"Snyder still has plenty of tricks up his sleeve..."--IGN "Entertaining."--NERDIST "That thoughtfulness plays out in a damn fun--and beautiful--ride. Snyder has recruited a murderer's row of artists to rotate through each villain-centric arc."--PASTE MAGAZINE "This comic is awesome. There was always an element of bombastic spectacle to balance the strong horror elements in Batman, but ALL-STAR BATMAN sees Snyder doubling down on explosive, dynamic action, brought to the page with incredible energy by penciler John Romita Jr., inker Danny Miki, and colorist Dean White."--A.V. CLUB/THE ONION "Snyder and Romita have produced... the Batman we so desperately need."--POPMATTERS
