Nightmares continues and in Batman #67 and this is going to be a unique experience for most comic book fans. Typically the story is told in a combination of word bubbles and art, with the communication between characters, or their internal monologue, enhancing the story. In this issue, Lee Weeks carries the weight of the story with his art, telling a tension filled tale that is almost entirely a chase scene that makes it's way across the rooftops of Gotham. In the end, the only words to be uttered are Batman's recollection of the event, asking The Joker why he did everything. We can debate whether the gag works, or if there is a desire to know more, but it definitely causes the reader to pause and think about comic books themselves.

iRate Reviews is the show where I go over specific comic books from my pickup that deserve to be talked about and review them in a little bit more depth. This doesn't mean that they are always good though. Some comics are lessons in what NOT to do.
