It's all action as the assault on Wayne Manor begins. The pacing is good, and the Talons are presented as a serious threat. I wasn't too thrilled with the attempts at taunting by the Talons, which came off as somewhat halfhearted. Overall, though, this was a well-written and entertaining story.
Great issue!
I love the story of owls it keeps you glued to the pages. The one thing I really didn't like about this issue is the change in art half way through the book. But the story was good enough to keep you reading though.
What an amazing issue! Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo have crafted an amazing story, and with Night of the Owls starting here, it's amazing! Snyder's storytelling keeps you hanging on every word written, and Capullo's artwork visually captivates you. You couldn't ask for a better story than this in the new 52. This is where it's at, folks!
