Batman is slowing down a bit it seems since the wedding, everyone close knows he’s not okay. Knowing Bruce though that never stops him, he can’t stop, he can always improve. So when he decides to take up a case of simple murder, Jim Gordon is a bit concerned. Coming to the scene personally to speak with Batman personally. Making sure his friend is okay. Murders, however, are never simple. Batman uncovers an arsenal at the victim’s apartment just a Firefly arrives with a protege to clean up. Bruce knows he’s onto something big and will stop at nothing to find out what’s going on.
This Issue
Bruce is on the trail to two firebugs. Figuring out that the murder victim is actually not who he was identified as, in reality, the body was of someone murdered in another city. While Batman learns there’s a master of this puppet show pulling the strings, Firefly explains to his successor how he’s been able to stay at this even with the Batman constantly defeating him. Batman arrives on the scene to snuff out these bugs before any more of Gotham is lost to their flames. Here to end the puppet show.
Thoughts
This new arc with Bruce off of his game is rather interesting. I’m very much enjoying the incorporation of Bruce being depressed since the wedding in all of these recent issues. Stephen Segovia brings art that is intense even in parts of exposition really compliments Robinson’s writing to the fullest.
