This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it, click here。 The only thing I didn’t like about this was that Bruce just threw away Selina over saying 1 word wrong。 It lines up with his character but it left me feeling uneasy with the ending。

Idk, even with the plot holes and clunky plot elements (like Harvey wearing the same trench coat and bandages as Hush, I still really enjoyed the arc。 If anything the arc is great for the one issue devoted to Bats really contemplating if he should kill Joker right then and there in that alley, and while the appearance of Gordon at the alley asks you to suspend your disbelief (even with the later explanation given), the emotional pay off stemming from the dialogue between Bats and the Comish was Idk, even with the plot holes and clunky plot elements (like Harvey wearing the same trench coat and bandages as Hush, I still really enjoyed the arc。 If anything the arc is great for the one issue devoted to Bats really contemplating if he should kill Joker right then and there in that alley, and while the appearance of Gordon at the alley asks you to suspend your disbelief (even with the later explanation given), the emotional pay off stemming from the dialogue between Bats and the Comish was excellent。 Idk。 Sue me。 。。。more

This book was the most desired Batman story for me, in 2016 I saw a 1-3 pages preview which I picked up from local comic book store , and since then I WANTED to read and have this masterpiece in my collection。 I’ve been looking to buy it up to 2020 , reason: I’m not a native English speaker so I continuously was looking for Russian translated version( dud not succeed)。 By 2020 I already moved to USA for good , started relationships with American woman , what improved my English and gave me a gre This book was the most desired Batman story for me, in 2016 I saw a 1-3 pages preview which I picked up from local comic book store , and since then I WANTED to read and have this masterpiece in my collection。 I’ve been looking to buy it up to 2020 , reason: I’m not a native English speaker so I continuously was looking for Russian translated version( dud not succeed)。 By 2020 I already moved to USA for good , started relationships with American woman , what improved my English and gave me a green light to finally read what I wanted to for so long 。 By now I have very decent library, but Batman:Hush was my goal and will stay my #1 book in here。did 。。。more

amazing。 finished it within a few hours。 i loved how they incorporated all the villains into the comic, whether they had actual cameos or if they were involved in flashbacks

Matthew Marsili

95% very good and hush was such a good villain and the twist and turns that happened got me baffled。

One of the more fun comics I read, the art was fantastic and the story was decent。 I had two major problems with it though, the story goes by so fast that the characters don't have time to breath and be showcased, second much of the dialog felt shallow。 One of the more fun comics I read, the art was fantastic and the story was decent。 I had two major problems with it though, the story goes by so fast that the characters don't have time to breath and be showcased, second much of the dialog felt shallow。 。。。more

Had to make a new shelf we shall see how many get added to it but ya the comic is so much better than the movie

Jeph Loeb goes back to the pot boiler formula that worked for him in "The Long Halloween" and "Dark Victory," but this is really just a vehicle for Jim Lee's super cool art。 There are some sensational developments in Loeb's story and some good scenes, but it's not the best of his Batman material。 Jim Lee's the real star here。 Too bad he doesn't work on good books like this anymore。 Jeph Loeb goes back to the pot boiler formula that worked for him in "The Long Halloween" and "Dark Victory," but this is really just a vehicle for Jim Lee's super cool art。 There are some sensational developments in Loeb's story and some good scenes, but it's not the best of his Batman material。 Jim Lee's the real star here。 Too bad he doesn't work on good books like this anymore。 。。。more

What a wonderful graphic novel。 Loved the art, and the story had some pretty interesting twists as well。

A plot based on deception: to make it work Batman has to become the worst detective of all time! He is tricked, confused, deceived and doesn't understand anything of what's happening。 The formula on how different villains appear became predictable very soon, and I feel like it was stretched too much。 Good art though。 A plot based on deception: to make it work Batman has to become the worst detective of all time!

I find myself in two minds with respect to this story: on the one hand, Loeb delivers an outstanding thriller which, as usual, doesn't untangle until the very last minute。 He manages to keep the tension throughout the whole book。 However, on the other hand, the story introduces many characters, with little depth。 While this does make it quite fast paced, it makes the story shallower。 I much prefer the approach he takes in The Last Halloween, where he evolves the characters much more。 Other than I find myself in two minds with respect to this story: on the one hand, Loeb delivers an outstanding thriller which, as usual, doesn't untangle until the very last minute。 He manages to keep the tension throughout the whole book。 However, on the other hand, the story introduces many characters, with little depth。 While this does make it quite fast paced, it makes the story shallower。 I much prefer the approach he takes in The Last Halloween, where he evolves the characters much more。 Other than that, a very enjoyable story。 。。。more

Holds up pretty well。 Finished in one sitting。 The only thing I disliked about the Deluxe edition is that the art work on the initial pages sort of spoils the end but it was a great read nevertheless。 Curious about how much of this plot will play out in Matt Reeves' The Batman movie。 At least the trailer confirms the similarity of the plots but I think there might be connections to the Court of Owls storyline too。 Holds up pretty well。 Finished in one sitting。 The only thing I disliked about the Deluxe edition is that the art work on the initial pages sort of spoils the end but it was a great read nevertheless。 Curious about how much of this plot will play out in Matt Reeves' The Batman movie。 At least the trailer confirms the similarity of the plots but I think there might be connections to the Court of Owls storyline too。 。。。more

Jim Lee is one of the best working comic artists and this is his magnum opus。 Engaging storytelling that manages to completely up the stakes with every entry and pit Batman against every big name in his rogues’ gallery without feeling overwhelming or bloated。 A masterpiece。

Danielle

2。5 stars。 So much going on, most not necessary。 I enjoyed the writing and various scenes with certain characters (the depiction of Harley in this was strong) but it lacked consistency。 Jim Lee's art saved face for the messiness in some of the storyline。 Underwhelming ending。 2。5 stars。 So much going on, most not necessary。 I enjoyed the writing and various scenes with certain characters (the depiction of Harley in this was strong) but it lacked consistency。 Jim Lee's art saved face for the messiness in some of the storyline。 Underwhelming ending。 。。。more

Charada, Hera Venenosa, Batman e Superman se unem nesse clássico repleto de mistério e reviravoltas。 Uma das inspirações do novo filme do homem-morcego, com Robert Pattinson。

Incredible art and a compelling storylineThis story graphic novel held my attention throughout and I found myself reading a little every day。 The art is excellent, some panels flowing so easily that I blew through them, while others were so incredibly details that I'd spend a few minutes just taking it all in。 Usually when a story involves so many characters it becomes confusing and convoluted but each one of them had their own place in the story, and I found myself smiling after each one popped Incredible art and a compelling storylineThis story graphic novel held my attention throughout and I found myself reading a little every day。 The art is excellent, some panels flowing so easily that I blew through them, while others were so incredibly details that I'd spend a few minutes just taking it all in。 Usually when a story involves so many characters it becomes confusing and convoluted but each one of them had their own place in the story, and I found myself smiling after each one popped up。 I felt the ending was a little off-kilter, which I find with many comics。 They always feel like endings without an end, if that makes any sense。 Overall I see why this is one of the more celebrated Batman stories, and I had a very easy time reading it on my Kindle and phone。 。。。more

Revisiting HUSH always brings me Joy。 I can´t even count with two hands on how many times I have returned to this excellent story and artcraft by Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee。 It is for me one of the best starting points if you want to turn somebody into a Batman fan。Maybe it´s not the most practical origin tale story。 But if you know Batman, you know Batman。 And with this story you get a look and meet over half of his classic rogues gallery amongst getting lots of hints of past events that you´ll want Revisiting HUSH always brings me Joy。 I can´t even count with two hands on how many times I have returned to this excellent story and artcraft by Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee。 It is for me one of the best starting points if you want to turn somebody into a Batman fan。Maybe it´s not the most practical origin tale story。 But if you know Batman, you know Batman。 And with this story you get a look and meet over half of his classic rogues gallery amongst getting lots of hints of past events that you´ll want to check up on later and discover once you´ve finnished this modern day Classic。 。。。more

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。
