Summary: A bit of misrepresentation
Comment: Volumes two and three of Bruce Wayne Fugitive can both be slightly accused of misrepresentation. The first half of #2 basically has nothing to do with the main ongoing story and is more a continuation of Greg Rucka's previous Evolution storyline. Then the Bruce Wayne saga essentially ends with this volume, and yet there is one more, with its' contents being more accurately described as an epilogue than an intrinsic part of the story, combined with a few more unrelated single issues. While bits and pieces of both are important, this practice of deception is certainly disappointing and somewhat dishonorable. The last two volumes could have and should have been edited and subsequently collected into one larger book. I may not have picked up the last one if I had known more about its' exact contents. Shame on you, DC.

Summary: Detection at its' best
Comment: This second installment of the four part "Bruce Wayne" saga centers on everybody but him. Babs, Dick, Tim, and Cassandra put on their thinking caps while trying to figure out what in the world actually happened that fateful and tragic night, and as they would eventually learn, the weeks leading up to it. The detective work involved is remarkably detailed and well conceived, with each player contributing their own special area of expertise to the entire endeavor. Batman is mysteriously absent, leaving it up to his distraught Batfamily to hopefully find and decipher various missing pieces of this perplexing puzzle. Part of their thought process, while pondering the possibility of a frame, leads to the next logical question. Who was it directed at, Bruce Wayne or Batman, and to follow up on that further, if it was directed at Batman, it infers that person knows his secret identity. The plot certainly thickens, and while some details may have been uncovered by its' conclusion, there are still many unanswered questions, but isn't that exactly what makes any whodunit so compelling and enjoyable?

Comment: David Cain, the man that almost framed Batman for murder, and Batgirl's father, has important testimony to deliver. There are those that do not want him to do so, and have hired Deadshot to kill him.
Batman has two problems, he has to protect Cain, and he has to find a way to get Cain to actually want to live.
