I read this series for The Question and Green Arrow, and i have and idea why Batman is here, but i cannot explain it without swearing :)

This comicbook series is about a liberterian-billionare building the floating city with the power of the slave labor. This is the perfect setup for both Question, who is an ex-libertarian and current street philosopher, and perfect for Green Arrow, his whole character is about fighting capitalism and social inequality. And there is Batman, who seems to be here for company

And i liked this comic, exept for one thing… excluding Batman… this book is too preachy with it’s ideas. I am not going here with grey morals, i very much agree with most of them. I am speaking about lines like “He’s fitting us into his narrative.” and “We are just people fighing back. Because we care.” If this two lines were said by Arrow or Question(esspecially Question) i wouldn’t had had any questions. They both are psycotic in different but fun ways. But it was said by a random guerrilla woman. Why in a middle of a shootout she would say something this simple in this overly complicated way? And that is half of the dialogue here. It just ozzes the energy of “i live in LA and i give a f%@&, look at how much f%@&s i give!” and this lines just need a good editor to either cut em or replace. That is a basic mistake that i did, and i still regretting myself for allowing it. Seriously read my Þe Orb and proove to me that last paragraph doesn’t ruin this short story

And the way the book delt with The Question is great, the writer does well in balancing between Ditko’s psycotic noir detective and O’Niel’s philosophising self-reflecting Question(even if it is still far from perfect). Also this spin-off version of the character is better than modern mainline version(i hadn’t read 52 yet btw)
