Summary: I highly recommend this book This graphic novel is a collection of three Halloween stories involving Batman. In Fears, the Scarecrow returns to Gotham City, and he's turning the lights out for one scary Halloween. In Madness, that arch-villain the Mad Hatter is stealing children, and when he grabs Commissioner Gordon's daughter, it becomes personal. The final story is Ghosts, in which Bruce Wayne is visited by the ghost of his father, who warns him that three spirits will visit him for his own reformation; it's a Halloween version of the Christmas Carol, and Bruce hates seeing someone use his father's image - somebody needs to be taught a lesson, but who? Overall, I really enjoyed this book. I thought that the artwork was very good, and I certainly enjoyed the stories. What was the meaning of the third story? I guess that it is up to you (and Bruce) to decide. As for me, I highly recommend this book. Summary: Don't Bother The art work is okay, but not very interesting. The storylines are terrible. Not in the same league as the other two Loeb Batman graphic novels. Highly disappointing. Summary: Not Bad, But Ultimately Unsatisfying A very quick read, this compilation of three short Batman stories left me wanting more. Although the premise behind each story is good, there is simply not enough time and space devoted to any of the stories to explore them completely. I prefer the intricacies and depth of the longer TPB titles. Fine for a quick bat-fix, if you have an hour to spare, this book is for you. Summary: 3 Fine Stories Set early in Batman's career, these tales show what Gotham's worst criminals do on All Hallow's Eve. In the first story, entitled 'Fears', Batman confronts the Scarecrow, who's destroying Gotham's power plants, then using the subsequent darkness to commit crimes. As I've said before. Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale are perfectly suited to bring us tales of the Dark Knight. These stories are very well written by Loeb, whose words mesh well with Sale's dark artwork. The only reason this book doesnt get 5 stars is for the somewhat linear Mad Hatter story. I may be a bit biased, because the Mad Hatter is my least favorite Batman villain, but I was a little disappointed with it. The other two stories, however, are marvelous. Overall, this book is well worth owning. I strongly recommend it. Summary: Great Batman Tales with a Halloween Theme This is a collection of 3 Jeph Loeb/Tim Sale Halloween tales. Jeph and Tim are known for their magic together, and add Batman and you have instant classics. This is a great book. The 3 stories are different than each other, each tale looks at aspects of Batman's life. The Third story is a Halloween/Batman twist on Dicken's Christmas Carol, worth the book right there. |
