BONUS REVIEW by GARY OWENS
Spoke with Russell Lissau at Wizard World: Chicago, who wrote for Batman Strikes. He saw my son, and signed a previous issue he wrote (#38-highly recommended), and gave him a small drawing of Robin. Thrilled my son. I mentioned how these series are dropped before issue #60, and he gave me the bad news. The end is coming, fans. But something good will replace it, and I can’t wait to see it. For this issue, from Josh Elder, it had a good start, with the villain Black Mask threatening to blow up Gotham, but for me it fizzled at the end. Still, I’m bulking up for winter on the DVDs.
