Batman Hush : Batman 619

Loose ends and tangents

Batman Hush

It is the last issue of a series that has me seeing the best Jim Lee art I've ever seen! Better than his X-Men issues and better than his WildC.A.T.S. issues. Heck, these are even better than his New 52 issues. This series is so deserving of the absolute edition that they gave it.

Since the beginning, Batman is being observed by a mysterious bandaged figure, obviously the mastermind. This issue is the big reveal. And yes, this mysterious figure is Hush.

Amazingly, this is the least exciting issue of the bunch. Not really anti-climactic, it feels more like an issue-long epilogue. I'd still pick it up because a lot of the loose ends are neatly taken cared of here; plus some tangents for future storylines and permanent changes because of the arc are established.

That's it for us and that's it for Hush. Get it? That's if for 'Hush', oh, nevermind.
