The TPB starts with a story about Huntress and the Man-Bat that doesn't quite turn out exactly like I thought it would. There's also an Oracle sighting, which happens too infrequently. Then a Commissioner Gordon and Batman mystery which is the most interesting of the three stories, and then the final story is a Robin story. It's interesting that the Streets of Gotham series seems to be more than just about Batman, which doesn't always happen in the Gotham titles. And the art is okay, but not my favorite Batman art by a long shot. A collection of exceptionally well-written one-shot Batman Reborn stories (in which Dick Grayson has filled in for the presumed-dead Bruce Wayne, and Bruce Wayne's son Damian is Robin). The best of the group may be the final story, in which Damian goes nearly solo against Zsasz, learning a few things about not jumping to conclusions, humility, and the virtue of accepting help from others on occasion. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
"The Huntress finds herself in an unusual position - the responsible one. Because when Huntress hunts down a violent new criminal, she finds herself stuck with a violent, loose cannon of a partner on the case - the Man-Bat! Batman and Robin uncover a sinister plot involving dozens of Gotham City's young runaways. Is Arkham Asylum escapee Humpty Dumpty at the center of the scheme - or is he just the tip of an even more dangerous iceberg?"--Amazon.com. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

The title story starts off the collection nicely - The Huntress tracks Man-Bat across the city, and both of them end up in over their heads when they crash into an old church. Dini does a good job of blending Huntress's wit with the spooky situation. My one little grumble here is that it seems like this would be a natural place to address the cross iconography Huntress uses, but it doesn't come up once.
"In The Bleak Midwinter" is a sad, Christmas one-shot featuring Humpty Dumpty and continuing the Zsasz story from the first collection. Really well done.
When I first read through the collection, I wasn't really a fan of "Hardcore Nights", but I enjoyed it a little bit more on the second pass. It's a pretty good Batman mystery story, but ultimately forgettable. (This is where I drop a star.)
The collection gets rounded out with "The Heroes" and "Final Cut", which wrap up the Zsasz storyline and reveal the identity of Abuse. This is another bit that I originally wasn't a huge fan of, but came to enjoy more.
All in all, Streets of Gotham continues to entertain (and Nguyen's art continues to wow)
