Customer review of: Batman: Hush, Vol. 1 Customer Rating: Summary: Batman gives us some twists and turns Comment: Batman started out as a dark brooding vigilante who had no problem pounding the pavement to get what he wants. Loeb and Lee seem to capture that flavor in a somewhat convoluted and complex storyline involving yet a new villain who somehow manages to coordinate the lunatics of Gotham (Crock, Poison Ivy, Riddler, Joker, etc., etc.) In addition we have Catwoman and the strange relationship with Batman taking a new twist. The story is quite complex. Batman and Catwoman team up to figure out the connection between a parade of villains and situations that seem a bit unrelated but enough subtle clues to tie in the connections. Lee's art works extremely well presenting us with broad splash panels and detailed characterizations. I was impressed but there is an argument to be said for lack of innovation. This was a monthly when first published and innovation can break deadlines -- I got that. My only pet peeve is the complexity of the story. Way too many villains and too many plot twists that make the story impossible in many ways to accept but I was so caught up in the brooding Batman coming to terms with his life that I was able to ignore the ridiculous plot threads that were explained in the end, still feel very contrived. It's still a terrific read that I found fun. More streamlined plots would have made the story richer especially with more time spent with Bruce's boyhood friend. Customer Rating: Summary: Beautiful Story Comment: As a old fan of the Batman series of comics, I was a little suspicious of "Hush" when I first saw it in a books store. Let me say that my fears were unfounded. I found myself, almost an hour later, still in the book store, closing the cover and searching for volume 2. The romance and action are all perfectly balanced, not to mention the masterful art of Jim Lee only adds to this masterpiece. Even if you don't know everything about the history of Batman and Robin, all pertinent information is explained and elaborated on. Even if you don't like Batman, this is the comic series for you. Customer Rating: Summary: batman hush Comment: HUSH is a profoundly compelling & intricate crime story. Jeph Loeb has created an exceptional suspense thriller, which becomes deeper & more mysterious as it unfolds. A true page-turner which I could not put down once I started reading it. Loeb's exceptional writing has been combined with the extraordinary talents of Jim Lee, one of the most influential pencillers ever, and inker Scott Williams, whose ability to embellish produces images that are nothing short of stunning. Colorist Alex Sinclair's contribution makes every page a great work of art in itself. Combined, these three have created images that are so detailed and captivating that after one finishes reading the books, you have to go back & dwell on every panel in order to fully absorb the remarkable amount of detail in the artwork. BATMAN HUSH is a fantastic work on every level. Customer Rating: Summary: good stuff Comment: Good story, pacing, and artwork. I especially like the glossy page presentation, it fits the work nicely. I think the art and layout give the series a sort of blockbuster or epic feel that I enjoyed while reading. Great use of background characters, I think this series managed to do what the Clooney / Kilmer Batman movies could not--present a large and varied cast or rogues without giving them a cheap or campy feel. Don't forget Volume 2 as well. Customer Rating: Summary: Good Read, Bad Presentation Comment: The story is a very good tale and the art is done by Jim Lee a very talented artist. It features several of Batman's villians including my personal favorite Killer Croc. My major problem is the only way to get the whole story in one volume is the absolute edition which is ten more dollars then the two volumes put together. Other DC stories with Absolute Editions, such as Kingdom Come, you can get the whole story without buying the absolute edition.But on story and art alone I recommend but the presentation is sloppy.
