Alfred resurrects Batman from the dead after the events of Crimson Mist. Batman becomes full on evil vampire and straight up murders his entire rogues gallery. This should be great. There are people's heads getting ripped off and strung together on a rope by Batman. But Moench adds to much Dark Shadows type melodrama and Kelley Jones art is so off-putting. Batman has about 30 ribs in his chest. These storytellers are awful. It's hard to believe they were the main Batman creative team for several...

Wow. That's pretty much all I thought after the final panel of Crimson Mist. This is the darkest Batman of all, the one that honors his name and becomes a predator of criminals and innocents alike. We start Crimson Mist with the agony of Batman, condemned to exist in Limbo and to thirst for blood for all eternity. At the same time, we see that Gotham has fallen victim to the Penguin, Two Face, Killer Croc, The Riddler, Poison Ivy, and many more, and that Alfred and Gordon are doubting their deci...

This was the most entertaining entry in the Batman Dracula trilogy but that is not a recommendation of any description. The series is full of weird art that verges on caricatures, complete with a unnecessary verbose script throughout. I can't remember who recommended this elseworlds series of books but I do not agree, this hasn't aged well at all. I can't imagine anyone paying the full $24.95 listed on the back of the book and been happy with their purchase.

Unrelenting conclusion to an epic story, as Batman is revived by his loyal butler Alfred in a desperate attempt to eradicate the scourges of Gotham City. Violent, brutal and out of control, Batman's bloodlust has fully corrupted his sense of justice, and the crimefighter hero the city has admired and feared is now a monstrous creature, feeding on Gotham's scum and insane and tenuously on the verge of devouring the rest of humanity.A frightening image of what Batman could have been.

A very interesting plot twist to the Batman story. I am not a big fan of the art used but the story is very good. Recommended

A horrifying vision of Batman's time playing college football. It was terrible when he blew out his ACL

Batman: Crimson Mist is an Elseworlds imprint. Written by Doug Moench and penciled by Kelley Jones. It deals with the final act as Batman as a vampire as he is reawakened to save Gotham City once more, but he becomes out of control and it's up to Alfred Pennyworth and Commissioner Gordon to stop him. It is the third part in a trilogy based on old Universal Picture and Hammer Film Production horror films.Gotham is in the grip of a crime wave. Alfred removes the stake from Batman in an attempt to

Loved it. Love the art, loved the story... great, creative comic.

Some people ask why Batman bothers apprehending super criminals and turning them back over to the police or Arkham Asylum. After all, the likes of The Joker, Two-Face, Poison Ivy, and the other rogues in Batman's rogue's gallery are going to break out and rape, pillage, and plunder again. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, maybe not a year from now. But it's inevitable, and people are going to suffer because at their hands. It would be better, people, for Batman to kill them. Wouldn't it be ni...

I don't know what I expected.

I got this vampire trilogy all together and enjoyed the first one despite how dumb it could be. It never felt like it took itself seriously and was just reveling in the traditions of pulp horror and its direct source material -- Dracula. Its two sequels, however...'Bloodstorm' was a mess of breasts and misogyny, with a nonsensical love story between the literal Catwoman and vampire Batman taking center stage. 'Crimson Mist' goes in the opposite extreme: Blood and guts.Moench was one of the most

Easily the most violent of the three, an even the most shocking. Reminiscent of the first run of The Mask on Dark Horse. A little overindulgent with the narrations, but quite a fun and well-rounded read. It brings the saga full circle in an interesting way, exploring a unique component of madness within vampiric lore.

One of the worst batman comics ever

Did not know that it was a trilogy. It was nice seeing an unhinged batman and him just battling within himself was interesting. There just needs to be a refinement done to this series, because as cool as it is and it's pretty freaking cool and goth, it needs refinement and it's tough to say exactly what that is.

The Batman Vampire trilogy comes to a close! So the story has all of Batman's villains bust out of Arkham and in desperation, Alfred decides to bring Batman back to stop them and he then goes on a killing spree! This series was definitely one of the Elseworld books I enjoyed a lot, so what did I think of this third entry? The story and writing were good enough, as it's a bittersweet ending to the series. It was oddly satisfying to see a Batman who just doesn't waste time and just kills all of hi...

A solid end to a very fun trilogy. I only wish it could have lasted longer. I was curious as to why there was never any mention of other superheroes besides Batman in this Elseworld. I was really hoping we'd get some acknowledgment of Superman or Wonder Woman. I would have loved to have seen vampire Batman duke it out with the Justice League. I would have liked a bit more build-up before Batman started massacring the villains but I can't complain too much. Moench and Jones are a phenomenal team....

Following the events of Bloodstorm, Batman has changed and become what he hates the most, EVIL. Batman is on a murderous rampage because of the thirst for blood. This story has a ton of rogues and its super fun. It was cool to see Batman as more of an anti-hero then a good guy. 8/10 awesome story awesome characters. Brings a really nice conclusion to the series.

I didn't like this as much as Bloodstorm, but it was still fantastic. The Batman lore fits impeccably within the world of horror. There's a lot of incredible imagery here. Love it.

BATMAN: CRIMSON MIST (4/5)Epilogues are a sad thing. This one is particularly sad. Almost melancholic, in a way. Especially when the last page kicks in, that's when you start philosophing about life and its meaning. Few books can do that. It also depends on the reader of course, but generally few books can do that. Even fewer comic books.So, here is the end. By the way, have you noticed that both "Red Rain" and "Bloodstorm" have a feeling of finality in their last pages? As if there never meant

This may be the best Batman story I've read. I advise readers to read parts 1 and 2 of the trilogy for a better understanding of the plot. This is on a different DC Earth (43 I think) so the ending opens up a new story line that should be followed up. This should be made into a movie. I loved it!
