The Batman Arkham Unhinged comics are taken right out of the Arkham City game and put you in the action.  Issue #6’s story is called, Theatre of Violence.  The story follows Tim Drake and his attempts to blend in with the criminals in Arkham City.

Tim sneaks in using some borrowed bat gear and an Arkham prison uniform.  What is Timothy looking for?  An Arkham Fight Club that he hears is sporting big muscle.  He confronts some local goons and they lead the way to his desired destination.  Once he is allowed in, he doesn’t realize what he has gotten himself into.

He is shocked to find that the big dog, or shall I say bird, behind this little dance is none other than the Penguin.  The purpose of the fight club is to join the ranks of Penguin’s mob, but first you have to prove your usefulness by killing the others. Well, as soon as the fight breaks out, Tim is proving himself very talented until a party crasher arrives on the scene.

The party crasher in question is none other than Bane and he wants the drug, Titan that Penguin has been using on some of his fighters.  Well, without a sweat, Penguin sends in his secret weapon.  What secret weapon could give Bane a run for his money?  Well, how about Solomon Grundy? This two have a great battle in this issue which allows Tim to get the hell out of dodge.  Meanwhile Grundy and Bane beat each other senseless until Bane vacates the premises.  Once Bane is gone, Grundy concentrates on the others and the Penguin is forced to leave his weapon behind.

This issue was off the chain!  I mean Grundy and Bane in an epic battle; you cannot do better than that.  I proudly give this issue a 13 out of 10 rating. This issue is definitely worth picking up.  While you are at the store, I recommend picking up issue #5 as well if they have any in stock.  If not, still get issue #6 because it rocks!  I mean, come on Grundy is in it so ‘nuff said!
