e Image Comics, que era Batman/Spawn, aportei aqui nesse outro crossover sem muita esperança. Claro, todos conhecem o Batman (mesmo que só uma versão dele), mas poucos conhecem o The Darkness. Ele foi uma criação de Marc Silvestri (um popular desenhista dos X-Men), depois do sucesso de outra personagem sua, The Witchblade. Uma mulher que portava uma luva mística que lidava com a luz. The Darkness, é um assassino da máfia que possui um traje simbionte que faz com que ele controle a matéria da escuridão e os demônios relacionados a ela. Nisso, um mafioso o chama para matar o Batman, que está atrapalhando seus planos. Segue-se então uma maratona de cliches dos quadrinhos grim'n'grittyque se levam a sério demais em mestrar sangue e violência. Mas no fim é tudo histórias feitas por adultos para agradar adolescentes que curtem um massavéio e os seus próprios adolescentes massavéios internos. Ou seja, por mais que eles se levem a sério, qualquer um que não é eles (sejam esses caras desses quadrinhos ou os adolescentes em geral) vão rir sem parar da sua cara. Esse quadrinho é isso. Just bullshit.

Probably closer to 2.5 stars, but I'll round up for the artwork. Somewhat disjointed as a story, but the dynamic art covers a multitude of sins.
