Lädt ... Batman: Preludes to the Weddingvon Tim Seeley
![]() Keine Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch. For more reviews and bookish posts please visit: http://www.ManOfLaBook.com Batman: Preludes to the Wedding by Tim Seeley is a collection of stories where side characters in the Batman universe react to his upcoming wedding to Catwoman. This graphic novel collects Robin vs. Ra’s Al Ghul #1, Nightwing vs. Hush #1,Batgirl vs. The Riddler #1, Red Hood vs. Anarky #1 and Harley Quinn vs. The Joker #1. This graphic novel tells separate stories, all connected to the upcoming wedding of Batman (Bruce Wayne) and Catwoman (Selina Kyle). The Joker desperately wants an invitation to Batman’s wedding, but his partner in a very one-sided and dysfunctional relationship, Harley Quinn, will have none of that. Nightwing (Dick Grayson), the best man, is picking up the engagement ring when Hush shows up. Ra’s Al Ghul is trying to get Damian Wayne (Robin) back, since he’s now worried about his new step-mother, while Batgirl (Barbara Gordon) and the Riddler play a game of wits. On top of all that Anarky (Lonnie Machin_ makes fun of Red Hood (Jason Todd) because he is a “failed” Robin. The lead up to the Batman/Catwoman wedding is fantastic, one of the best graphic novel reads in the past several years. I was looking forward to read Batman: Preludes to the Wedding by Tim Seeley since I really enjoyed Tom King’s story-line. I knew this would be a pointless wedding cash grab before I even got this graphic novel, I have been reading comics for decades and know how this works. But you know, sometimes these cash grabs are very enjoyable, silly, and just pure fun. This collection, five issues which differ in quality, is a mixed bag. I didn’t think any story was absolutely stunning and certainly this isn’t a “must” to read to stay in the comic-loop. That being said, I enjoyed the book and didn’t feel as if is completely useless like many other tie-ins. The art differs in every issue since they are drawn by different artists, still it’s solid and I enjoyed the panels very much. Even though these are separate runs, I did feel the art was cohesive, I have no idea how that work out, but it did. Even though this is a marketing ploy, I still enjoyed this book – I credit Tim Seeley for raising this collection up a notch above a mere money grab. A mixed bag, but a fun graphic novel leading up to the wedding. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Wedding bells are ringing in Gotham City...and the criminal underworld is determined to silence them! Following The Joker's discovery that Batman and Catwoman are getting married, Gotham City's villains jump into action. If they are going to lose one of their own, it's not going to be so that their greatest enemy can be happy! Spinning out of the pages of DC Nation and leading up to Tom King's Batman Vol. 7, Batman: Preludes to the Wedding is a collection of five one-shots starring Batman's friends and foes, all trying to celebrate--or sabotage--the Dark Knight's big day. Harley Quinn knows a thing or two about dysfunctional relationships. When she hears that her old flame is trying to get in the way of a happy life for one of her best friends, the Maid of Mischief tracks The Joker down to give him a piece of her mind--and maybe a few blows from her hammer, too. Meanwhile, Nightwing fulfills his duty as best man by picking up the engagement ring when Hush interferes; Ra's Al Ghul attempts to recruit Damian as the heir to the family business; Batgirl and the Riddler engage in a battle of wits; and Anarky taunts Red Hood as a failed Robin. Writer Tim Seeley (Grayson, Nightwing, Green Lanterns), teams up with an all-star cast of artists to expand the world of Tom King's critically acclaimed series, Batman! Collects Robin vs. Ra's Al Ghul #1, Nightwing vs. Hush #1,Batgirl vs. The Riddler #1, Red Hood vs. Anarky #1 and Harley Quinn vs. The Joker #1. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

They were all interesting, mostly because of the through line of the Joker looking for his invite to the wedding and therefore telling a good number of bad guys about the wedding, and they then go after those in the Bat Family because of it.
My favorite story was, surprisingly, the one with Damian/Selina near the beginning of the TPB. Especially the very end of the story, just touching enough, but not too touching. Made me almost like Damian.
The Harley/Joker confrontation as usual was both good at times and depressing at others.
But, overall I liked the stories a lot. Onto the wedding.
I received this book via Netgalley thanks to DC Entertainment. (
