100 Days of Batman Day 14, August 9th. 2016

Batman: The Black Mirror continues to be creepy with Detective Comics #874. However, in this issue the focus shifts from Batman to Commissioner Gordon. Having been summoned to the Gotham Aviary by Detective Bullock, Gordan sees video surveillance of his son, James Gorden. A son who has a strange if not disturbing past and has arrived in Gotham claiming to be rehabilitated, but  Commissioner Gordon is not so sure.

We have another creepy yet slightly more disturbing issue with Detective Comics #874. Oh and surprise surprise this is also A MUST READ issue. It has the creepiness factor, great art fitting the tone, and it also introduces me to a character who I didn't know existed. That character being of course James Gordon, son of Commissioner Gordan. Scott Snyder does an excellent job of conveying that something is just not quiet right with this young man. You feel disturbed reading about him from the moment the book starts to the very end. The one thing I find myself asking is: How does this link back to "the dealer"? With several more books before the story ends I am confident Snyder will connect all the dots.
