Written by Matt Wagner Art and cover by Wagner. Matt Wagner takes the Dark Knight through his sophomore season in this 6-issue miniseries! Batman has spent his first year fighting organized crime ? but nothing thus far in his early career as the Caped Crusader has prepared him for the new menace facing Gotham: super-powered villains! This is the first of two planned Wagner miniseries featuring Batman, each under the heading "Dark Moon Rising." On sale November 16 ? 1 of 6 ? 32 pg, FC, $2.99 US Edited by Bob Schreck. REVIEW BY LONE STAR COMICS REGIONAL MANAGER AARON SETTLE: Batman and the Monster Men marks Matt Wagner's return to the world of Batman. This new mini-series written and illustrated by Wagner takes place during Batman's early days fighting crime. He is still hopeful of actually winning his war and vanquishing crime in Gotham. And he has good reason to feel that way; these are the days before the costumed criminals began to appear in Gotham. He was still fighting to bring down The Roman and had just defeated the Red Hood. But the rules begin to change as Hugo Strange conducts bizarre experiments to unlock human potential, experiments that will undoubtedly move him into conflict with Batman. The first issue moves nicely and sets up all the characters. If you're a fan of Batman, you'll love this one. Cover price $2.99.
