Comic Book Review of 'Batman: The Return Of Bruce Wayne # 1 '

So as the title says, I have never read a single lick of Batman. 'Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne #1' is my first issue. Ok, I can hear your boos and hisses but I just have to say, I am not a superhero comic book guy. I spend most of my comic book reading time concentrating on horror and other non-superhero stuff.

Enough said about me. I was pleasantly surprised by this book because of its gritty nature. Dirt, blood and action were pretty much the high points for me. The only really short coming in this book is that it starts a bit slow and packs the meat in at the end. Otherwise it was very good. I was comfortable knowing that I didn't have any idea about the back story (e.g. Final Crisis) and guess what... to me it didn't matter. Grant writes a story not just a superhero comic. 

All Batman fans will buy this but if you're not a Batman fan or you just don't think you would enjoy this type of thing, maybe this is the issue that you should pick up. You never know, maybe you will be a fan soon. See you on issue #2.
