Month 1: Mandatory David Finch content

David Finch's Batman The Dark Knight#1 W: Paul Jenkins P: David Finch I: Richard Friend
WELL AT LEAST IT CAME OUT.
And talking of coming out...
Holy Dancehall Slang, Batman! The Gay Agendar strikes again! Is there some kind of subversive plot at DC to play up the homosexual subtext in all the Batbooks? I really can't tell any more.
Anyway, the last Batbook of the relaunch is pretty standard fare although the conclusion is pretty great. What isn't so great, or indeed understandable, is why DiDio (and we must presume Johns) place so much faith in the talents of David Finch's Batman The Dark Knight's David Finch to produce work on time or even why they rate him. I mean he's not so much touched by the hand of Jim Lee as rubbed all over by the hand of Jim Lee sufficiently hard that the fingerprints have disappeared and they share DNA. Take this as an example:
But that isn't even the worst of it. This page shows some of the worst anatomy since the relaunch. HIS CALF IS BIGGER THAN HIS THIGH.
Yes. Yes that's exactly the quality of artist that you should make the focus of the New DC. FUCK YOU DIDIO.
(Despite the art, I liked this.)
