DC's latest weekly Batman comic comes to a close this week, as pretty much every character who's ever qualified as a sidekick to Batman (plus a few more for good measure) join forces to end Mother's reign of terror. But all of that is secondary to the dynamic that's served as the true heart of this series for the past six months - the relationship between Harper Row and Cassandra Cain.
It's just as well writer James Tynion IV focuses so much attention on Harper and Cassandra, because Mother herself serves as a fairly final villain for the series. She was built up to be a very different kind of Batman foe - one who sticks to the shadows and manipulates others rather than dealing in colorful doomsday schemes and villainous monologues. But that's really all Mother boils down to in the end. Here she's just another power-mad villain gloating over her imminent victory while Dick Grayson and his team fight to save the day. Compared to the finale of Batman Eternal, where Lincoln March emerged to pose a very personal threat to Bruce Wayne, Mother lacks that special spark.
