BATWOMAN: ELEGY by Greg Rucka

Gotham City has become victim to a crime spree by one of its most deadly killers--Alice.  With her father's help, Batwoman wages a battle against Alice and her gang.  Flashbacks give us the story of Batwoman's childhood, and a shocking revelation changes the relationship between Batwoman, her father, and Alice.

The story is well told and the images are mesmerizing.  Black, white, and red dominate, as angles and movement give the story an edge.  I particularly liked that everything Alice says is something from ALICE IN WONDERLAND.
