What with all of the Kony controversy this week (I haven’t seen the video, but I know the basic gist) this book feels especially relevant and timely. As Batwing and Batman try and get to Gotham, we as readers are treated to a flashback to The Kingdom’s last stand, and we finally find out about the supposedly horrible thing they did. It was cool to see these characters, and I liked how Winick made their actions neither right or wrong, you can see how both sides could be correct. I’ve always liked Dustin Nguyen, so it was good to have him provide artwork for this issue, I know Marcos To is taking over, but I wouldn’t mind Nguyen here permanently. Also, did anyone else get the feeling that former-Kingdom members Staff and Razorwire were gay? It seems like Winick was hinting towards that, but you never can be sure. It doesn’t really matter though, they’re dead.
