$5.00
VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
Written by Yoshinori Natsume Art and cover by Natsume
Acclaimed artist Yoshinori Natsume (Toguri) makes his American comics debut with this Prestige Format miniseries that presents an original Batman manga tale! There’s a new serial killer in Gotham, and he may have ties to the training Bruce Wayne acquired as a young man in Japan. Does the murderer know Bruce Wayne is the Batman?
REVIEW by Brian Fisher

I didn't approach this book with many expectations, so I was pleasantly surprised to find that I did enjoy it. A very "eastern" story, Death Mask follows the story of a killer who removes to faces of his victims. A killer who resembles a certain Dark Knight. This story is not for the faint of heart. It is very dark and very violent in its subject matter. The art, which can be hit and miss sometimes when it comes to manga is very well done and suits the mood of the story well. If you don't mind reading from right to left and in black and white and you like Batman this could be story for you.
I give it 7 out of 10 Grahams
