The Conclusion to an Excellent Story
Format: Hardcover
This is the third and final book of Batman and Robin in Grant Morrison's Batman RIP to Return of Bruce Wayne storyline. In this book you get a lot of kudos heading towards Dick from both Alfred and Jim Gordan. You also get some very interesting inter-play between Dick and The Joker (from Dick stating he's had the Joker figured out since he was 12 and the Joker stating that Dick was too similar to himself to be fun). On the other hand, some of the things done by Dick seem odd. He was captured by Hurt. How did he expect to escape being shot in the head? He left Damian alone with the Joker. He said he understood the Joker but was then unsure if the Joker was helping him or not.
Nothing major, just some things I didn't like. The story on a whole was excellent and a good conclusion. About the only thing I disliked a lot was the art work. The other 2 books were a lot better in this regard.
Buy it for the story, not the art.
