Mehso-so

Did not expect that to be a 'meh' experience, but nothing really grabbed me. Nothing felt fresh, more like old reruns without the benefit of nostalgia. I guess you could call it classic themes, but to me they appeared tired. Apparently not really a fan of Tim Sale's art style either. Welp, to each their own preferred Batman comics. 🤷🏼‍♂️

RamsFan1963 Yeah I agree this was pretty meh. The Long Halloween is much better, but if you don't like Tim Sale's art, you might not like it either. 4mo
Robotswithpersonality @RamsFan1963 Think I saw the animated film adaptation of that one, not sure I've read the graphic novel... let's just say I won't be prioritizing it! 💁🏼‍♂️ 4mo

Character design continuity: It's not Alfred's physical appearance that must remain consistent, but rather his SASS. 💅🏻

I‘ve checked this out of the library the last two Octobers because it looks fun and it takes place on Halloween. Maybe this will be the year I actually read it? #Scarathlon2022 #PhotoPrompt orange

Tbh, I‘m not a huge fan of Batman. But I enjoyed this novel. It was broken into 3 different stories. One with Scarecrow, one with Penguin and one with the Mad Hatter. Batman even went through the Christmas Carol haunting is on Halloween! All these stories are set on Halloween night/weekend so I‘m counting it for a Halloween read.

Ah, Batman on Halloween... Seriously what could be better than this?? LOVED the artwork in this one! And with an All-Star cast including Poison Ivy, The Penguin, The Mad Hatter, The Joker and (the master of fears) The Scarecrow this made for a very good read! Would definitely recommend.

A collection of 3 stories set on Halloween starring several of everyone‘s favorite villains, and of course Batman (and Alfred, who is almost my favorite). I liked the last story best, a Halloween version of A Christmas Carol. #TeamStoker

Managed to get a Halloween read in before having to leave the house. We have a weather advisory for the next few days and it's pretty cold and blustery out right now. Looks like #Winteriscoming. 🤷🏼‍♂️

This was pretry good. It's the same creative team that did Batman Long Halloween, and while that story was better, this one was still lots of fun too! 👍
