Transitions are nearly non-existent in the pages of Batman: White Knight Presents – Generation Joker. Rating: 5 out of 5 BATMAN: WHITE KNIGHT PRESENTS – GENERATION JOKER #2 Waid and Mora are telling a superhero story for the modern age that both modernizes and pulls on the classic elements that make the DC Universe work. The big reveal behind "Newmazo" and his artificial intelligence "utopia" is one of the biggest challenges for the Dark Knight and the Man of Steel, and its a challenge conveyed so well in DC's best superhero book. Waid's characterization and Mora's artwork help to show these superheroes as gods, mythical figures that will stand the test of time. With the latest issue, we are given a focus on the DC Universe's biggest players, showing how the likes of Superman, Batman, and their allies are larger than life. I've mentioned it in previous reviews, but reviewing World's Finest can be a difficult task because it never gives you much to critique. Rating: 4 out of 5 BATMAN/SUPERMAN: WORLD'S FINEST #16 Honestly, this is the kind of Batgirls series that fans have wanted for a while and I think it delivered in spades. All in all, Batgirls was a fun character-focused series that highlighted the strength of Cass and Steph's relationship, while showing how each character is complimented by the other. The series used it final arc to wrap up one lingering plot point from its frantic opening arc, although it wasn't exactly one that the creative team really hinted at in recent issues. Batgirls wraps up with a few literal bangs, as Cass and Stephanie use a parade to track down a pair of snipers.
