I see why everyone makes a big deal about this graphic novel, it's very well done. The story of Arkham is just as disturbing and strange as you'd expect it to be. The art is incredibly unique and I think fits with the vibe of the madhouse perfectly. My only complaint is that sometimes I wanted to se...
5 Stars, buy it Self Purchase, Comixology. First Impression: Creepy as hell. Brilliant. Amazing art. Creepy and scarey as hell. Though the text and font for Joker while reading on the iphone is really hard to read. Not as bad when reading on the computer. I was a bit confused by what exactly ...
My dislike of this book borders on violent. I realize what the author and artist were going for, and I appreciate the foreward and even the screenplay with commentary.

I absolutely love the art in this. I hadn't seen the work of Dave McKean before, and I found it mind blowing. It's dark, terrifying, and the inmates were everything I ever wanted them to be. (This rendition of the Joker will haunt my dreams for a loooong time) The one thing that made me take one st...
I admit, I picked this up for a re-read after playing Arkham Asylum. Fantastic game, by the way, well-written, with great action and incredible voice acting. But this is not about that game, about which I could rave for hours.I remember loving this graphic novel when I first read it, but reading it ...
Reread. Perhaps one of the darkest Batman stories I have ever read. Took such an interesting, morbidly dark take on characters that are often viewed as goofy and laughable by most. Highly recommended, but not for those easily disturbed.
