Batman: Reptilian

Product Information

Liam Sharp also has a note at the beginning, saying he would draw this book in completely his own style, as Dillon would have wanted him to. Years later, an editor at DC, Marie Javins, pitched to Ennis that he should finish his script and have Liam Sharp, who had just wrapped on Green Lantern with Morrison, do the art.

The dark tones of the story match the artwork, but the latter is a bit too shadowy and difficult to comprehend. It’s hard not to tell people about this series without giggling a little, which is maybe the best you can hope for from any sort of mainstream American entertainment in 2021. It’s like Ennis made the conscious decision to abandon everything that made the story interesting in favor of making the goofiest possible book. Art where you have to try and squint to figure out what is going on and colour that was overly dark.Despite being lower profile than Preacher, Hitman ran for 60 issues (plus specials) from 1996 to 2001, veering wildly from violent action to humour to an examination of male friendship under fire. Another series for Crisis was True Faith, a religious satire inspired by his schooldays, this time drawn by Warren Pleece.

There's a crime wave in Gotham, and several of the city's most notorious criminals have been turning up. The twist of this story is also an astounding disservice to Killer Croc’s character (you wouldn’t believe me even if I told you what it was), tastelessly butchering his background and nature for the sake of delivering a ludicrous, unoriginal, and dull surprise regarding the story’s mysterious main antagonist.

Quando tomei conhecimento desta série achei que iria revolver sobre as lendas urbanas dos reptilianos na família real inglesa, mas não foi o caso, era algo muito mais simples.

Some rare moments of dark and unexpected verbal humor from our title character occasionally liven up the dark proceedings, but otherwise this was unimpressive and unmemorable. I’m a big fan of he and Grant Morrison’s run on Green Lantern, but his paintings in this series are absolutely stunning. Which I shouldn't have been, because Black Label seem determined to put out even more Batman titles than core DC, so at this point they must be flinging absolute shedloads of cash at any big name who isn't entirely sworn of work for hire.He takes the no killing rule that the ideal version of his character has, and uses it as a scare tactic. In the final issue, after Batman tries to use him as bait for Killer Croc's offspring, he tries to get back at him for all the fear and troubles Batman put him in. Giger's Xenomorph creation from the Alien film series) laying waste to both the good citizens and bad criminals of Gotham - attempts horror movie shock value but succeeds in only being distasteful and rather dull. All this while Batman compares the creature's life cycle with that of other animals, to Croc's despair.
