Review:
Batman #8

“Night of the Monster Men: Part 4,”
by Tom King, Steve Orlando, and artist Riley Rossmo, takes place
right after the latest Detective Series. Nightwing and Gotham Girl
are still monsters and now Batman, Batwoman, and the others are
trying to get them back to their normal selves. They, obviously,
don't want any harm to come to them. Batman has figured out the cause
of the monsters, it's Venom from Bane. It seems like there may not be
a way to change these monsters back to people, until Duke discovered
that they could use Dr. Strange's technology against him and inject
new cells into the people infected (therefore destroying the
mutation).
They were able to change Gotham Girl
back to her normal self, but so far they haven't been close enough to
inject Nightwing with this serum. The comic ends with Batwoman in
danger, due to her trying to get Nightwing to stand down. Even though
there are many comics where a main character dies, I think Batwoman
is going to be safe in the next issue. It would be too soon after
Robin's “death” for her to die. Although, it wouldn't be the
first time a comic surprised me if they did kill Batwoman off.
The Verdict: I'm glad that they
found a cure (which I knew they would eventually) to reverse the
mutation. I'm curious to read the next issue, to see what happens to
Batwoman. I'm sure she's going to be fine, but I also know that it
wouldn't be the first time that a main character was killed. We just
have to wait and see what the next issue brings!
