Review by James Attias
Batman and Robin #28 is an awesome issue if you love Batman, Robin and The Dynamic Duo!
To Ge or Not to Ge
I love love love when characters from comic books, who have been created many many years ago, and have somewhat become silly or a parody, get a modern update and a level up. Over the fence at Marvel recently they have done it with Doug Ramsey in Age of Revelation. And James Gunn’s Suicide Squad did it with Polka Dot man. I love when they do that. Shows that these characters that we have all read since we were kids, and seen in cartoons have unlimited potential! Can’t praise it enough. Now I think if you read this issue you will know exactly who i’m talking about, but due to the legal spoiler implications. I can’t talk about it until next issue haha. So read this one asap so you understand all of the references! Last Clue… He Gid It!
Growing Up
If you read my reviews you know consistency in an art team is usually one of my biggest grumbles. But the artist who drew this issue (and not the last issue) was great! I really loved how Damian looked as Robin in this issue, he looked a little more grown up, his costume looked cool as hell! This issue really was two bat thumbs up from me. Can’t fault it. Please keep it up, this run has gotten progressively better from the beginning. A real treat.
Conclusion
Batman and Robin #28 is a great issue that deserves to be read by fans far and wide! If you like Damian, this title should be at the top of your pull list!
