5.0 out of 5 stars
the latest Robin at his finest, March 30, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Robin: Tragedy & Triumph (Paperback)
This trade paperback collects two Robin story arcs, the first telling of the death of Tim Drake's mother and the crippling of his father (before he became Robin) and the second telling of Tim's first conflict with the Joker without Batman watching his back. Both stories are satisfying and help to develop the young Robin as a character. The Joker's Wild story, reprinted from the second Robin miniseries, is really incredible. Tim is depicted as a totally normal teenager in most regards (although he has an odd after school job), and Chuck Dixon actually can write teenagers as actual people, something a lot of writers who try to write about teens can't do. All in all, a great book for fans of the dynamic duo, especially Robin, of course.
