Batman: Odyssey is really a nightmare to follow. It has a feeling of a nightmare being told to us. It has all the elements of a disjointed nightmare including the appearance of characters out of thin air. Bruce Wayne tells us at the end of this issue that all the clues are in to determine the next move. I think not, because like any nightmare, there is no sense in nonsense.
It’s nice to see Ra's al Ghul masterminding a new threat to Batman and the cast of characters is impressive. I just wish that the story Neal Adams is weaving actually has a point. I’m hooked so I will ride this story to the end hoping that the plot comes to a nice conclusion and I get to see more interesting characters and Neal’s great art.
