BATMAN #621
6.5/10
"Broken City" part 2. Here's my beef at this point - why does this story need to be told in the main Batman book? It is decent, but it feels like an escape from the primary Bat-title, something you'd expect in TEC or LOTDK. I'm wondering if Azz intentionally avoided the big-name villains since they were all used in Loeb's "Hush" arc. And my prudish streak continues as I wonder why the sexual overtones are necessary.
Plot points:
1) More murders. This time a young boy watches his parents die on the street. Does it have anything to do w/the investigation or does it just hit close to home?
2) Batman's investigation into Angel Lupo's sister's death takes him to Little Tokyo, where he gets his butt handed to him.
