Time for Scarecrow
to mess with Batman's head using a "Handful of Dust" by Paul Jenkins
and David Finch. The Dark Knight had a psychedelic experience
fighting Dr. Kane, and so did I reading the dialog; not sure whether
it was intentional, but very little of what Scarecrow said made
sense to me. The second part of the issue featured the Man of Steel,
who came to lend a hand and ended up getting his butt kicked.
It was a nice
surprise having Superman do not just a cameo, but a full appearance,
and that is what I like best about this title: you just never know
who's going to pop-up. Both sequences were superbly pencilled by
David Finch, and the colors by Jeromy Cox were just amazing. Back to
the dialog, or lack thereof, it was so scarce that it was a quick
read, and the story relied mostly in artwork. Okay issue, but not
the best.
