Batman • Superman – World’s Finest #12

/ / Comics

While I enjoyed the first two issues of this title, there wasn’t enough there to keep my interest long term. However, after reading Batman • Superman – World’s Finest #12 I think I may have given up on it prematurely.

The episode is also notable for several Gotham City references including the unmasking of the evil speedster as a Batwoman (Javicia Leslie) from the future in a reveal that lacks the pop the writers where intending.
