Good story, altern...This is why I read comic books. Good story, alternate take on a character. Reinvention of the wheel so to speak. Has this been done before? Probably. Does it make it less enjoyable? Certainly not.<br /><br />One of the greatest obstacles of good comics/writing is continuity. People get bogged down on this which often takes away the enjoyment of a book. Seen other reviews/comments on this saying “that’s out of character for Batman and that’s why I don’t like the book.” How about you just enjoy the book as a stand-alone. I’ve never got it. Really think there needs to me more stories like this (Good stories not necessarily “elseworld” stories). That said aren’t they only deemed elseworld cos of the slavery the of continuity? If characters have existed for decades it’s hard to tie up every thing in a nice little bow. Solution, get rid of the box. Think the The Big 2 need to re-strategize their story telling. The whole legacy numbering (Marvel) is going to come bite them in the @$$. Writing in (self contained) volumes would be a better e.g. BMB’s Daredevil and Waid’s Daredevil. Let people choose the one more aligned to their taste.<br /><br />But yeah this was a joy to read. Well done mr Murphy. No need to talk about the art cos...; well except the subtle redesigns are a welcome change.<br /><br />Of course this is all my very humble opinion...<br /><br />@JIM W- are there any general comic forums that you can direct me to to chat about this stuff rather than conversing on an issue by issue basis? As you can see I went off at a bit of a tangent.
