And that point is I will pretend that "Matthew" paid his butler to kill people. But where it all falls apart for me, is that "Matthew" seems to be aware of the fact that Bruce's trauma caused him to become a vigilante. And so "Matthew" now wants other people to die so he can become a villain. I don't know. I gave a 6.5 because I just appreciated the art that much. But 5.5 is certainly appropriate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-55965153888561032272018-03-14T23:03:12.595-04:002018-03-14T23:03:12.595-04:00Maybe this IS the kid from Creature of the Night, ...Maybe this IS the kid from Creature of the Night, and it was his monster that killed them???

And even though I enjoyed it, those problems really do bring the whole thing down simply because this is supposed to be a mystery story, and I guess I just expect mysteries to be tighter. That's part of what makes a good mystery so satisfying.

Or he had the Butler kill everyone? ... to be honest I didn't see it as being the kid because wouldn't at least one of the two adults just throw a kid across the room before being stabbed to death? Maybe im dumb or maybe Tom King just just focus and give us a coherent arc for once Branden Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05751097852611906043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-64158199467213481302018-01-03T18:38:14.062-05:002018-01-03T18:38:14.062-05:00Spot on review.
