Somehow both the most touching and the least entertaining of the series so far. I think because it's an amalgamation of other parts of the AB series that don't necessarily fit in with the storyline, it reads somewhat disjointedly.
The backstory on Jack the Ripper/Joker was the best part, the storyline with Ivy was ~absolutely whatever though. Teasing Joker on the cover and diverting to an underdeveloped Poison Ivy sequence was underwhelming
