Picked this up on a whim. I remember being enraptured by the 1990s Shadow movie.

This story was neat. Highlight was definitely the final showdown in the area of the mind.

Edit: Here's a couple things I'm still thinking about.

1. A hero with guns who kills villains feels out of place in a Batman story as much here as it ever did with Jason Todd / Red Hood.

2. The Shadow (and his extremism), however, fits so well into the role of "Batman's former mentor / trainer," and makes Bats look so sane and tempered by comparison.
