Summary
Bruce Wayne’s mission as the Batman has only been underway for a year or so， but he can tell he’s making a difference in this city。 Unfortunately， he’s made some powerful enemies–and not just among the colorful maniacs called “super-villains。” All the traditional power brokers of Gotham resent the disruption the Batman has brought to town… and it seems one of them has a plan to neutralize him。 There’s a second Batman haunting Gotham’s rooftops and alleys–and this one has no qualms about murdering criminals， live and on tape。 With the entire might of the Gotham City Police Department and Gotham’s rich and powerful coming down on his head， Batman must find this imposter and somehow clear his name…but how can you prove your innocence from behind a mask？

This was okay but inconsistent art and a weak story twist took it down for me。 I thought it was heading in an interesting direction but then eh…

Loved the drawings and how the colors would change depending on mood and present time or flashbacks。 Very enjoyable and fast read。 Great story wasn't boring or stuck on one part for a long time。 Loved the drawings and how the colors would change depending on mood and present time or flashbacks。 Very enjoyable and fast read。 Great story wasn't boring or stuck on one part for a long time。 。。。more

How many alternate versions of Batman does the world really need？ At least this one more because Tomlin proves that you can take the same old elements and create whole new mythology that feels as fresh and captivating as if this were the original。 It's a dark tale that digs down into the nitty-gritty details of what it would actually take for Bruce Wayne to do what he does night after night as Batman， showing that his actions have consequences and those consequences can come back to cause havoc How many alternate versions of Batman does the world really need？ At least this one more because Tomlin proves that you can take the same old elements and create whole new mythology that feels as fresh and captivating as if this were the original。 It's a dark tale that digs down into the nitty-gritty details of what it would actually take for Bruce Wayne to do what he does night after night as Batman， showing that his actions have consequences and those consequences can come back to cause havoc in Gotham。 I love the idea of forcing Wayne to have therapy with someone that knows him both as the child of trauma and the Dark Knight。 This simple element adds a great way to analyze and dissect what's going on in his head （and his heart） while the plot gets darker and darker with the introduction of the title's imposter and little nuggets of possible future stories I'd love to read。The art is in the dark， artistic style that's becoming signature with DC's Black Label。 It fits the story to a T and displays Andrea Sorrentino's impressive mastery of panel arrangement。 There are some truly creative spreads in this one。 But the prize goes to Jordie Belaire's colors because it's the almost minimalist， yet saturated color palette that makes the emotions and adrenaline jump from page to page in excitement。 Overall， I urge naysayers doubting if there really needs to be a new Batman origin/early years story to give this one a chance because they will unquestionably walk away singing its praises。 Very happy thanks to NetGalley and DC Comics for the early peek at the collected volume！ 。。。more

Batman The Imposter ReviewI received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review。 Batman: The Imposter starts off about a year into Batman’s crusade against crime in Gotham City。 This is supposed to be a grittier， more realistic approach to the character。 It did look and feel a little more raw。 The artwork was definitely stark in places。 I enjoyed the approach this book took and would definitely read another Batman story by this author and artist team。

Interesting take and I really like the art and panel layouts。 There is a hint of copaganda bs with some subtle social commentary about defund the police which made me laugh and kind of took me out of it， but otherwise stellar。

This was a good read。 It dives into Bruce's character- which I love。 There are a lot of mental health topics， which is great！ One of my favorite parts of this novel。 Unfortunately， some of the words were blurry so I couldn't read them。 Still， I enjoyed the novel。 Definitely could see it taking place in the world of The Batman （2022）。Thank you NetGalley and DC Comics for the ARC。 This was a good read。 It dives into Bruce's character- which I love。 There are a lot of mental health topics， which is great！ One of my favorite parts of this novel。 Unfortunately， some of the words were blurry so I couldn't read them。 Still， I enjoyed the novel。 Definitely could see it taking place in the world of The Batman （2022）。Thank you NetGalley and DC Comics for the ARC。 。。。more

One of the better Batman comics to come out in the past several years。 It’s being touted as a “jumping-on point” for fans of the Matt Reeves movie （though whether any of this is in continuity with that universe remains to be seen）。 Dark and gritty without succumbing to the nihilism of the Snyderverse。 Strong YEAR ONE and GOTHAM CENTRAL vibes， with a few f-bombs thrown in for the grownups。 Why not five stars？ The page layouts were overly complicated， something I’ve noticed with the artist’s other One of the better Batman comics to come out in the past several years。 It’s being touted as a “jumping-on point” for fans of the Matt Reeves movie （though whether any of this is in continuity with that universe remains to be seen）。 Dark and gritty without succumbing to the nihilism of the Snyderverse。 Strong YEAR ONE and GOTHAM CENTRAL vibes， with a few f-bombs thrown in for the grownups。 Why not five stars？ The page layouts were overly complicated， something I’ve noticed with the artist’s other work。 It might be difficult for new comics readers to follow—I had trouble with some pages， especially one that was purposefully upside down （and impossible to turn in the app I was using）。[Review copy provided by DC Comics/NetGalley。] 。。。more

*Maybe a 3。5But I was a little underwhelmed with this。 Of course my main interest was that Tomlin is writing the new BATMAN flick so I wanted to get a taste of what he’s like。 The premise is very similar to what THE BATMAN sounds like。 And I will say that the element I enjoyed most from this was his emphasis on character。 Of course， with aid by Sorrentino’s work。 He was also why I was drawn to the book。 Anyway， through his dark and blatant panels of Bruce combined with Tomlin’s cynical one-liner *Maybe a 3。5But I was a little underwhelmed with this。 Of course my main interest was that Tomlin is writing the new BATMAN flick so I wanted to get a taste of what he’s like。 The premise is very similar to what THE BATMAN sounds like。 And I will say that the element I enjoyed most from this was his emphasis on character。 Of course， with aid by Sorrentino’s work。 He was also why I was drawn to the book。 Anyway， through his dark and blatant panels of Bruce combined with Tomlin’s cynical one-liners， you really get what this Bruce is about。 Why he’s doing it and where it comes from。 Dangerously obsessed with his work。 The plotting， however， was weak。 I thought the reveal of who the Imposter was， was underwhelming and should’ve done a better job at honing in on the mystery element to the story — so that we can be impacted by the reveal at the end。 Instead， there’s a bunch of exposition on the history of his identity that was pretty much tacked on in a page or two。 I guess in terms of adding something new to the Batman mythos， I was expecting more but character is where this book shines。 。。。more

My thanks to DC Entertainment and NetGalley for an advanced copy of this superhero graphic novel。The Batman is such a force of nature that it is hard to think about him as a rookie， all new to the I am the Night thing， and figuring how to get through the city he is sworn to protect。 There have been a Year One， a Year Two， even a Year Zero， which showed him training， and finding his way。 In Batman: The Imposter， writer Mattson Tomlin and artist Andrea Sorrentino not only capture Batman in his beg My thanks to DC Entertainment and NetGalley for an advanced copy of this superhero graphic novel。The Batman is such a force of nature that it is hard to think about him as a rookie， all new to the I am the Night thing， and figuring how to get through the city he is sworn to protect。 There have been a Year One， a Year Two， even a Year Zero， which showed him training， and finding his way。 In Batman: The Imposter， writer Mattson Tomlin and artist Andrea Sorrentino not only capture Batman in his beginnings， the show Gotham City and its populous acknowledging the existence of the Dark Knight， and what it might mean for all of them。 A year into his calling Bruce Wayne is finding that it is not easy being the Caped Crusader。 Wayne finds himself being blackmailed by Dr。 Leslie Thompson to meet with her to help Bruce get passed his trauma and stop trying to kill himself engaging in his crazy night life。 Alfred has left， Jim Gordon has been fired， and he might be falling in love with a police officer who is investigating the vigilante Bat， but shares the same tragic circumstances of seeing her parents killed。 In addition， powerful business interests are seeking to stop the Bat， who is bad for business， and finally an imposter is killing criminals， while dressed in the Batman's cape。This is a great， very realistic take on the Batman with alot of ideas that make total sense scattered throughout the story。 Also the dialogue is excellent， the way Batman explains what he does， his inner and outer voice being different。 Every character has a different speech， and it is quite clear in the comic， and really helps the story move。 Yes there is another anti-Batman but again it makes sense， and flows really well。 The art is very moody， and dirt， with some really beautiful splash pages， and action scenes， but sometimes， especially near the end it can be a little dark。 I had to read a few pages over to see what had happened。 Also the cover gallery is really very gorgeous。 Great story， good art， and a Batman that seems fresh and interesting。 Again there are a lot of good ideas that are in here， the story moves well and a few of the characters I would like to see more of。 Bruce Wayne is driven， and yet not the Batman that he becomes later in the comics。 One of the better stories featuring Batman that I have read in awhile。 。。。more

I was initially drawn to reading this given that Tomlin has worked on the new R-Patz Batman film。 I can't say that this is my favorite Batman that I've read。 To be honest I get tired of seeing this kind of overly gritty art。 However， I think that the darker style suited the writing。 That being said， the art just didn't really flow and didn't really capture the emotional beats of the characters。 So perhaps， I'm just not a fan of this artist。 I was initially drawn to reading this given that Tomlin has worked on the new R-Patz Batman film。 I can't say that this is my favorite Batman that I've read。 To be honest I get tired of seeing this kind of overly gritty art。 However， I think that the darker style suited the writing。 That being said， the art just didn't really flow and didn't really capture the emotional beats of the characters。 So perhaps， I'm just not a fan of this artist。 。。。more

Sorrentino's art felt like Batman was Gideon Falls' vigilante， the twist was kinda predictable and I really don't know why every writer thinks he should tell Batman's origin but It was a good story。 Taking Batman to the shrink was a good catch， when the Bruce Wayne side kicked in the plot got very likable。 I think exploring this "elseworld" has a lot of potential。 Sorrentino's art felt like Batman was Gideon Falls' vigilante， the twist was kinda predictable and I really don't know why every writer thinks he should tell Batman's origin but It was a good story。 Taking Batman to the shrink was a good catch， when the Bruce Wayne side kicked in the plot got very likable。 I think exploring this "elseworld" has a lot of potential。 。。。more

3，5/5Could be worse， could be better too。 The artwork seemed to me to be less good than in other Sorrentino's stuff， but still pretty great。 The story was interesting， dark， but I missed something that would make me really feel the characters' emotions and get their actions。 The positive thing that I loved about this is how Batman seriously got kicked and hurt。 3，5/5Could be worse， could be better too。 The artwork seemed to me to be less good than in other Sorrentino's stuff， but still pretty great。 The story was interesting， dark， but I missed something that would make me really feel the characters' emotions and get their actions。 The positive thing that I loved about this is how Batman seriously got kicked and hurt。 。。。more
