The Rundown: The hunt for Vandal Savage and a time traveling egg will take the Dark Knight to the old west.

After a force mysteriously removes Hal from the adventure, Batman and Hex are confronted by Savage and a pack of Ninjas. When the egg reacts again, the result might be the end of Batman.

The Story: The plot and the action in this issue are getting more interesting. Brian Michel Bendis is taking this story in some new directions and I want to see where it goes. The dialogue continues to try a little too hard and is not as clever as it is trying to be, but the story is solid and engaging.

The Art: Nick Derington is offering some impressive visuals in this issue. The art is expressive, detailed and exciting.
