Batman Vol. 10: Epilogue | |
Praise for BATMAN VOL. 7: ENDGAME:
"ENDGAME: their biggest story line in terms of cast and scope during the duo's classic four-year run on the series and one designed to celebrate the character's 75th anniversary."--USA TODAY
"ENDGAME, as with all of Snyder's run of Batman so far, is a story that simply should not be missed. Snyder's themes are boldly stated yet again with an intent to add even more to the Batman mythos."--IGN
"ENDGAME hits the ground with a dynamic explosion, letting readers know right away that this saga is going to be every bit as dynamic as "Court of Owls," "Death of the Family" or "Zero Year." I'm all in, especially since every single contributor on this book brings their absolute best."--CBR
"Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo start their new arc with a bang, as a Batman fights against the biggest, most indomitable foes he's ever seen."--NEWSARAMA

网友对Batman Vol. 10: Epilogue的评论
I'll be honest, I wasn't thrilled that this volume was coming into print. I'm convinced that DC stretched it's arguably strongest title out two extra volumes to make money. The Justice League New 52 title was wrapped up in 8 volumes with 50 issues. Batman New 52 finished a bit stronger with 52 issues in 10 volumes. Can you spot the difference? Endgame was an ideal, cohesive, length of story. Superheavy was where I could tell they were milking us a bit. Volume 9 would have been the logical place to conclude, but here we are with volume 10, hailed as the concluding chapter to Capullo and Snyder's run on Batman. With that irksome rant out of the way, let's look at what this volume is as a stand alone volume. Because despite all that nonsense above, I actually really enjoyed Epilogue.
Right off the bat (pun intended), here's the worst quality of this volume: the fact that it is labeled the final Capullo and Snyder Batman. There is only one issue (51) that is drawn and written by Capullo and Snyder, respectively. The issue is fantastic, and very symmetric to their first issue, and would have been a fitting concluding issue to finish the series on. Both artist and writer do their legacy and reputation proud, and while not delivering a climactic ending to their Batman, a satisfying work is delivered. Despite the finality of this issue, it is followed by issue 52, the REAL last issue. However, the final two issues are different enough where they both work and are respectful of their placement. Batman's final New 52 adventure deserved two finishing acts, and these issues work well together to accomplish this.
Before these issues are the Future's End Batman issue and the 4th Batman annual. The FE issue is surprisingly good; I had never read the original issue and decided to skip out on the series, so it was a pleasant surprise to find its inclusion. The annual is okay, and probably the least memorable part of this volume. The art is okay, and the story likewise acceptable, but nothing to write home about.
The final chapter is actually the first issue of the Batman: Rebirth title. I must say, I was unsure if I would follow the series as closely with the major talent switch, but this issue forced me to reconsider. The story was engaging, the art fantastic, and most importantly, very Batman-feeling. It's worth reading, even if not in this collection.
Overall, this was a good volume of Batman New 52. I thought volume 6 was going to be the weakest volume of the series, until I saw what this volume was to include. Surprisingly, however, volume 6 remained the weakest, with volume 10 delivering some very solid reading. Am I still a little disappointed that DC stretched out this title? Yes. Do I have any buyer's remorse? No. I'm glad I bought this book. Maybe it would be wise to wait for the price to drop a bit, or get the TPB, but this collection is worth having. Capullo and Snyder's final work is unquestionably fantastic, and the primary reason I purchased this book. The rest of the issues being as good as they are was an added bonus. As a stand-alone volume, it's strong and enjoyable. The fact that each chapter wraps itself up nicely is a nice change of pace from the multi-issue arcs we are used to seeing. If you only want the final Capullo and Snyder issue, it would probably make more sense just to buy the single issue. If you want to conclude your New 52 Batman title, then you won't be disappointed.
SIL loved receiving this book. Perfect gift!
great story
Instead of putting the final Snyder / Capullo Batman issue, #51, in the last volume, it's stuffed in here alongside a one shot, an annual, and a "preview" of Batman Rebirth #1. This makes for a mixed bag of reading.
The one-shot is from "Future's End", a DC crossover from what seems like years ago. Bruce as Batman infiltrates a Lex Luthor facility sometime in what seems like an alternate continuity. While it's not bad as a story, it's the most out of place story in this volume.
Next is a Batman annual with Bruce returning to Wayne Manor after it housed Arkham inmates for awhile in his absence. This is actually a pretty decent issue written by Tynion, that features Bruce having to outwit Riddler, Clayface and Freeze out of costume.
Next is the last Snyder / Capullo Batman issue, #51 of the run that started with the New 52 relaunch. It's set on a night where not much is happening in Gotham besides a power outage. This is still a great issue, that features call backs to earlier stories in the run.
#52 is a bit of a forgettable issue, with Batman going up against a new villain. It's too bad scheduling probably made it so Snyder / Capullo didn't have anything to do with this final issue of the New 52 series.
Last is the "preview" of the Rebirth issue. I don't know why they didn't just publish the whole thing here. What is here is pretty good.
This probably has more in common with the "Graveyard Shift" volume of cleaning up of stories that didn't fit anywhere else. Disappointing, but as a completist, I'm glad to have the last Snyder / Capullo issue. I just wish I hadn't trade-waited it in this case.
5 sad little issues for 22.95? This is a blatant cash grab by DC.
I buy almost all of my comics from Amazon. I don't read trade magazines or websites about the industry. I tend to follow writers and just buy what they put out. I've been burned many times by DC and Marvel when they have an author on the cover but he/she only has written one issue (Marvel loves doing this with Bendis). Once again, the DC money collectors have struck again. Less than half of this was written by Snyder.
I've written about Synder in other reviews, so I'll briefly summarize. His superlative early work on American Vampire led to the Batman gig. His first few volumes were quite good, but they faded a bit over time (it also suffered when compared to Geoff Johns Batman: Earth One, which is my favorite Batman of the 21st century). Fans seem to love issues 51 and 52. The topic of 51 is ambitious and could be interesting if handled better. It is a slapdash way of explaining Batman's eternal age of 35 since 1939 (it should be flushed out as it's own book by a writer who has really thought it out). Issue 52 is clearly the highlight of this though. It is decent, nothing more.
I am looking forward to Tom King taking over. He's a great new writer. His work on Vision, Omega Men and the Sheriff of Babylon was inspired.
