It has Batwing fighting villains, working as his secret identity, and getting some advice from Batman. The Lost Kingdomstarts out a bit generic. If the series continues this upward trend of quality, it could very well be a comic book to watch out for. By the end of the book, I found myself genuinely invested and was ready to read more about this new hero and the land he protects. While this is happening, new mysteries are introduced and the main conflict gets more enjoyable. However, as it progresses, it begins to dig into the backgrounds and motivations behind the characters. 1: The Lost Kingdom, by Judd Winick, is a bit generic and doesn’t feel any different from the plethora of other comics out there with “bat” in the title. The initial volume in the first-ever Batwing comic book is not perfect but makes a compelling argument for the series and the characters within it. As long as the next volume continues to deliver on these positive qualities, this series may be worth following. At this point, the main storyline gets more enjoyable, some mystery drives forward interest, and Batwing becomes a better character all around. Though the book starts out a little rough, it quickly recovers and begins making a serious case for itself.

Overall: This is a positive start to a series with some decent potential. There are a few places where the book’s visual quality drops. Most of the artwork suits the book well.Ĭons: The first two chapters are a little generic. Some mystery keeps the story interesting and leaves the reader wanting more. Batwing is a unique character with a compelling backstory. Pros: The main conflict gets better as the book progresses.
