Product Description

From Booklist

When writer Loeb and artist Lee were assigned to one of DC Comics' highest-profile titles, it resulted in the most acclaimed Batman stories since Frank Miller revitalized the character in the Dark Knight series nearly two decades ago. Both Loeb and Lee have large fan followings, Loeb for his thoughtful takes on iconic superheroes, and Lee for his flashy, dynamic artwork. This book collects the second half of their 12-issue run on Batman, picking up where volume 1 [BKL Jl 03] left off. The story line is set in motion by a mysterious foe who is manipulating Batman's familiar villains, and that gives Loeb and Lee opportunity for distinctive versions, in this book, of Joker, Riddler, and Clayface as well as former villainess Catwoman, now embarked on a tentative romance with the Caped Crusader. For all the hype surrounding Hush, both volumes are built largely around the standard brawling by which, fairly or not, the superhero genre has long been characterized. Which is no deterrent to the wild popularity both volumes should enjoy. Gordon Flagg

5.0 out of 5 stars Killer Art by Jim Lee continues..., July 7 2004
By 
Hengky Tanoyo "Art Devourer" (Surabaya, Indonesia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Batman: Hush - Volume Two (Hardcover)
I used to assume that given his flair and elegant drawing style, there's no way Jim Lee could tackle the dark, grim and gritty portrayal of Batman's world. Yet Hush shatters all my doubts. This guy rocks man! I could spend hours savoring the illustration alone and not caring about the story but the story is also top notch.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loeb Does it Again! Lee's Art is Outstanding!, Feb 27 2004
This review is from: Batman: Hush - Volume Two (Hardcover)
Batman: Hush Vol. 1 & 2, are a nice collector's edition. It should not, however, stop someone from collecting last years monthly story. Loeb is one of the few who can create a tight story with a good plot and has a nack for using multiple characters out of the DC universe. Who is the responsible villain this time: Ivy, Two face, Joker, Riddler, or is it someone else, deep from Batman's past?

This story is a little more predicatble than "The Long Halloween" and "Dark Victory" but still is engaging enough to bring the reader in and hold his or her interests until the final pages, even if they figure it out. Again, Batman gets pushed to the edge in a believable way (yes, even though it is a comic, some resemblance of realism must still take place for the reader to enjoy the story).

An overall great story that all can enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Continuing the best Batman storyarc in years, Jan 20 2004
By 
N. Durham "Big Evil" (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Batman: Hush - Volume Two (Hardcover)
Collecting the final issues of the "Hush" storyarc by Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee; just about everything comes full circle as the storyline comes to a close. Loeb's talent for underwriting comes to a head as secrets are revealed, although I must say that the identity of Hush wasn't something we all didn't see coming. More of Batman's infamous enemies surface: including the Riddler, Clayface, and even the Joker in a pivotal scene. Lee's art is superb as always, and his rendering of Catwoman is plain mouthwatering. Since "Hush" was a huge hit for DC, Loeb and Lee have promised to come back to Batman to write a follow up, but whether or not it can live up to this storyarc will remain to be seen.
