About this ebook

The sequel to the critically acclaimed BATMAN: THE LONG HALLOWEEN, DARK VICTORY continues the story of an early time in Batman's life when James Gordon, Harvey Dent, and the vigilante himself were all just beginning their roles as Gotham's protectors. Once a town controlled by organized crime, Gotham City suddenly finds itself being run by lawless freaks, such as Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze, and the Joker. Witnessing his city's dark evolution, the Dark Knight completes his transformation into the city's greatest defender. He faces multiple threats, including the apparent return of a serial killer called Holiday. Batman's previous investigation of Holiday's killings revealed that more than one person was responsible for the murders. So the question remains: who is committing Holiday's crimes this time? And how many will die before Batman learns the truth?

Ratings and reviews

Only problem is that there are a number of pages which are not accessible through Google books. And additionally pages which feature two page layouts are cut in half. Overall the DC comics app probably offers a better reading experience. But the plot and content in this wonderful Noir story really cannot be faulted.

Why would you put a book for sale with pages missing? If this is not fixed, will seek a refund. Does this happen with a lot of comics on Google Play?

This book is far longer than I thought, foot graphics and excellent story.
