>>150401759What for? It's shit.
I feel like this run would make more sense if DC just rebooted all the way back to Dick as Robin. That feels like it solves everything and then Fraction can tell the stories he wants without all the character bloat.
>>150401771Wtf is with these reviews? Literally nothing fucking happens in the first issue.
>>150402322they are paid reviews obviously.
>>150401759I liked it though I don't know if I buy Batman taking his mask off even for Croc
no thanks

>>150401759This just means stores had low expectations and ordered low.
>>150401759Another Batman #1? How many fucking times? What's the goddamned point?
>>150407033DC still isn't as bad about this as Marvel is.
>>150402287What character bloat? The only Bat-Family member he's using are Bruce and Tim, who literally only showed up at the end.
