Batman Vol. 1: The Court of Owls (The New 52)

This batman comic is one of the if not my most favorite comic book of all time, I've read it more than 5 times.. The Artstyle, the story, meaning, thw way they handled the characters.. It's a Masterpiece in my opinion...

Good story and packaging was also good

First batman comic ever

This is one of the best batman comic book with new batman storyline.

Nothing to write more as everyone knows that this is a modern masterpiece. The story is unique & very niche. If you're into graphic novel or if you're a batman fan, read this graphic novel for a great story by Synder & stunning artwork by Capullo. ***Requesting Amazon again, please do sent these kind of books with adding little more protective layer during packaging. As these are sophisticated products, there is a huge chance of multiple tear & dents that can cause due to shipment handle, which I had faced when I received these kinds of graphic novel earlier. Though gladful I'm as this came with pristine condition.

You it's good cause write surname is Snyder 🔥🙏🏻 and its Batman 🦇

Good

The screenplay writing in this is legendary. It seems it's written like a movie that keeps you hooked till the end. Must have for all batman fans.

Si te gusta Batman, este cómic te va a encantar. Muy en la línea del resto de cómics del universo DC.

Hadn't read it in years. Still iconic.

Gotham City is not only home to a number of dark yet zany characters but it is has an abundant history filled with mysteries of Gotham's past. One of which entails the mysterious group that goes by the name 'the Court of Owls'. As chilling as it may sound - as far as Bruce Wayne is concerned, the Court of Owls is nothing more than just an urban myth. Descriptive Spoiler Alert: On the flip side, Bruce Wayne (the man with the money when not battling crime as Batman) introduces his new project that will change the face of Gotham in a big way. With all of Gotham’s wealthy citizens as well as some very important figures like Lincoln March, Gotham’s current mayoral candidate. Even Dick Grayson, Tim Drake and Damian Wayne are present to show their support. However, it is March that Bruce wants on his side since he seems to stand for all the things that are good about the city. He even agrees to meet with March in private, but duty calls and Bruce sneaks away to see to a gruesome murder scene. It seems that a complete mystery man with no real prints or a true identity is found strapped and used like a human dartboard with antique throwing knives stuck to all the right vital organs. The killer also left behind a message in oil that says Bruce Wayne will die tomorrow. Investigating the murder, two things show up that are quite surprising. One is that the body of the victim carries the unusual signature of the Court of Owls and the other being that DNA found on the body also points to somebody very close to Batman. Despite having a new mystery to unravel, Bruce meets with Lincoln March on the top floor of the original Wayne Tower when they are both attacked by a man in an unusual costume that brings to mind Night Owl from The Watchmen. Armed with antique throwing knives, the assailant injures March and throws Bruce out the window but the only one that goes splat is the killer who gets up again. Thus, begins Batman’s frantic search to find the Court of Owls. He’s like a man possessed as he investigates as he tells Dick Grayson about an incident in his past that became something of an obsession. When he does find evidence of the Court of Owl’s existence, Batman falls prey to a trap that will test his survival skills and his very own sanity. Locked in a labyrinth with various clues about the group, Batman becomes disheveled and pushed to the edge of sanity. Several days in the darkness, Batman ventures out only to see that the Court had dealt with Waynes before such as Alan Wayne who was thought to have died when he fell down a manhole. Suddenly, the Court’s assassin called Talon attacks and injures Batman so badly that he suddenly tastes death by the hands of the Court itself. In a desperate battle to stay alive, Batman manages to get the upper hand on his enemy and also finds a way to escape only to pass out and wake up in a van where he was brought back to life by none other than a girl that Batman knows well. It is back in the Batcave that the Dark Knight discovers that Alfred had picked up the body of the Talon. It is there and then that Batman makes a very grim discovery as well as a shocking link between the man who wore the Talon outfit and Dick Grayson himself. Scott Snyder is one of the best comic book writers to come along in a long time and this Batman series is better with him behind the story. He weaves an interesting tale with enemies that give the Dark Knight something to worry about and, by the end of this volume; you will want to see where The Court of Owls story line will take our hero who is a Batman with more personality and flaws. This is a Batman who can get hurt and knows his own limits. Greg Capullo's artwork is absolutely awesome and beautifully detailed to the point that you will be flipping back the pages to admire the artwork again. Since the story contains gruesome scenes, there’s blood aplenty and Capullo pulls it off brilliantly. This Batman story is a Must Have for any comic book fan who has been waiting for a great Batman book. Snyder and Capullo are a tight knit duo of perfection - which makes this series well worth reading. This New 52 book (comic series) purely awesome! 5 star all the way!

Scoot snyder might be the best writer in history of batman comics

横文字が苦手でまったく洋書に手を付けずに来ましたがたまにはチャレンジと思い挑戦。 知ってるタイトルをチョイスし辞書片手で読んでます。 やはりストーリーがわかってる 話が一番ですね。
