Like a blast of fresh air, this issue of Batman is a love letter to fans of the Batman and Robin team.
It's a "done in one" issue by writer Tom King and guest artist Matt Wagner, and it offers a fresh look at the two heroes and what they mean to each other.
We see glimpses of Dick Grayson's earliest days at Wayne Manor, struggling to adjust to a new way of life.
We also see some modern interaction between the now-grown Nightwing and a much more surly Dark Knight.
It's a nice glimpse into happier days, and has some fun with the Dynamic Duo's rogues gallery as well (or at least its fringe elements).
An entertaining issue that's a nice counterpoint to the usual grim doings here. Recommended!
Grade: A
