Batman Strikes #28 - DC


Another "funny" book from the DC line of Johnny Comics. But how "funny" can it be with the Batman, the Joker and the Ventriloquist's dummy? But then who's the "dummy" now? Sorry, couldn't resist. Basically, the Joker has absconded with the "dummy". Which really sends the Ventriloquist in to an emotional frenzy. Batman pursues them, but it seems as if the Joker and Scarface have Batman on the ropes. But then the Ventriloquist comes to his rescue. Batman goes back to the "cave" to get some armor, and between him and the Ventriloquist, they foil Joker's plans. Wesker and Scarface disappear, but the Batman takes the Joker back in to custody. Again, another one issue story. Simple, concise and without very much wasted time. Batman always seems a little violent for the audience these books are aimed at, but, it gives me a good read so I can't complain much.
