- hard to grasp due to outlandish artworkWhile the story holds in this book, the artwork made it hard to follow as well as to understand. It all makes sense when you read the script notes in the back of the book, but while actually reading with the art it becomes confusing and annoying. While the artwork is at times interesting, it does not match the story in the traditional sense. Random characters are thrown into panels where you can't understand what they're doing or as to why the are even there. I bought "The Killing Joke" as well ... Read More

- Love it love it love it.admittingly, it doesn't have much violence, but it does dig deep into Arkham's history. Also, i love how you get a feel for the different characters voices with their type. Like Joker's hand drawn, crimson mess style of speech represents how chilling his voice is when heard. Plus you get a look at how Batman feels about his enemies and how they feel about being in a madhouse.

- Not happy with this version of BatmanAfter reading The Dark Knight and The Killing Joke, I had high expectations for Arkham Asylum. I was very disappointed however. Like in other Batman books and comics, Batman displays cunningness, being fearless, being athletic, and just being a bad ass hero. He did not display anything in this book. The villains did not display their specialties or twisted selves as they do in other books or comics. The drawings were interesting, not great, just interesting. The story was too short and meaningless. ... Read More

- A Really Good ReadThis is a amazing book and I definitely put it up there with the greats of batman comics like the killing joke, the dark knight returns. But I have mixed feelings on how the joker is portrayed in this book and I will admit I also have mixed feelings on the art but overall its a great book and should be read.

- Review of Morrison's Arkham AsylumThis book is an impressive psychological chronical of the characters of Batman's world. It presents a history of the asylum, and a look into the mind and world of Arkham and the modern subjects of his ward. There is an impressive cast of characters within the work--many villians I had never met before. In any case, the visual work of this novel is really its greatest feature; the photographic drawings are haunting and dark. This is a rather short graphic novel, and worth 30 minutes of your time.
