When records of a man named Blackfire show up from fifty years ago, it's hypothesized they could be for this Blackfire's father. But you have to keep in mind, when we first see Batman, he’s already endured a week of torture (we know he’s been beaten and stabbed), starvation, and been drugged semi-regularly. I promise we’ll talk more about the ending later, but I want to focus on the homeless attacking criminals for a second because I think this is a really raw, disturbing, and unexpected aspect of this book.

I had heard about Batman: The Cult but I hadn’t a clear idea of what was about, but I knew that if I have the chance to get it, I haven’t to hesitate about it. Batman suddenly finds himself the prisoner of a mysterious religious cult led by Deacon Joseph Blackfire. This is the weirdest Batman story I have ever read, and I have very mixed feelings about it (some spoilers ahead).
