About this deal

She learns that Annika was strangled because Mitchell told her that Falcone was the informant, and resolves to kill him. The second issue of The Cult opens with Batman dreaming that he’s shooting Two-Face to death with an Uzi. That's something that surprised me as in most comics, especially today, we always see Batman as this ultimate badass who cannot be defeated no matter what; but this story has him brought down to his lowest level and him having to climb his way back up. His tactical assault on the Dark Knight in " Knightfall" left the hero worn out and vulnerable, allowing the merciless villain to attack an exhausted Bruce Wayne in his own home.

Batman: The Cult Review - IGN

Deacon Blackfire, a charismatic shaman with roots as old as Gotham City itself, has amassed the city's homeless into an army, one he seemingly uses to fight crime. He idolizes Batman-who inspired him to target the corrupt-and proposes a partnership, but Batman angrily rejects him. It is dark in the Wayne Estate and Bruce Wayne finds himself walking towards a mysterious house that has never existed before. Starlin plays well to Wrightson’s strengths – at one point, Bruce is attacked by zombies of his parents, in a scene that works much better than it should. There is no way that Dick Grayson, Tim Drake or even Damian Wayne could have helped bring Batman back.in the times of the colonization, the Miagani, a Native American tribe, based on what would eventually become Gotham City, dealt with a strange menace, in the embodiment of some kind of shaman, finally locked up in cave that later imprudent colonist liberate him. Through Selina, Batman discovers that Savage was on Falcone's payroll, as is district attorney Gil Colson. Angered at being rejected by his idol, Nashton begins ranting to which Batman realizes that Nashton still has something planned. I often have trouble getting into the ultra-dark books, and I'm glad the pendulum has swung a little further away from that. It was written by Jim Starlin, illustrated by Bernie Wrightson, colored by Bill Wray and edited by Denny O'Neil.

But we see the GCPD fail, the National Guard fail, and Batman fail, to defeat simplistic tactics by homeless people with guns and knives. With a career dating back to the early 1970s, he is best known for "cosmic" tales and space opera; for revamping the Marvel Comics characters Captain Marvel and Adam Warlock; and for creating or co-creating the Marvel characters Thanos and Shang-Chi, Master of Kung Fu. Death and suicide are recurring themes in Starlin's work: Personifications of Death appeared in his Captain Marvel series and in a fill-in story for Ghost Rider; Warlock commits suicide by killing his future self; and suicide is a theme in a story he plotted and drew for The Rampaging Hulk magazine.The artwork was also very good, had some good looking panels and it added to the overall gritty atmosphere.
