100 Days of Batman, Day 53

Goin' Downtown Parts 1 and 2 is a story written by Chuck Dixon and art by Mat Broome set in the Batman: No Man's Land universe. Bane has entered Gotham with the intention of becoming the post apocalyptic city's king. However Bane does not appear to be acting alone but rather in the service of an unknown party. Bane appears to manipulating the "rulers" of Gotham against each other to make his own rise to power easier.

Bane is an interesting character in the Batman mythos playing a pivotal role in one of the most historic comics in both Batman and DC history. It is unlikely that his role be nearly as large as it was in The Broken Bat run but he is a catalyst to set up the remaining parts of the No Man's Land story. Goin' Downtown is a fun story with good characters that are extremely important to the Batman mythos making this A WORTH YOU TIME book. The power play he has made getting the rest of the Gotham gangs to attack Two-Face is awesome. A fun two part story that makes me excited to see where No Man's Land will end.
