Azreal AOTB 91: Fugitive Part 15 (Spoilers)

[Beyond Batman]

Despite what some of you guys thought in the "Batman Gotham Knights #30 talkback with preview (spoilers)" thread, I actually liked this issue. It kinda points out some things that I thought were note worthy.

1) It's the first issue since Vesper's death where Batman actually defends Bruce Wayne, finally admitting his innosense in words (mind you, in a calm manner). I know it's almost a given... but it's nice to see it and have it in writting.

2) It shows how a Azreal is a bad reflection of being Batman, taking what the Bat stands for and twisting it into a psychotic mental case.

This book also brought together Nightwing and Robin, to join Batman in the arse kicking of Azreal. Or maybe to prevent Batman from killing Azreal. Well... overall... this book adds a good piece to the Fugitive saga. It's worth picking up IMO.

I agree 100%. I think its almost as if this has been planned since 1994 when Azreal gave up the bat costume, but every little detail of this issue has made the whole fugitive story even better and more interesting. Its a true batman tale, full of mystery and each issue offers more and more clues.
