Summary: Released in 1996 to 1997, Batman The Long Halloween was one of DC's most popular titles in the year the mini-series was released in monthly installments. I vividly recall Wizard Magazine's enthusiasm as they ran many articles speculating on who "Holiday" was. Now ten years after it's initial run, DC has given the story the "Absolute" treatment. The result is what you can expect from the Absolute editions. A first rate production, the color is crisp, the pages thick, the extras include an interview with creators Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale. Again, it would have been nice to see some of Loeb's scripts, but the inclusion of the series proposal and their discussion of the series striking covers makes up for the lack of scripts (for me it does anyway). If you are a fan of The Long Halloween, or Tim Sale's art, this is a must have. I wonder what the next Absolute Edition will be...Dark Victory perhaps?

Summary: It's nice to see the bad guys of earth 3 again. Growing up and reading comics from the 60s, I miss the different Earths (1,2,3,Prime,etc). Morrison must miss those times as well as you can tell he likes writing for characters that don't get attention. The story is alot of fun and the art is good. Me, I'm more of a Alex Ross, Ditko, Kane or Perez fan, but the art doesn't distract and, at times, adds to the story. Enjoy!
