This is actually a pretty fast moving installment in the Fugitive storyline from the early 's! Bruce is still on the run since Batman: Bruce Wayne Fugitive Volume 03 called out as a murderer but we soon find Batman wanting to finally clear his name. With the help of his family and some rough justice, he's able to finally get the answers he needs to be free. When we find out who Batman: Bruce Wayne Fugitive Volume 03 killer is, all things break loose, and Batman has a I mean, you have Greg Rucka and Ed Brubaker writing Batman. When we find out who the killer is, all things break loose, and Batman has a plan one might not expect! Good: The art is early 's for sure, but I love it. I also enjoyed Bruce here, as a man on the verge of losing everything, he seems desperate and tus creates some great tension filled beatdown scenes. The family moments are well done, and surprisingly there's some funny moments to be had. I also liked the fight at the end a lot. Bad: The storyline seems to have wrapped up, yet there's another volume? Also, even if read volume 1, there's some loose story threads that don't make too much sense. It'll make you go "who's that? Overall, a fun followup to a good volume 1. I have no clue where volume 3 will take us, but this has been a nice surprise. View 2 comments. Batman: Bruce Wayne, Fugitive is a story arc that Batman: Bruce Wayne Fugitive Volume 03 through the various Batman family comic book series that was published by DC Comics. The storyline centers on Bruce Wayne being charged and arrested with the murder of Batman: Bruce Wayne Fugitive Volume 03 Fairchild — his current girlfriend. Unable to stay put, Bruce Wayne escapes from prison and abandons his alter ego and become Batman full time. Bruce Wayne has been arrested for the crime of killing his girlfriend Vesper Fairchild and is on the lam. It is up to Batman and his allies to find out who did it. Greg Rucka, Judd Winick, Devin Grayson, and Ed Brubaker wrote the majority of the trade paperback and for the most part, I rather enjoyed the narrative. Some issues were better than others were, but overall it was somewhat well planned and written. It took a while, but it is finally discovered that Bruce Wayne was framed, but Batman: Bruce Wayne Fugitive Volume 03 did it remains a mystery and only those closest to Batman believes this. With so many pencilers, it is rather difficult to grade the overall artistic flow. For the most part this hodgepodge of pencilers has similar styles with few exceptions and that the Batman: Bruce Wayne Fugitive Volume 03 of the artistic style flowed rather smoothly with a few sudden jerks. May 01, Shaun Stanley rated it liked it. These issues focus on a storyline where Gothamites are falling ill and dying from poisoned cocaine. What seems to be a side story in the investigation ends up providing clues to Bruce to solve his mystery. Reading this series has been been a breathe of fresh air because it centers on Batman and his allies detective prowess. Jan 15, Anchorpete rated it it was ok.

Other offers may also be available. Fort Worth, Texas, United States. So I was disappointed that they just magically fix Batgirl's problems 5 minutes in.

This study examined popular American action/adventure comic books from the year 2002, comparing the portrayal of men and women. Four categories of action/adventure comics were defined and the five best-selling titles in each category were identified. Six issues of each title were analyzed for textual and visual stereotyping.
