Det 814. spoilers

[EmmaFrostSlavingFanBoy]

Anyone else slightly disappointed in Det. 814? How did Haddie die? Was she pregnant? What about Moose? What the heck was the body and how was it invovled in the Waterfront Project?

A good book that sort of went downhill the last 3 issues.

I liked it.

I thought it got stronger as we actually went somewhere in the plot (and we saw Batman too). The plot went nowhere for the middle part of the story then wound down to a conclusion.

Very stagnant story.

In 813 he found out the odd man didn't kill Cassie. How he did, I don't know. That's Batman for ya. I wasn't aware that Haddie died. But I came in half-way through so I could be not remembering Haddie.

I thought Haddie got away (or the Hispanic that Bruce told Alfred to pick up, she was Haddie, right?).

I took the body was the mass group of Whatever the hell they were chasing Batman. The ex-cop wandering the hospital and killing whoever it was on the ER table.

Could've been the bearded man that the ex-cop killed as well. He could have been the body or the head. Or the ex-cop was the body or the head. Or whatever that non-sense was.

The Waterfront Project was that underground church was and that goo pit was in it as well. The body (as I understand it) was connected to it through one man. Who was connected to the church and sacred pit.

That was a direct outlet to the sea, too. So basically you could put the guys in the goo and send em out to whoever wanted more "goo people".

This story had a non-conclusion conclusion. But I think it fit the story well. It's one of those f---ed up stories where you have no idea what happened in the end except for finding out that Cassie was killed by her mother and her body put in the incinerator.

And lots of other very f---ed up things were happening (the sudden madness of the citizens to kill, rape, etc.)

Though the ending with the Bat-signal staying on for at least a week against the clouds. I almost half expect the Spectre's "shadow" to surround the thing. Then the lightening strike was eerie like that, too.

Haddie was that rich girl who Tim liked. Her death--I remember now--from a drug overdose sort of started the mystery.

Very convoluted story that did not need to go all super-natural. Just have a teenage pregnant-girl baby mill ring, a crooked mayor in the waterfront project, and organized crime infiltrating the dock workers union (the Moose character and his wife who actually very interesting characters), crooked cops invovled with the mob and the mayor in the waterfront project and somehow connect Haddie and Cassie and the baby-mill in it. Oh I don't know the mayer got Cassie pregnant and Haddie knew about it since she ran in fast circles so the major had Cassie and Haddie killed and the mob found out about it and blackmailed the mayor or maybe one of the crooked cops gave Haddie the drugs that killed her in return for favors. It would have been a much better story without the supernatural stuff. The best batman stories don't have that.
