DC Comics
Written by Ed Brisson

Colors by Rex Lokus
Letters by Clayton Cowles
The Rundown: Ghost-Maker confronts his former partner and Clownhunter is given a choice.
An injured Ghost-Maker is confronted by Phantom-One and Clownhunter while the rest of the team remains captured. As the rest of Batman Incorporated work to free themselves and confront Phantom-One’s team, some interesting truths are revealed.
At the same time, Clownhunter has to decide between killing Ghost-Maker or stopping Phantom-One and Ghost-Maker reveals the truth behind their last mission together.
The Story: Brisson delivers an entertaining conclusion to this particular arc, but there are a lot of things that felt incomplete. The resolution between Ghost-Maker and Phantom-One felt rushed, but there were some satisfying moments. I like the continuing conflict being created in the series and it will be interesting to see where the story goes from here.
The Art: Timms creates some dynamic and beautifully detailed art throughout the issue. I love the action and the look of the world.
