Product Description

Product Description
Gotham City is plagued with crime and corruption in places high and low, but one man has taken a stand against evil in all its forms: the dark avenger known as Batman. Now, the unbelievable has happened: Ra's Al Ghul, the ageless 'Demon's Head' and one of Batman's most dangerous foes, seems to have returned after meeting his death at the hands of his long-lost daughter Nyssa. But why is he after Batman's teenaged son, Damian, the offspring of his other daughter Talia? What offer will tempt Robin to help Ra's? And can the Dark Knight save both his adopted and biological sons? Written and drawn by a host of stars including Grant Morrison ("The Invisibles"), Paul Dini ("Countdown") and many more, this is a Bat-story that cannot be missed!

2.0 out of 5 stars A big disappointment..., 14 Dec 2008
By Mr. C. Evans "movie addict" (Liverpool, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
With the huge success of the recent movie The Dark Knight it's certainly been the year of the Bat.

I have long been a Batman fan and have enjoyed the movies and the comics since I was a teenager. But times move on and tastes change and with the intelligence, sophistication and parallels with the social issues of contemporary times that the movies Batman Begins and The Dark Knight have prsented us with it feels such a shame and a missed opportunity that the recent run of Grant Morrison written Batman comics haven't followed suit.

This volume is very inconsistent with the artwork and writing generally (not all by Morrison himself) seeming to be aimed at a pre-teen audience (some of the art is very Pokemon esque) and even the Paul Dini wirtten chapters don't lift it above mediocre.

If your a fan of the original Tim Burton Batman movie and the more recent Batman Begins and The Dark Knight then check out Frank Miller's superb "Batman: Year One", Alan Moore's "The Killing Joke", Ed Brubaker's "The Man Who Laughs" and of course the classic "Knightfall" Trilogy and any of the Paul Dini written Detective Comics collections.

I have my fingers and toes crossed that Morrison redeems himself with the forthcoming "Batman R.I.P.".

4.0 out of 5 stars One of the best Ra's Al Ghul stories, 4 Oct 2008
By BatDan (Hampshire, England) - See all my reviews
I approached this with some trepidation having been unimpressed with 'Batman and Son'- Grant Morrison's last effort at a Batman comic - but I needn't have worried. This is an excellent story.

Ra's Al Ghul has always been one of my favourite villains and this is one of the better stories featuring 'the Demon's Head'. It is well written by Dini, Morrison et al, and the artwork is consistently very good. Even Damian (Batman's son) is less irritating this time, although I still don't like the character and still don't see that he adds anything to the Batman world.

This classy package tells the story of Ra's Al Ghul's attempt to find a suitable host body for his ancient spirit, with Damian being his preferred candidate. Batman, Robin and Nightwing attempt to stop him, even working with Talia at times, although the daughter of the demon has her own agenda.

I would recommend this book to any serious Batman fan and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The characters are all well drawn and written by a top quality team of writers and artists, and even the new characters are interesting and worthwhile. This is certainly worth the extra money for the hardback edition.
