Batman #21
Writer: Scott Snyder
Artist: Greg Capullo
Well it has finally arrived Zero Year. I have been looking forward to seeing Snyder’s take on the early years of Batman. Many people may not want a new “origin” story, but with the respect Snyder and company feel about Year One, I was excited to see what they would do.
What occurs in this issue is something great. It is always tough to review the first issue in a new story arc but this seems to set up something excellent. I will at first it seemed very “wordy” at least more then a normal Snyder issue, but the artwork was beautiful and made gotham “pop”. It was nice seeing gotham in the daylight for once, with Bruce wanting to save Gotham on his own. Things heated up toward the end with the reveal of the possible villain, which I remember reading in an article but the way he was presented still kind of shocked and had me excited.
Little side note: I loved the hat Bruce was wearing.
