Ummm....where's Poison Ivy? Wasn't she the latest recruit besides Katana on the last Birds of Prey issue? o_O

Also Joker with a new henchgirl? Harley Quinn won't approve of this!

Look Batgirl, I cut myself! Hah heh eh heh, because you're dead

'Oh Brother' indeed. DC you're trying too hard to be 'edgy' (pun intended).

*facepalm*

No, Finch is trying to hard to be edgy. He's like the poor man's Jim Lee with an added dollop of darkness in his style and a teeny tiny dab of Paul Dini in there to come up with his storylines. DC just approved this and let it free on an unsuspecting public because they need to keep him around.

And yes, compared to the stellar side-mission he stars in within Arkham City, this interpretation of Zsasz is a complete joke.

That scene with Zsasz reminded me of last month's Dark Knight issue where Two-Face said "Two-Face no longer Batty Boy. You can call me One-Face now."

Would it be going too far to say *most* of the baddies in this book feel like complete jokes of their actual selves? Cause they're certainly coming off that way.

It's called 'Finch is writing the plot and doesn't really understand any of the Batman villains besides how hardcore and badass they can be' and his desire, as a 90's kid, to do some of the most stupid things possible with these characters.
