Notes:
(1) Ryan Ferrier co-writes four of the six issues. Which is at least some IDW involvement.
- The entire crossover seems like a wholly DC production.
- I suppose Tynion had his hands full juggling being a leading DC writer with his burgeoning indie ventures.
(2) Immediately, you can tell this is Rebirth Batman because the bat symbol on his chest is outlined in yellow.

Notes:
(1) This story was fine, just not nearly as good as the first crossover.
- There's no fun here. Characters are angry or down in the dumps and this just bangs on the same depressing notes over and over.
- It's also much more complex than before, too busy with too many spare parts.
(2) When did Bane become Michael Chabon?
- Convoluted vocabulary shouldn't be his thing!

Notes:
(1) I don't like the idea that Donatello's the weakest fighter among the Turtles. It's a major plot point here.
- While every Turtle should have their definite strengths and weaknesses, they should all be seen as equally formidable fighters.
- What we get instead is the presumption that Donatello uses smarts and technology to compensate for his physical deficiencies.
