Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Average Storytelling
This collection is taken from Batman #651-654 and Detective Comics #817-820. It take place one year later from the events in Infinite Crisis. It starts out with the some of the lesser supervillians being killed off by an unknown pursuant. The mystery surrounding the killings is heightened by the discovery of the murder weapon that once belonged to Two-Face. One year ago, Batman choose Harvey Dent to protect the city during his absence. Harvey was seemingly cured of his disfiguration and his split ...

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Weak Central Story Sidelined by Editorials
Face the Face is a later Batman tale occurring in the "1 Year Later" (one year post-Infinite Crisis) era. The plot is supposed to be about the "inner demons" Harvey Dent battles after having been declared clinically sane and having his face restored. The schizophrenic Dent, who has been appointed by Batman to be the city's new guardian while he, Robin, and Nightwing are away, must choose between becoming a functional, good citizen again or devolving back into the arch-villain Two Face. Unfortunately, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great for Two-Face fans more than Batman fans.
This is a pretty well written graphic novel, but in terms of action vs story, it is EXTREMELY heavy on the story side--so for a fan of Batman's rich history and villains, this was right up my alley. The action definitely doesn't lack, though, but it shows great development of the Tim Drake Robin, of Harvey Dent/Two-Face, and of the Dark Knight himself.

Is it a must read? If you like the story of ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Very average
The great James Robinson (Starman/JSA) returns to Batman to write this creative relaunch of the Batman and Detective Comics series. He is the perfect choice but the artwork fluctuates between good and bad with artists Andy Clark (good) and Don Kramer(not so much) taking turns with each of the six chapters.
It has become tradition with batman where better writers are stradeled with below par artists to mediocre effect. There should have been more effort to try to have one artist do all the art chores ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - I'd rather face a different book
I couldn't decide whether to give this two or three stars, but it gets three thanks to the art. Every page was consistently top-notch and well-executed, and the covers, especially the Two-Face ones, were absolutely stunning.

The writing, however, left much to be desired. As a bit of a grammar Nazi, I have to mention that Robinson's punctuation errors were rampant. (Most notably, he doesn't seem to understand the relationship between a period and a question mark.) Still, that's a minor problem. ... Read More
