Robin #178 - Comic Review - Shazap.com

Welcome back zappers, Im Devin Curry with http://Shazap.com. Your online video source for comic book news and reviews. Follow me on Twitter at http://twitter.com/devincurry. Robin is workin. He is covering the entire city, taking on the gangs and trying to find Batman. Fabian Nicieza is really doing a good job of capturing the essence of the Robin character. Its been a long time since anyone has but he really gets this character. The best part of the book was when Robin and Nightwing crossed paths in the Bat Cave and Tim was like need help with the two face thing and Dick says nope need help with the gangs and Tim said nope. It showed continuity as well as how much Tim has grown in that he can handle the city by himself. I still havent figured out what Stephanies role is in all of this and why she wants Tim dead, if that really is Stephanie in the Spoiler costume. If she is dead again Im going to be really disappointed. RIP is a great story and I love what it is doing to the members of the Bat family. This is a great title and you are missing out if you are not reading this book. Distributed by Tubemogul.

Did you call the fashion police? I didn't know that your readership of the title depended on Tim Drake's clothing and hair. I'm starting to believe that it isn't Steph too. You would be surprised, the only thing you really need to know from the other Bat titles is that Batman is gone. The book would read pretty well on its own.

What is with Robins hair cut & sideburns! Art is so bad on this. I dropped this, nightwing and both batman titles halfway through RIP, just not enjoying that story arc at all.

Fabian has long been one of my favorite writers. Might actually have thought about picking up ROBIN if it was necessary to read a half dozen other Batman related titles I don't care about. Good review.

Not that I'm following it, but other friends don't seem to believe that it is Steph back from the dead.
