REVIEW


A great first annual. This annual show us the other part of the Villians, it's not necicary the good part of the villians that is shown. I like it really mutch. This annual is drawn in a little bit diffrent style, not very diffrent but a little bit. This is the best annual in any Batman series i read and we want more of this.

RATING: 5 of 5
