Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #6 completes the DC Comics/IDW Publishing crossover that basically reads more like a fan-service rather than a serious visual reading. Don’t get me wrong here, I personally enjoy the overall story and art quality this mini-series has offered.
James Tynion IV does do justice of balancing the seriousness of the climatic and suspenseful parts of the story and the humor the Turtles and Casey Jones presented. The fight sequences between Batman and Shredder and Ra’s and the Turtles are above average though obviously highly predictable. The best part the writer pulls off is the father-and-son moment Bruce Wayne and Damien Wayne bring in at the end pages that really makes Father’s Day worth anticipating.
Sure, there are some moments that can be expanded, such as Damien’s confrontation with the rest of the ninjas and even Master Splinter’s fight scenes, in addition of Casey Jones’s brief return to his dimension/universe and returning back to the DC universe with April O’Neil. But due to the constraints the creative team confronted, we have to rely to our imaginations to fill in some of these plot holes. Yet still, this finale is a good read.
