With a wonderful nostalgic twist from Wes Abbott, Bruno Redondo and Adriano Lucas turn in a fight scene that's really, really good that leads to an epic time stalling one-on-one between Batman and Deadshot Just when it gets good, the interaction between the two characters gets even[...]

Tom Taylor's scripting is the king of this kind of characterization, giving, in particular,[...]
