Batman 1: Their Dark Designs Hardcover – October 20, 2020

James Tynion is one of my favorite new writers. He takes Batman down a dark path. Each of his villains are also on a very dark path. This is 12 steps past where authors of days gone by would take us. His training makes more sense, his way of doing things becomes more clear. This is the Batman Gotham deserves.

This is a great Batman arc, can't wait to read more! Joker is on fire we're seeing Batdude at his most broken down yet.

Great thrill ride and a great way of incorporating alot of the bats original and classic enemies as well as new ones. The way things keep unfolding and the ultimate backstab definitely set the tone for the series and the way things turn out I can't wait to see where the dark knight goes from here.

With Tom Kings run it was an emotional roller coaster so I was hesitant to undergo it again. But Tynion has done a pretty good job especially with this first part and Im excited to aee how Joker’s plan unfolds.

I bought this as part of my husband's Valentine gift and he loved it. He had been missing the issues in this collection and was happy to get caught up. Shipping was fast andnit arrived in perfect condition.

Some of the best I have seen in this weird era of comics. Great art and great story by James Tynion.

Loved it. Hope DC goes far with this run

Another good Batman story!

There’s a lot of stuff to drink out there! You can get a mixer, a breezer, and cocktail, a straight shot, you can have a whiskey and cigar, you down a red bull, and you can choose from a selection of craft beer that’ll make your eyes bulge these days. And all of these are good and right in their time, but there’s nothing like a good ol classic cold one! Just a simple Pilsner, nothing fancy, nothing crazy, but everything great, everything you’ve come to know and love.This is what this comic is, a straight up basic Pilsner, not in the simplistic sense but in the nostalgic homey sense. In the sense of comfort food, of everything you could ask for.The comic doesn’t do anything extravagant or spectacular, it’s simple, straightforward, and to the point and that what makes it great. The art is great and evocative, the story is intriguing and tightly plotted, the characters well developed, and the narrative is well written and simple to follow. The fights are great and the lead up is enticing! I’m really excited to see where this goes!This comic is all the good things about Batman, not watered down. A great read and looking forward to more summer nights on the porch with an ice cold Batman beer in my hand!

Worth reading

Uno de los mejores cómics de Batman leídos hasta la fecha muy recomendable vibrante y unos dibujos tremendos cinco estrellas

Excelente historia que le da un nuevo aire al personaje con nuevos y viejos villanos. La calidad del libro es muy buena y su precio es aún mejor. No se engañen esto no es relleno, es el inicio de una nueva trama que continúa con the Joker war y las nuevas ideas que llevan a cabo en esta historia revitalizan a Batman de una manera que no se había hecho desde Scott Snyder.

Prendere la penna in mano per scrivere nuove storie di Batman dopo la conclusione della saga di Tom King non era certo facile. James Tynion ci è riuscito senza alcun problema, dando il via con questo volume ad un nuovo arco narrativo che sconvolgerà per sempre lo status dell'uomo pipistrello. Disegni fatti molto bene.4 stelle solo perchè la storia fa da antipasto a qualcosa di più grande.
