The Nocturna storyline: should it be collected?

[shaxper]

Absolutely not. Moench on Batman in the 80's was awful. Better time be spent finally putting out trades of his Master of Kung Fu run or even his "Batman-lite" run on Moon Knight than that drivel.

Funny. It's one of my favorite Batman runs of all time. Guess we're all entitled to our opinions.

If anyone would like to read my issue-by-issue review of the entire Nocturna saga, you can view it here as part of my "Batman 300 and Up" review thread. It starts five posts down.

I do feel that the story arc has its ups and downs, and though it took me a while to start liking Nocturna (her initial pretentiously Gothic demeaner really turned me off), she thoroughly won me over part way through, and I felt she was done a tremendous disservice when she was killed off at the end of the run.

The Thief of Night, on the other hand, I NEVER liked him...

She was in a Battle for the Cowl issue, I believe Stephanie Brown was chasing after her. Those were two-part issues, Gotham Gazette: Batman dead? And Gotham Gazette: Batman is alive!

In pre-Crisis, Jason had really started to consider her like a mother to the point of resenting Selina Kyle for being Bruce's no. 1 love because he wanted a family, and Bruce didn't love Natalia as much as he did Selina. Selina was never going to provide the mother role for Jason like Natalia did.

i never new that from jason.....i thought he liked selina......but he did get really close to nocturna......i never understood how that happened..?
