So now we come to the third and so far, final comic book series to be based in the Arkham Universe. In this one, we see the aftermath of the Joker's death (oops, spoilers!!) and the downfall of Arkham City. Batman is feeling troubled when he becomes the one that kills the Joker (or rather the Joker kills himself after accidentally losing the cure that Batman was holding when he pounced onto him). But that gets cut short when Harley Quinn (who is now in full control of the Joker's ranks) starts causing havoc all over Arkham City, a plan in which the Joker himself set in motion. Thus leading to the events of the DLC known as Harley Quinn's Revenge (which by the way is a great DLC, but I won't be reviewing it, at least for a while yet).
In my honest opinion, this is one of those comics that isn't action packed but rather shows a troubled and vulnerable superhero dealing with the death of someone he knows very well, this case being the Joker and I personally thought that it was a very dark and creepy story that does well to give us some closure for the DLC and the overall game itself, with some help from the other two comic book series as well. 9/10
