The 2-part "Leviathan" story kicks off from guest writer Chris Yost (RED ROBIN) as The Huntress finds herself in an unusual position - the responsible one. Because when Huntress hunts down a violent new criminal, she finds herself stuck with a violent, loose cannon of a partner on the case - the Man-Bat! And in a special story from Mike Benson (Deadpool: Suicide Kings, Moon Knight), Batman and Robin uncover a sinister plot involving dozens of Gotham City's young runaways. Is Arkham Asylum escapee Humpty Dumpty at the center of the scheme - or is he just the tip of an even more dangerous iceberg?

One of My All-Time Favorites!

Streets of Gotham is a Batman series that is willing to tell Batman stories from different characters' viewpoints. This volume starts out with a story about the Huntress and Man Bat, that is both exciting and deep. Next, Batman (Dick Grayson) and Robin (Damian Wayne) investigate the disappearance of some children with some narration by a new young super hero. There's a break in that story for another mystery narrated by Batman and Jim Gordon. The final story returns to the missing children, narrated by Robin and Colin (our new young super hero), and featuring the villain Zsasz.
The Highlights: Incredible writing. Incredible art. Very dark and moody. Both writing and art are top notch! It's great to have a little more variety in the types of stories and viewpoints than the average Batman stories. I also especially love the story of Damian and Colin. Damian has had a challenging life since leaving his mother and losing his father. It's great for him to find another you person he can actually be friends with.
Things to Consider: This collection does contain some more adult content and issues. There is some language, Batman helps a prostitute (who appears in her underwear), and Robin's battle with Zsasz has a lot of blood. I didn't think these elements were over the top or gratuitous, but this book is not ideal for younger readers.
I could go on and on about how impressive this volume is, but the best thing you can do is get your hands on a copy and find out for yourself!

Buckle up Bat-Fans!!

Format:Hardcover
Batman comics are responsible for some of the best storylines in the industry and "Batman: Streets of Gotham Volume 2" is no exception to that belief. Chris Yost, of X-Men fame, begins by weaving a psychological web through the eyes of the Huntress as she battles the Man-Bat on the roof tops of Gotham in an unpredictable standalone story. Afterwards, the comic focuses on Batman and Robin's investigation into the disappearances of orphans, leading to a narrative as intriguing as it is grotesque. "Batman: Streets of Gotham Volume 2" continues the Batman Reborn storyline expanding on Dick Grayson's character as he attempts to fill the Caped Crusader's cowl. Nevertheless, the book allows the casual reader, who hasn't kept up on the Batman mythology or the events of Final Crisis, to simply jump in and enjoy a good Batman tale. "Batman: Streets of Gotham Volume 2" is a must read for Bat-Fans or anyone who enjoys action packed detective drama.

Paul Dini is in top form

Continueing right along from Heart of Hush, Dini and Nguyen don't miss a beat. Art is top notch, story and characters are deep and interesting. Even the stand alone stories are great little breaks to the story. This the rare case where I read monthly AND collect trades. Brava.
