There are two reasons for this not being 5 stars for me, though I really enjoyed it. One is that The Black Mirror impressed me so much that I was expecting something just as awesome out of this. Two, I'm not fully up to speed on Batman Inc. which kind of left me confused about who's who in this Gates of Gotham story. Otherwise, I enjoyed the simultaneous story telling and the villain looked like dude from Hellboy, which I dug. Great read though, Scott Snyder has moved up in my list right up behind Grant Morrison and Frank Miller. That was after Black Mirror though..
