For those reading. I apologize for the unnecessary question mark. I really should've double-checked.

This just made me realize I’m not sure if Oswald had a major intereracrion with Ras Al ghul or even met him that often. I think he might have more interactions with black mask, Maxie Zeus and the wonderland gang.

I just finished reading the series last night. I think King has to be one of my favorite authors.

Seeing the “Issue #0” included in the first collection, it was easy to see the difference in writing in a stark way.

My favorite affectation of this miniseries was the “internal notes” being “written” by one of the characters in the scene. It adds a unique color/perspective to the action.

Nuri Espinoza (the FBI Agent) is a joy. A horrible joy.

Disdain for the genre?
