Skeptical at first, but it ended up being great.

I'm generally wary of movie tie-in novels for superhero properties, but this one surprised me with how great it is. It nails the tone of Tim Burton's Gotham City, building off of the what that film had set up.

What really surprised me was how it expands on the events of the first movie - if you've ever wanted to know how the Joker was able to take out the Batwing with a single bullet, this book has the answer. How was the Joker able to roll out Smylex so quickly? We got you, fam.

There's also some fun set up for Batman Returns! I found those details to be charming.

JJM seems to have taken his experiences working in expanded universes like Star Wars and applied that skill here. The story fits snuggly within the Batman 89 canon and left me wanting more.

I like fan content like this - it was a creative little narrative with some entertaining headcanon. as for the narration, I liked it well enough. You can tell they really cared. Blue kinda sounds like the Canadians in South Park. I couldn't unhear it once I noticed. kept expecting him to say "Buddy" at the end of his lines. This isn't a complaint - just a funny observation.

Regardless of what is happening, there is no variation in tone or inflection in the narrator's character voices. It didn't bother me so much at first but it really got to me after a while. It is especially noticed when a character is singing, which happens more than you might think. The engaging story makes up for the narration's shortcomings, though.

Interesting characters in an interesting world. There is a motivation driving the characters forward, but the narrative is built around discovering them and the galaxy they live in. It's about the journey, not the destination.

It's hard for me to call this an "audiobook". While it fits the description - each "episode" is an adaption of the corresponding issue of Neil Gaiman's comic - it feels like more than that. The cast is perfect, the score and sound effects add depth. It's an audio experience worthy of your time.
