One of the finest pieces of graphic literature the Batman storyline have spawned during the 90s, `The Last Arkham' was the storyline that made up the first issues of `Shadow Of The Bat' in 1992. Written by the spectacular Alan Grant and drawn by Norm Breyfogle, `The Last Arkham' goes far beyond the quality and subject matter usually found in the monthly comics.
Resisting the urge to use any of Batman's classic foes, Grant did the impossible here: He created two new `classic' characters - Jeremiah Arkham and Mr. Zsasz (who appeared in the BATMAN BEGINS feature film), both of whom are fascinating characters and were used often in the Batman comics since - not an easy task after fifty years of Batman comics.Like the best of Batman stories, `The Last Arkham' creates a good mix of action, suspense and criminal psychology.
In Arkham Asylum, Gotham City's nutthouse for the criminally insane, we find a rather unexpected inhabitant, Batman. He was put there because he went berserk and lethally attacked an officer. This because of his frustrations about not knowing what to do in the multiple-murdercase he's trying to figure out. All the clues lead to only one person, Zsasz, but he is already in Arkham Asylum and has been there all the while the murders took place.
