Highlight Comic of the Week Batman: Endgame Part 3

Scott Snyder once again doesn't disappoint with Batman: End Game Part 3!

If you've been under a rock and haven't been reading Endgame, the secret is out on who the villain that returned to Gotham to wreck havoc really is. In Endgame pt1, Batman is attacked by the Justice League with no warning, first by Wonder Woman then by The Flash. Batman is able to subdue the two and then Superman arrives. It's then that Batman see's the big grin on his face and realizes who's behind their mind control. Batman is surprised to discover that The Joker is alive after thinking he had died in The Death of The Family, but he's back with his new face now intact.

In End Game Pt3, the citizens of Gotham are running rampant through the city due to the new formula of Joker's Toxin.  The airborne toxin is being spread through a person's cough, sneeze, or laugh. Of course, Batman being Batman is always ready for anything thrown his way. Over the years Batman has created hundreds of cures for Joker's Toxins, but this time, none of the cures are working. Joker has added a secret element to the toxin and Batman now has to race against the clock to figure out a cure before the city is locked down and rips its self apart.


Snyder knows how to keep you on the edge of your seat with every issue. He also knows how to get the reader emotionally involved with the story and leaves them wanting more. Add that to the amazing penciling by the man himself, Greg Capullo, and there is never a disappointing Batman issue. We're barely at issue 3 of Endgame so its not too late to pickup the first two parts. Even though Batman is a hot commodity on New Comic Book Day, you can always get lucky and find the previous issues at your local Comic Shop..some will even back order for you. Batman: Endgame Part 3 is out today so go out and pick it up now!!!
