Scott Snyder and Tom King usher in a new era for Batman in this excellent Rebirth tie-in issue.
Here is our review!
ThisBatman: Rebirth#1 review contains spoilers.
Janin draws some particularly horrifying close-ups that illustrate the process of being reborn.
David Cronenberg, and especially horror manga artist Junji Ito, would be proud.
With King and Janin reunited after their run onGrayson, they waste no time in presenting a sexier Bruce.
Gone is the beard, but also the shirt.
Its, again, more of a softly spoken poem about how time brings about renewal.
Theres even a direct connection to something that was teased in SnydersBatmanrun that will make readers double take.
Bruce, with the slightest hint of a smile, says, Easy.
We come back better each time, too.
