The Rundown: An attack against an ally will have a connection to a ghost from Bruce’s past.

In the past, the young hero calling himself Prion is called to Wildcats gym to begin training alongside Batman, Black Canary and Green Arrow. Bruce continues to be wary of the young hero especially after he finds himself unable to track him.

In the present, the young girl from the cemetery has managed to throw Oliver out of a building, but he finds a way to land safely before he and Batman go after the child. A child they discover is incredibly skilled, connected to Prion and possessing an unknown power. Power that allows her to escape before being found by a familiar face.

The Story: Taylor continues to craft a thrilling, engaging mystery in this arc. I continue to enjoy how the pieces are fitting together and that there are several layers to this mystery left to be explored. I really enjoyed the action and thrills of the chase as well as Batman’s commentary on Green Arrow. I look forward to seeing what happens next in this story arc.

The Art: Janin crafts beautifully detailed and visually exciting art throughout the issue. I really love the character designs and action.
