Revenge of the Red
Hood Part Two: Scarlet by Grant Morrison and art by Phillip Tan delves
deeper into what the Red Hood aka Jason Todd is up to. After a fairly
successful attack on a meeting of criminals Red Hood and his sidekick Scarlett
reveal themselves to Gotham, as it’s new heroes. Red Hood’s brand of justice
however has caught the ire of a crime lord from Mexico who has sent the
Flamingo to protect his interests in Gotham.
The story is ok in Part
Two: Scarlet but it is not phenomenal. The story goes as such: Batman and
Robin rush to stop Red Hood and Scarlet from killing one of the survivors from
their previous massacre. Batman and
Robin fail and are thus captured. At the same time The Flamingo arrives in
Gotham in a plane full of dead woman who he skinned and ate the faces from. Oh
and he shoots Red Hood in the head. So that is the story. Where is the mystery to be solved? Batman is a
detective and thus their should be some sort of mystery but it is not here.
