Rating: Summary: Ho-Hum. Review: Every time a Batman movie is released, DC releases a set of one-shots to capitalize on it. This was released along with Batman and Robin, but thankfully it has nothing else to do with that atrocity.The story picks up after Contagion. Bane is floating around, having flashbacks so new readers know what's up. By sheer luck, he happens upon a floating nuclear power plant and decides to irradiate Gotham and Bludhaven. His mistake. The story of Bane is picked up in Azrael #36. The art is rigid, but not really bad. The dialogue is what we've come to expect from these characters. The story really has no impact on the mythos -- you could go right from Contagion to Azrael and Bane and miss nary a beat.
Rating: Summary: Knell, and tremble under the wrath of BANE! Review: Wow! I first read this book after reading the Batman: Knightfall seires and boy, was I impressed! Not only does it complement the miniseries perfectly, but it also stands up well on it's own. It basically chronicles the crimes of Bane after the Knightfall saga, and his final conflict with the Dark Knight. Buy this book of your Batman collection will never be complete! Peace.
