Powerhouse creative team Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo (Batman: The Court of Owls, Dark Nights: Metal) conclude a decade-long partnership with the Caped Crusader in Batman: Last Knight on Earth.

Twenty years in the future, Bruce Wayne wakes up in Arkham Asylum. Young. Sane. And...he's never been Batman. To piece together the mystery of his past, the Dark Knight embarks on a sprawling quest through this unknown world, meeting futuristic versions of former friends and enemies, including a grisly traveling companion--the Joker's head. Somehow still alive, Joker's decapitated head becomes Batman's ghoulish guide through the landscape of the devastated DC Universe. But to unravel the cause of this terrible future, he'll need to track down the unspeakable force that destroyed the world he once knew. This could be the last Batman story ever told...

A swan song for Snyder, Capullo, Glapion, and Plascencia on Batman

Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2020

Verified Purchase

In 2011, Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo started to write and draw what would become one of the best runs on Batman. While the New 52 was a horrible era in DC for many, most comic book fans would gravitate towards the Batman run as a consistent source of quality and great storytelling from 2 creators at the top of their game. Fast forward nearly a decade later, and DC finds itself in a sort of flux. Batman has just ended his 85 issue run of depression, Superman is being written by Bendis, and Wonder Woman can't get a consistent voice/writer for more than a dozen issues. DC Rebirth started out as an amazing idea, allowing characters to go back to a simpler era before the new 52, but it quickly got convoluted due to clashing ideas and delays that led to the current status quo. It is out of this that Scott Snyder decides to return to Batman to tell what he calls the last Batman story, along with his partner in crime, Greg Capullo. And what a job this dynamic duo created. While this will not be the last Batman story written by Snyder and drawn by Capullo (as of writing this review, Death Metal is still solicited, which is a sequel to Dark Nights Metal), it damn well feels like it is. The story follows Batman at the end of the line, waking up in a post-apocalyptic DC Universe without memory of how it got to be that way. Determined to bring the world back to the way it was, Batman teams up with a surprising companion and journeys throughout the hellscape he woke up in to solve the mystery. The idea is pure Batman, giving him a mystery to solve and showing his unbroken will towards making things right. The highlights from Snyder here are the character moments he gives towards many of the DC Universe: his relationship with Alfred, Wonder Woman, the Batfamily, and many others are all given their moments to shine, and it's great, showing how Batman trusts his allies rather than building contingency plans to hurt or stop them all the time. The other cool thing that Snyder brought to the story is how the world changed and what the world is. Tons of great ideas are displayed here that I wish were delved into more detail, but the length of the book does leave more to be wanted. The final positive that I give Snyder here is that he ends the story with hope, which is what all superhero stories should end with. Batman is definitely a dark character, but that doesn't mean his story should always end in tragedy and darkness. Batman is a hero, and it makes sense that he should get a hero's ending. And of course, any Snyder Batman story would not be amazing if not for the great Greg Capullo. My personal favorite Batman artist, Capullo gets the chance to show off his Spawn side here because it's a Black Label book. His art is unhinged with all the violence, gore, and detail that a post apocalyptic world should look like. However, that doesn't mean it's gratuitous. All of the fight scenes flow well and are part of the story. And the praise doesn't go to just Capullo, but the rest of the art team, which is the same art team as the Batman run earlier mentioned: Jonathan Glapion, the inker, and FCO Plascencia, the colorist. Overall, this is an amazing read and one of the best Batman stories since DC Rebirth started (only slightly behind Batman Universe for me), and if Batman were to ever have a last story, you'd be hard pressed to find one better than this. Hats off to this Batman team, I hope Death Metal will be just as good.

Story is extremely hard to follow and understand

Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2020

Verified Purchase

The artwork in this comic is amazing, but the story is extremely hard to follow. I kept rereading sections over and over again trying to figure out what I missed to help me understand what was going on. Eventually I just figured it would explain itself if I kept on reading, but it never did. The story is all over the fricking place and I'm mad I paid money for it. When I read the preview for it before purchasing the premise sounded pretty cool, but you soon get let down. The only reason I'm giving this 2 stars is because the artwork is very good and the Joker in a bottle idea was pretty cool as well as dialogue between him and Batman.

An End to Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo's Batman Saga

Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2020

Verified Purchase

DC Powerhouse Team Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo return for one final Batman story in Batman: Last Knight on Earth. This DC Black Label book sees the Dark Knight waking up to an apocalyptic world where everything is just wrong. Accompanied by the severed living head of Joker, Batman traverses this new world to find out how and why it all went down. This hardcover collects all three issues of the mini-series.

While I have no problems with the narrative, the packaging it came in (the Amazon box) was damaged, and the bottom part of the spine has a slight tear to it. It's somewhat noticeable, but given the situation (COVID-19), it's not a problem for me.

If you're a Batman fan, you'll certainly enjoy it. If you've followed Snyder and Capullo's Batman run during the New 52 Era, you'll certainly want to read this book.

One of the coolest Batman stories I’ve read. A bit confusing but it all makes sense in the end. As far as I’m concerned Scott Synder & Greg Capullo are one the best Batman teams ever! Definitely check this out!

POW BAM ZANG

Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2021

Verified Purchase

I picked up this title because it was ranked so highly in graphic novels and I love me some Caped Crusader. However, this is not story was not all enjoyable. The batman-joker bromance was slightly interesting and the art was top notch. The plot was a slog because of the jarring transitions between different locations and narrators. The other reviews are correct, story is highly stylized and you'll either love it or hate it. This story did nothing for me and aside serving as geek trivia with my friends, left me unimpressed.

Wild, Fun Romp

Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2020

Verified Purchase

I found Last Knight on Earth to be a wild and fun romp. The story explodes with a great start and twists and turns through a very bizarre world. It’s quite easy to follow (unlike Arkham Asylum), but you’ll have many questions to which you’re only drip-fed the answers to until the very end where you’re met with a rather thoughtful climax. It’s one of the most unique and fresh Batman stories I’ve read, and even though I personally hate the Joker (much as Batman does), I found his comedic relief in this graphic novel really put the icing on the cake. It was a highly entertaining story that may well be my favorite Batman graphic novel alongside the Long Halloween.

A World Gone Mad

Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2021

Verified Purchase

Unlike some people, I actually think the story on this one is really good. I literally couldn't put it down. Though, I've long been a fan of the "Elseworlds" imprint. They changed the name to "DC Black Label," but it's the same thing. It's wildly outlandish, outright crazy in parts, as it portrays a sort of DC Universe where everything went wrong. Batman and a couple of the heroes that are left are trying to set things right. The artwork is also great, though that's what you expect from the team behind this comic. As a whole, I found it really enjoyable from the first page to the last.

One hell of a chaotic plot!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 11, 2020

Verified Purchase

I’ll start off by saying I loved it.
Halfway through I wasn’t sure where it was going because the plot is all over the place at times.
But I feel it has an Old Man Logan feel this comic has.
Who knows, a series with Wonder Woman maybe? Or other DC characters in this future.
This comic doesn’t pull any punches at all, the plot is as chaotic as chaos gets.
But in the end it plays out well enough.
I don’t want to spoil the story for you so I’m not giving away too much.
I think this may appeal to Snyder-Capullo enthusiasts more than anyone. So if you don’t know their names or you’re unfamiliar, check out The New 52 Batman comics!
The plot is nonsensical, it’s disjointed and I still loved it.
I even got the three original comics on release because I have so much faith in Snyder and Capullo.
The book is a basic hardback and dust jacket.
The hardback has the jokers head with a yellow background.
The pages are alright, better than The Justice League, Hawkman pages we’ve recently had.
You got some nice variants in the back too....
Yeah that’s it.
No notes, no sketches or alternative scenes.
My opinion would be get this comic!
But if you’re not plush with cash then I’d just wait for it to drop in price.
It’s a great story, but I don’t think it’ll go down with the ages.
So yeah, a recommend comic indeed.
Thanks for reading!

The Batman ending we desserved

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 7, 2020

Fantastic book. If you have been folllowing Scott Snyder's work since the new 52 this book is the ultimate climax not only to his work on the character but a fitting end to the batman mythos.

It's a crazy story with outlandish ideas and looks at a world that reevaluate's the DC heroes and villains as we know it. Throw in a great mystery plot and great dynamic duo and this book is nothing short of amazing.

If you love DC. If you Love Batman and if you love post apocalyptic settings with a fresh coat of paint. This is a no brainer for any fan

Not for me

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 7, 2020

Verified Purchase

As others reviewers have pointed out, this story is all over the place, and too surreal. I have really enjoyed the work of these 2 before, especially Capullos amazing art work (in my opinion the finest Batman/Gotham artist). But I just cringed at the story here. The constant swap of dialogue between the 2 main groups of characters, it's a clever little trick the first couple of times, but after a while it becomes tiresome, and just not enjoyable in my opinion. Keep up the amazing art Greg, but I don't believe this story was not fit for your pen.

Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo did it again!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 23, 2021

Verified Purchase

Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo will always be in my heart for their BATMAN run. My mother used to read me BATMAN stories as a child (A publisher here translated both DC and Marvel comics for a period of time during my childhood) and growing up, BATMAN became my role model and number one superhero!
I hadn't been reading comics for quite a while as it's somewhat difficult to get them here in Egypt. Thus, it made more sense to get volumes instead of issues. Of course, I had been following BATMAN TV shows, animated films, and live-action films.
Then, I started reading the Court of Owls storyline in 2015 and I felt tingles all over my body. The writing, the art, and every single thing brought me lots of happy memories. I began to read the classics electronically and got hardcover editions of books I enjoyed most. BATMAN The Killing Joke was my first ever hardcover comic book to get in my adulthood. I went on to follow the rest of Scott and Greg's run and rebirth. Here I am now, keeping myself up to date with all the new BATMAN issues,
I faced many traumas, including getting bullied, molested, and mentally abused. These stories became my Batcave, my Fortress of solitude. Without comics, graphic novels, and video games, I would have committed suicide thinking that there's no way to pick myself up or try again.
BATMAN is my heart.

Okay, enough with the backstory!

The book here is a great addition to their run. Its twists and convoluted story may puzzle some people, but it gives you a glimpse into a dark distant future where things are not what they seem. The Dark Knight must untangle the mysteries of the past to find out what's going on in the world.
What happened to Gotham City?
Who is the so-called Omega?
And many more questions which are answered in a mind-grabbing way!
Get ready for a masterpiece!

Just like the Court of Owls, Death of the Family, and Endgame.
Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo outdid themselves once more!

The perfect conclusion to Snyder’s take on the Batman mythos

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 10, 2020

Verified Purchase

I thoroughly enjoyed this book from beginning to end.. Scott Snyder has revolutionised Batman, and his time with the character has been unforgettable. Last knight on earth is a wonderful conclusion to Snyder’s time with the character, and it’s worth purchasing if you enjoyed his previous works (court of owls, zero year, etc). I can’t wait to see what’s in store for Snyder in the future.. but until then, this book is an absolute must read!!
