Summary

Gotham City's worst criminals--Joker, Riddler, Ra's al Ghul, Clayface and others--have emerged to throw Batman's life into utter chaos。 However, these villains are part of a much more elaborate, sinister scheme to destroy the Dark Knight once and for all, one headed by a mastermind much closer to Bruce Wayne than any foe before。。。

Gotham City is infected by a crime epidemic and all of Batman's enemies have emerged to throw his life into utter chaos。 But little do they know that they're all pawns of the villainous Hush in an elaborate game of revenge against Bruce Wayne。 Pushed past his breaking point, Batman will need to use more than the world's greatest detective skills to uncover the true identity of this mysterious mastermind before it's too late。

Written by Jeph Loeb (Batman: The Long Halloween, Batman: Dark Victory) and artist and DC Publisher and CCO Jim Lee (Justice League, Suicide Squad) stack the odds against the caped crusader in a story that redefined Batman for a new generation!

Hush is a Batman story that has aged well。 This is what you get when you pair DC's most popular artist with its most popular character, making the most of Lee's idiosyncratic pencils by letting him illustrate almost all of Batman's popular allies and rogues。 The story by Loeb dives deep into Batman lore, except, incidentally for Hush, who is an entirely new character。 Hush is a Batman story that has aged well。 This is what you get when you pair DC's most popular artist with its most popular character, making the most of Lee's idiosyncratic pencils by letting him illustrate almost all of Batman's popular allies and rogues。 The story by Loeb dives deep into Batman lore, except, incidentally for Hush, who is an entirely new character。 。。。more

Great detective story with plenty of action。 I think I enjoyed the Long Halloween story a tiny bit more, but the depth of characters & dialogue in this one was excellent!! Can’t wait to read the sequel。

One of my favorite Batman tales。 Great story by Jeph Loeb and amazing art by the always extraordinary Jim Lee。

This was my technically my first Batman comic (If you count The Killing Joke as a Joker comic) and was such a blast read, the story was thrilling and the mystery was page turning。 Jim Lee's art was incredible, this is easily the best format to own the story in。 This was my technically my first Batman comic (If you count The Killing Joke as a Joker comic) and was such a blast read, the story was thrilling and the mystery was page turning。 Jim Lee's art was incredible, this is easily the best format to own the story in。 。。。more

Batman: Hush portrays Batman as the detective he deserves to be。 Batman's investigation into the new, strange behaviors by his rogues gallery is a mystery in the vein of Batman: The Long Halloween 。 This is no coincidence: Jeph Loeb wrote both。 In my opinion, Hush deserves to be seen as one of the best Batman comics, though there are some rushed subplots which knock its rating from a clear five stars to four, though I would have preferred to give it four and a half stars。 Its drawings, by J Batman: Hush portrays Batman as the detective he deserves to be。 Batman's investigation into the new, strange behaviors by his rogues gallery is a mystery in the vein of Batman: The Long Halloween 。 This is no coincidence: Jeph Loeb wrote both。 In my opinion, Hush deserves to be seen as one of the best Batman comics, though there are some rushed subplots which knock its rating from a clear five stars to four, though I would have preferred to give it four and a half stars。 Its drawings, by Jim Lee, Scott Williams and Alex Sinclair, alone count for three of the five stars。 Beautifully drawn, wonderfully written: give it a try。 。。。more

Hush - Volume One is probably my favorite Batman story, which is a little strange since I did not care at all for Hush - Volume 2。

3。5 stars Art: 4。5/5Story: 3/5That turned out to be。。。quite disappointing。 Honestly, the only thing that kept me reading was the art。 And to some extent the Batman-Catwoman storyline - which, again, came to a slightly disappointing end as well。The central "mystery" of the villain tormenting Bats was executed pretty terribly - let's be honest, we all knew who it was from the outset - and the motives of said villain were even more terrible。 3。5 stars Art: 4。5/5Story: 3/5That turned out to be。。。quite disappointing。 Honestly, the only thing that kept me reading was the art。 And to some extent the Batman-Catwoman storyline - which, again, came to a slightly disappointing end as well。The central "mystery" of the villain tormenting Bats was executed pretty terribly - let's be honest, we all knew who it was from the outset - and the motives of said villain were even more terrible。 。。。more

Among the best stories in the Dark Knight canonTerrific, distills everything great about Batman into one epic tale。 Mystery, romance, action, and a right's gallery of villains and allies。 Among the best stories in the Dark Knight canonTerrific, distills everything great about Batman into one epic tale。 Mystery, romance, action, and a right's gallery of villains and allies。 。。。more

An absolute blast to read with a few too many threads that get in its own way。 Artwork is amazing - note: come to find out Jim Lee's work on X-men inspired the design for the animated series that I loved watching。 I thought the artwork was familiar!

As with the other Loeb-written Batman arc I've read, The Long Halloween, Hush basically cycles through the rogues gallery with a broader story intended to justify those guys all working together。 Though this one has quite a bit more going for it, with better setpieces, and a better foil to Wayne。 I probably won't ever call this one of my classics but I can see why it's on the lists。 As with the other Loeb-written Batman arc I've read, The Long Halloween, Hush basically cycles through the rogues gallery with a broader story intended to justify those guys all working together。 Though this one has quite a bit more going for it, with better setpieces, and a better foil to Wayne。 I probably won't ever call this one of my classics but I can see why it's on the lists。 。。。more

Jeph I think you could write more intelligent books。 This story has been told again and again and again。 If you are going to write about a 'superhero' there is only one 'SUPERMAN'。 You should get your own ideas then write your own comic book about a superhero。 I would call it plagiarizing。Batman has no superpowers。Batman can't fly。Batman can not leap tall buildings。Batman is not faster than a locomotive。 Jeph I think your a good writer but you need to find your own ideas。Be creative。Come up with Jeph I think you could write more intelligent books。 This story has been told again and again and again。 If you are going to write about a 'superhero' there is only one 'SUPERMAN'。 You should get your own ideas then write your own comic book about a superhero。 I would call it plagiarizing。Batman has no superpowers。Batman can't fly。Batman can not leap tall buildings。Batman is not faster than a locomotive。 Jeph I think your a good writer but you need to find your own ideas。Be creative。Come up with a brilliant story。Then I will buy your comic books。Robert Sherriff 。。。more

I love Batman。 I know this is considered a classic story line, but I feel like Hush is a little convoluted。 I don't want to get into spoilers, but I think the eventual reveal, some of which isn't even that clear in this collection, is a bit ridiculous。 I love Batman。 I know this is considered a classic story line, but I feel like Hush is a little convoluted。 I don't want to get into spoilers, but I think the eventual reveal, some of which isn't even that clear in this collection, is a bit ridiculous。 。。。more

Solid Batman Story (No Spoilers)What I loved: The artwork and the fight scenes。 One fight scene in particular was really awesome。What I liked: Vast array of characters。 There was a lot that was packed into this, but I would have liked it to be a bit longer so they could've developed the story just a bit more。What I didn't like: The ending felt a little lackluster。 That's not to say it was bad, but it could've been better。 Some of the dialogue was a bit cringy too。 I'm also not sure what one char Solid Batman Story (No Spoilers)What I loved: The artwork and the fight scenes。 One fight scene in particular was really awesome。What I liked: Vast array of characters。 There was a lot that was packed into this, but I would have liked it to be a bit longer so they could've developed the story just a bit more。What I didn't like: The ending felt a little lackluster。 That's not to say it was bad, but it could've been better。 Some of the dialogue was a bit cringy too。 I'm also not sure what one character in particular had anything to do with the story。 None of this makes Hush an entirely skippable read, especially considering it takes no time at all to read AND the artwork alone is top-tier。 However, I'm not putting this in a top 5 Batman graphic novels。 。。。more

This was a first for me - reading a graphic novel/comic。 I really enjoyed it。 It was hard to get into at first, since it kind of jumps around and it doesn't have much depth to it, but after talking with the friend that recommended it to me and lent the copy to me, I found myself pulled into the story and imagining each panel as if I were in the room with Batman, Robin, Catwoman, Superman and all the others in this book。 This was a first for me - reading a graphic novel/comic。 I really enjoyed it。 It was hard to get into at first, since it kind of jumps around and it doesn't have much depth to it, but after talking with the friend that recommended it to me and lent the copy to me, I found myself pulled into the story and imagining each panel as if I were in the room with Batman, Robin, Catwoman, Superman and all the others in this book。 。。。more

Batman: Hush is the iconic story that sees Batman's foes play a part in a deadly game, with a mysterious gamemaster。 Written by Jeph Loeb, and drawn by Jim Lee, this edition collects issues #608-619 of Batman, and an interlude from Wizard, and is everything you could possibly want from a Batman story。 It's a detective story, it's a romance, it's a thriller, it's an action piece, it's a character study。 This is a story that ticks all the boxes。 I have always maintained that Under the Red Hood is Batman: Hush is the iconic story that sees Batman's foes play a part in a deadly game, with a mysterious gamemaster。 Written by Jeph Loeb, and drawn by Jim Lee, this edition collects issues #608-619 of Batman, and an interlude from Wizard, and is everything you could possibly want from a Batman story。 It's a detective story, it's a romance, it's a thriller, it's an action piece, it's a character study。 This is a story that ticks all the boxes。 I have always maintained that Under the Red Hood is my favourite Batman story, but Hush is definitely giving it a run for its money。 The story unfolds brilliantly over the course of the run, with Loeb leaving clues for you to find, and try to solve the mystery alongside Batman。 This is extremely well balanced with the way he dedicates time to exploring the characters behind the masks so that this isn't just a Batman story but also a Bruce Wayne story。 It's a very human story that plunders the depths of Bruce's psyche, as all the best story ought to do。 One of my favourite things to see in any Batman story is Bruce's weakness' because that drives home the truth at the heart of this character。 He isn't an alien, he doesn't have superpowers, he's just a man with a lot of money and a desire to affect change。 That is something everyone can relate to, whether they're hanging out on rooftops dressed as a bat or not。 Loeb's art is the perfect accompaniment to this, particularly the way in which he draws the flashbacks。 The watercolour washed vibe of those flashbacks created a gorgeous contrast with the traditional look of the present-day pages。 To me, this really suggests the way that memories can become a little more indistinct over time, and I loved it。 I loved everything about this book and only wish that I could read it again for the first time。 I can't imagine how torturous it must have been to have to wait a month between issues and salute those who survive that trial。 Luckily, it was clearly worth it。 。。。more

An excellent Batman story with some really cool moments, character interactions and goddamn gorgeous artwork。

Charlotte (Buried in Books)

I thoroughly enjoyed this。 To start with the artwork is gorgeous, especially the flashbacks (they have a beautiful watercolour effect)。 The story keeps you guessing just enough, who is it that's pulling the strings。 Are Bruce's feelings for Selina really real? Or is it part of the game that someone's playing with him。I read this mainly on kindle, my eyesight struggles with small type。 I think this one that I'll re-read quite a bit。 I thoroughly enjoyed this。 To start with the artwork is gorgeous, especially the flashbacks (they have a beautiful watercolour effect)。 The story keeps you guessing just enough, who is it that's pulling the strings。 Are Bruce's feelings for Selina really real?
