HOLY WOW THIS IS AWESOME.

Okay, okay, I need to type clearly and fangirl less, I get it. *ahem*

Batman Eternal is Batman at it's finest. While New 52 kicked off with Court of Owls, which was phenomenal, but this is one of the greatest trilogies in Batman History. I've said it's up there with Hush and The Long Halloween, and boy I meant it.

Batman really has no clue what's going on, and it's not until the last quarter of the book that I figured it out, but really, what you can guess isn't even right. There's one hint but it's not much of a hint cuz there's so many hints flying at you, and EVERY MEMBER of the Rogue's Gallery is flying around causing mayhem. It takes every member of the Bat Family and then some to keep Gotham from collapsing and more than one character wonders if they'll survive.

The hundreds of twists each bind-up goes through is INSANE, and I just can't tell what's going where and what's happening. It's brilliant and beautiful, and more than once I had to put the book down and remember breathe as the action and scenes took my breath away. This is fantastic and every Batman fan needs to read this. Seriously, New 52 has outdone itself and created a comic for the ages.

Batman Eternal

Wow.

You have to, HAVE TO read this series. This is Batman as it's best, with twists and turns that are beyond surprising and blow me away. Eternal stands with The Long Halloween, The Killing Joke, Hush, and Under the Red Hood. I have no clue what's going to happen next and I'm dying to continue the story in volume 3.

Now it's gonna get spoilery.

With Hush being the villain you know it's going to be good, and you know there is no honor, no usual tricks and moves. There's no one he won't use, and no one he won't hurt. Even those fighting for him realize they're puppets of the worst kind and totally disposable. Each character is at risk you have no idea what's going to happen next.

The twists were great and like the best Batman comics there are cute and hilarious moments, like when the family meets Julia and Red Hood freaks out over Alfred having a daughter, as well as horrifying like when you have no clue if Alfred will make it. I enjoyed it and as I've read Batman volume 6 which is past Eternal, I know this is going to be amazing.
