"Tomasi is able to take advantage of the medium and deliver a tale that focuses more on humor and character drama without ignoring the brutal action the games are known for. There's enough meat to this story that it should appeal even to Bat-fans who don't care about this video game universe."--IGN Praise for Tomasi: "Tomasi seamlessly continues to amaze."--Newsarama "Peter J. Tomasi proves yet again that he is a master architect of tragedy."--IGN "Powerful."--Crave Online
