BATMAN CONFIDENTIAL No.44: "Batman Versus The Undead," part one. Batman teams up with a reformed vampire to hunt down a mad scientist hell-bent on using voodoo to reanimate the dead. While not rated for "mature" readers this dark romp through the French Quarter of New Orleans has a couple of truly shocking scenes. Even the cover is unusually gruesome showing you what dreadlocks are really useful for. Written by Kevin Vanhook and drawn by Tom Mandrake who, if I recall correctly, brought us the SUPERMAN AND BATMAN VERSUS VAMPIRES AND WEREWOLVES mini-series from last year. Part two just came out this week. So far it's worth the time and the money.
