The Rundown: The team goes on a dangerous mission when Professor Pyg declares war on his associates.
Something extremely valuable has been stolen from Professor Pyg and he wants it back. Something he is willing to go after his colleagues in the criminal underworld to retrieve. Something Riddler finds out too late as his base is burned to the ground by a rampaging Pyg who wants his item back.
Ghost-Maker and a small group of Batman Inc. members head to Gotham to investigate both the theft and find Pyg himself. A task that will split an already fracturing team. As the team investigates the theft and gathers clues, Ghost-Maker finds Pyg’s hideout just as the criminal himself tracks down the people who took from him.
The Story: Brisson crafts a thrilling and entertaining story in this issue. I liked seeing Ghost-maker with an actual agenda for his team and the tension between him and Clownhunter continues to be interesting. Pyg’s inclusion in the story was well done and I liked him as the antagonist. The twist at the end is definitely enough to make me interested in seeing what happens next.
The Art: Bandini delivers some great art in the issue. The look of the city is perfect and the characters are visually dynamic throughout.
