All Star Batman: My Own Worst Enemy Review

Finished reading All Star Batman: My Own Worst Enemy, writer Scott Snyder returns to write Batman for a new series which starts with Batman on a road trip from hell. The book opens to a diner on the outskirts of Gotham as Batman comes crushing through the window while fighting Firefly and Killer Moth who have come for Two Face as Batman has planned to take the villain to an old home which is 498 miles away in hope to find a cure of Harvey. However with the appearance of the two bug inspired villains along with Black Spider immediately after suggests that this road trip is not going to be easy, as substantial cash reward has been offered to keep Batman from taking Two Face to their destination. The final story of the book sees Duke on one of his first missions with Batman as Bruce is assessing on what sort of hero Duke will be as the two find themselves fighting against the killer Victor Zsasz. Overall this was a great book as it put Batman into a different and very intriguing adventure for Batman with how he has to vend off multiple villains to reach his destination while also allowing time for some great interactions between Batman and Two Face along with some insight to the history between the two of them. The Duke centric story does a good job in delving into his backstory and show how he's slightly different to previous partners and sidekicks that Batman has. The art throughout the book is amazing as John Romita Jr's art for the main story brings some amazing visuals with the action, locations and some tweaks to some villains designs all work extremely well. While the art by Declan Shalvey for the duke centric story works extremely well with how the the art style focuses more on the characters. 8/10.
