DC Comics and Batman #106 Spoilers and Review follows.
Lots Of NEW with Miracle Molly, Unsanity Collective…
…Simon Saint and Ghost-Maker…
…Plus Harley Quinn, Scarecrow and Mayor Nakano!
Barbara Gordon is Oracle and one of DC’s few Batgirls perhaps as…
…she supports Batman with his efforts against the new menace of the Unsanity Collective and their purported leader Mr. Wyze with the new Miracle Molly looming.
Ghost-Maker returns to help Batman…
…as they defeat the Collective’s henchmen and warning Miracle Molly.
We also more Harley Quinn as, perhaps, comedy relief?
Elsewhere, Simon Saint makes a compelling case for his Magistrate Program, as seen in DC Future State, to new Gotham City Mayor, and former policeman, Christopher Nakano as…
…the Scarecrow watches; could Ricardo become Peacekeeper 1?
The book ends with Mayor Nakano eluding to perhaps Simon Saint’s subtle super-powers…
…unknowingly also being threatened by the Scarecrow!
The back-up story featuring Damian Robin is also compelling, but I’ll tackle that separately.
The Pulse:
The frenetic pace of the main story evoked the new era for the Batman series that builds on the newness and mythology building they have been doing for some time. Solid art and intriguing issue. Scarecrow has never been more menacing. 8 out of 10.
