This is the Snyder and Capullo show. This is the work of two men at the top of their games. They have never been more confident in their storytelling.New York Post

Batmans new direction gets off to a great start with some strong characterization and inventive art. IGN

Scott Snyder has reinvented Batman, deepening and humanizing the Dark Knights myth like no one since Frank Miller in the 1980s.The New York Times
