#5 Moment of the Week- Batman rides shotgun
Posted in reviews by Fin Fang Doom
Rich kids in Gotham are being kidnapped. Luckily, Robin’s a rich kid now so he makes the perfect bait. Tim talks Bruce into announcing the adoption on the cover of Fortune so the kidnappers are sure to know about him. The best moment? Realizing that on this case, Batman’s the sidekick.
Who wants to read reviews of comics that you’ve already read? You know what happened, so what’s the point, right? So I thought I’d do something a little different. Every week (maybe) I’ll do a top five countdown of something from the comics I bought this week. Covers, panels, lines, cliffhangers, let-downs, characters…whatever stands out to me that week. Check back Saturday-Tuesday for the rest of the week’s best moments.
Why not just put all five of your moments in the same post? I can’t take the suspense.
The reasons are three-fold:
1) We almost never post on Sunday-Tuesday, so now there will be something new those days.
2) It’d get kind of long. I’ve got some full-page scans in the other posts.
3) Because I hate you.
1) Good point.
2) Good point.
3) Good point.
Based on this post alone, I almost picked up Robin. But then I looked at the art, and man, does it ever suck.
I think the art fits the title perfectly.
is Robin intended for the preschool set?
It’s certainly more kid-friendly than a lot of stuff out there.
