Batman #58-60: The Tyrant Wing

 THE TYRANT WING


Written by Tom King
Penciled by Tom Taylor and Mikel Janin
Published Nov-Dec 2018

   So apparantly Bane is now running the Arkham Asylum, and he's got the Penguin marked for death. To convince Batman to work with him to eliminate their common enemy, he threatens Alfred's life. When Batman breaks in to beat Bane up, the criminal feigns innocence (as well as mental illness), eventually leading Batman to punch out even Commissioner Gordon. This begins Batman's continuing wave of destruction on all his foes to discover if it's true. In the end, somehow - it ends with Batman NOT learning who shot Dick Grayson, but instead with his... father, another Batman skulking in? I don't know. I don't get it. But with Tom King, it's definitely not the first time a weird ending left me in the dark.


I give this one a 7/10.
