Chapter By Chapter (usually) features me reading one chapter of the selected book at a time and reviewing it as if I were reviewing an episode of a TV show or an issue of a comic. There will be spoilers if you haven’t read to the point I have, and if you’ve read further I ask that you don’t spoil anything further into the book. Think of it as read-along book club.

PART 2: KNIGHTQUEST
We’re only a few chapters away from part 3 so we need to get this current case done and have Jean Paul’s final screw-up before Bruce decides to get his cowl back. So apparently in the comic Jean Paul did have the Azrael-inspired armor by this point If I follow a recent hour-long Batman retrospective correctly though there’s no indication of it in the novelization outside of the gauntlet, which I figured he wore over the regular Batsuit.
Last chapter not-Batman had to be convinced by Alfred to act like Batman and protect former Batman from his own dumb plan, and it is a rather questionable plan given the nature and abilities of the guy he’s facing. Curious to see how this team-up will go.
We’re at that point in the novel where I start having trouble finding topics. Once part 3 of the novel happens and Bruce begins his trek back I may have more to discuss but I think I’ve dissected Jean Paul and even Bruce all I can in these intros. The story has to reach the part where the hero comes back but right now isn’t going to be that part.
