I've seen @thelastaxolotl@hexbear.net post about it but I put it off. So I picked it up today and it's good folks. Bruce Wayne as a working class dude who makes his own tech is a nice fresh spin on it. Plus he's an absolute beast of a man, so that's bonus points if you like hunky dudes catgirl-salute

It is really good. Especially since it's essentially a 2020s take on the 90s EXTREME comics, but in a good way. It's so over the top and incredibly ludicrous in its look and feel, but pulls it off exceptionally well without it becoming too cringey or edgy. I enjoy that Bruce is working-class, and is an incredibly gifted engineer which makes for some awesome things that Batman can orchestrate and do. For my money Absolute Wonder Woman and Martian Manhunter are still the best Absolute books, but Batman and Superman aren't too far behind.

How do you rank Absolute Evil? It's the most commie-coded one that I've seen.
