BatGirl #28 Review




BatGirl #28
Silver...eh VanHelsing ?!

Hi ho Silverrrrrrrrrrr....sorry lol Silver is a new vampire hating Gothamite! The most interesting part about him is the fact that he is a bit crazy, he thinks the Bat family are blood suckers of the night. He even sees BatGirl, in his distorted vision, sucking the blood of some bad guys that Strix put a beating on, but this guy is truly off of his rocker! The back bone of the issue is that Strix and Batgirl are strolling around town looking for a little girl that has been kid napped. What kept me interested as i was reading through the panels was Silver, he is clearly a man of money who has a mansion and drives around in nice cars but why is he convinced that the bat family are vampires? What is his back story? Why does he seem like he is absolutley insane? Inside silvers mansion he has a wall labeled Freedom Fighters with pictures of the joker, harvey dent and the penguin, so this guy has to be a bad guy, but he seems to think hes doing right?! Im confused, im not sure if i like it or not, i dont know if i want to know more about him or i want him to go away.

   Over all it was a solid issue, i like seeing batgirl and strix running around town getting into all sorts of situations and mishaps, but im not completely sold on Silver. I also LOVE the cover art, i bought this issue on the strength of that.

3.5/5
