Batman (Gardner)

Batman, Craig Shaw Gardner, 1989


A promising prologue, but then it fell apart. Little more than what passed the screen hit the pages. Harvey Dent got a few mentions, but no more action or appearances. The narrative was uneven -- at times, dark and cynical; others, too sarcastic. And not just when the Joker was in the scene. The narrator's voice blended with the characters' thoughts too freely.
Could've been so much better.
Quick read. (Day and a half, maybe)
