>In 1996, you thought you knew the whole story of Batman: The Long Halloween. Now, acclaimed writer Jeph Loeb presents the much-anticipated final chapter: "The Last Halloween", a captivating new mystery. Each issue pairs Loeb with one of the industry's foremost artists, creating a stunning homage to the artistry and legacy of Tim Sale. Gotham City learns to fear Halloween once more as a terrible event threatens to destroy Jim Gordon's life and puts Batman and Robin's teamwork to the test more than ever before. In a city of liars, masked vigilantes, and criminals... can anyone be trusted?
>>151043501Jesus Christ just do issue 10.
>>151043501I'm afraid to read this because I suspect it will be shit
>>151043967It is. It might be a tad bit better if it was one artist all the way through but some of the art is shockingly bad and the lack of cohesion makes it unreadable.
>>151044008Honestly should have just been risso the whole way through. The first issue is the only one that looks good.
>>151044167This is where the art goes off the rails Sad too, when it was announced Janson would do an issue I was excited. Just truly hideous work here.
>>151045007I like 70s Waller.
>>151045916>Selina FalconeFAKE
>last issue not ripped yet
>>151046994This, fuck this lame storytime board for confusing me. As if anyone wants to read this shitty story from start to finish ever again
how many fucking twists does this story have. wtf
>>151045254>Bruce beating his adoptive son with a stickWhat is wrong with you man
Bro wtf why start this if you don’t even have issue 10?
>>151048367Ngl after I read the conclusion I think I’ll go back to imagining this never happened. TLH passed away with Sale.
>>151044013Disappointing Catwoman
>>151049410Probably to cover all the issues of the maxi since it hasn't been storytimed since Issue #3 and then storytime the last issue alongside itI don't think OP expected the issue #10 to be ripped late (neither did I, DC has only 4 books out this week and only one of them has been ripped)
>>151048367Not many actually; it's quite slow moving and the entire thing meanders and only the last couple of issues actually advance the plot and even then, the story doesn't expand on them like how Harvey's wife is whoring around on him and is pregnant by one of Harvey's bastards or even the various big twists involving Selina
Loeb's talent died with his son.And I dont mean that in a cool 4chan edgy way. Something inside him faded when Sam passed away and he's never been good since
>>151051207It sucked anyway who cares?
>>151052385I think some of it is that he didn’t give a damn about marvel characters like he did DC. He didn’t do much DC work after that point either.
>>151052385Tbh as this has gone on I've really started to think Sale was a bigger part of the success than we even imagined Loeb needs an artist who can tell him to shut up and let the pages speak for themselves Lee isn't that guy coming up under Claremont, and you can look through this and see where guys like Samnee put their foot downSale clearly was one of the guys that was able to push back
>>151054609I mean people have been saying that about all their comics together for years. Even if it’s bullshit. Loeb had some great comics at DC with other artists, his Superman run and his Superman/Batman are fantastic. And not everything sale made was nearly as good as his work with loeb. They were a great team there really isn’t any justification other than people disliking loeb himself to push his narrative. That being said this mini was atrocious and it’s offensive that it even exists.
>>151043501I like the IDEA of the ending here, but it does not feel setup or earned by this mystery. And Amanda Waller showing up was so stupid.
>>151045916Another fake out again
>>151043518Bumb
>still nothing from the rippers
>>151055081I've been listening to Long Halloween and Dark Victory audio dramas and yes the art does the majority of the work.Loebs dialogue and story but its the art that sold the story.
And that's it. What did you think of it?
>>151058726Not as good as Long Halloween by a country mile but still better than most Batman comics so a solid 6 or 7/10. Serviceable if unnecessary
>>151058726It's alright but damn did that need to be 10 issues?
Someone explain to me like I'm 10 who the FUCK was Holiday.
>>151060037Gilda Dent and Alberto Falcone posed each as Holiday. Harvey Dent may or may not have also acted as Holiday as well.
>>151058707Is this a When In Rome sequel tease
>>151060102Assuming you mean Mario, Gilda and him set the killings in motion... why?

Okay
>>151058726I had hoped my assumption that it was a terrible idea to make this without Tim Sale proved wrong, that I’d have to eat my words.Unfortunately everyone who pointed out this never should have been made were right. Genuinely terrible and the multiple artist gimmick made it even worse. Fuck man I hate this comic. >>151059285Honestly? No it isn’t. Even the hush sequel is better than this.
>>151058696This doesnt address anything anon said. Sale’s best comic without loeb is the blades LOTDK 3-parter or the Superman confidential story with Cooke.Loeb has multiple good runs on multiple books without sale. Tim sale is one of my favorite artists and I hate having to point out that he has the weaker career of the two.
>>151060216Hopefully not. They need to leave TLH alone going forward rather than drag it through the mud like this. Let alone the fact that Catwoman was the worst part of the mini, none of the artists drew her or the Sale costume properly.
>>151058722This could have been 4 issues
I liked it
>>151064407>>151062737Just say bump faggot
>>151043501how many fucking subtitles does it need
>>151064641I thought it was good. Not the best, but good.
