Batman: The Long Halloween: The Last Halloween #1 Review: A Chilling Next Chapter
In May, DC created quite a stir within the comics community when they revealed that Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale’s Batman: The Long Halloween was getting a follow-up series titled Batman: The Long Halloween: The Last Halloween. This new ten-part mystery is set to unfold from the events of the 2021 Batman The Long Halloween Special, which had connections to the original classic. Some critics felt that the special lacked cohesion with the much-loved, groundbreaking The Long Halloween. However, any minor flaws in its predecessor are soon overshadowed by the arrival of The Last Halloween. The first issue of this series is skillfully crafted and serves as a compelling continuation of the story that not only maintains the original’s atmosphere but also lays the groundwork for an engaging, soon-to-be iconic Batman tale.
