Preview: All-Star Batman #5
The battle for the soul of Harvey Dent concludes in All-Star Batman #5, out this Wednesday!
The first wild and crazy arc of Scott Snyder’s All-Star Batman is nearly at an end. It would have been a tough enough time just having to drag Two-Face out of on Gotham on the worst buddy road trip imaginable in an attempt to cure his one time friend. But Two-Face apparently knows everybody’s deepest darkest secret, and has used that knowledge to turn everybody, even friends and ordinary citizens against him!
It all comes down to this week’s All-Star Batman #5, with Penguin & KG Beast right on the tail of Batman, Two-Face and Duke Thomas. Check out a synopsis and gallery preview below:
