This week DC comics have don a reboot of all the hero's and villains and what a better wat to kick this off than with the Dark Knight himself, Batman. With Detective Comics being the home of Batman it seams fitting and not to mention he, along with superman, is the most iconic comic book hero in history. what sets Batman apart from the rest is that he has no superpowers which a lot of people can relate to, what happens when you push a man to the edge? you get Batman!
Now being a fan of both Marvel and DC marvel do make great hero's and good villains but I cant help but feel that the Marvel villains are made to lose were as the DC villains are made to break the hero completely and are also giving a more meaningful back story. Most of histories biggest Villains come from the Batman comics, everyone knows who the Joker is even if you don't read/watch Batman were as with the likes of Spider-man everyone knows him but maybe not the likes of the green goblin. Were DC gets it right is the giving a Hero the perfect Villain there could be no Batman without the Joker they are the yin to each others yang.
Batman's back story is famous his parents shot and killed in front of him and this brings out the darkness within him and how many villains do you know that are scared of the hero? Batman is a frighting image and really done well in this new reboot of Detective Comics not to spoil anything but the Batman starts off by inturupting him as he murders a man stabbing him brutally before making his escape and that's were the story goes to the end but its what happens in between that's the edge of you seat read that you get when reading about The Joker and has a great cliffhanger with a new Villain that will keep guessing until the next issue comes out.
Ok its not the best comic of the batman series but is perfect to start the new series and much what you would expect from the worlds greatest detective, if you like batman get this book as it is not just a part of batman history but a part of comic book history as like I said this is the 1st time we have seen a DC reboot and is something exciting
