[World of Bats] Batman Vol 2 #13-17 "Death of the Family"

[AlexanderKnox]

I’ll once again grab my comments from another post, this time one from the Dick Grayson Fan Club:

@AlexanderKnox

I was reminded of why I disliked this one less than Snyder’s other arcs: it sticks the landing. It’s the only story of his Batman (2011) run where I actually enjoy it more at its resolution than I did at its beginning.

To elaborate, I find all of the “cutting off and reattaching Joker’s face” stuff from the New 52 to be utterly inane, and I remember being really ticked off when it appeared that the Joker had done the same to the Bat-Family, but the ending of the story was fairly satisfying. I generally like Snyder’s work with the Joker (and Red Hood One) more than I like his non-Joker stories.
