Looks good.

[LoneNecromancer]

Actually looks pretty fun.



And this is all kinds of awesome. Though it should've had Alfred the cat there too.

Looks good.

Looks like an absolute blast, and Syaf's art is rarely that good although I've always thought he had a lot of potential. I wonder how much time he had to work on it, since he's been off Batgirl quite a while. I noticed the Kubert cover and had to check to see if it was Kubert drawing the issue.

Fun, fun.

[El Sombrero]

This really does look pretty fun. Syaf doing a good job on the art, reminds me of Andy Kubert.

I keep on trying to drop this book and then a good issue comes out. I had to check Kubert wasn't drawing this too.

[SpideyZERO]

The cover is just adorable!

Did Damian send Bruce on a wild goose chase, while he stays back and fights crime? Haha, that's awesome.

I didn't know what to expect from this annual but this looks like it could be a lot of fun and a nice self-contained story. Looking forward to it!

Same here. I'm kinda sad that we didn't get this Syaf in Batgirl, honestly.

I think his work in Batgirl suffered a lot because of the inking and especially the colorist, so I wouldn't put all the blame on him, but yeah, this looks leaps and bound above his work on Batgirl.

I miss seeing Gleason, but that does look like a pretty awesome story.

[CBR News]

Robin leads Batman on an unrelenting hunt across the globe for family secrets that promise to change them both forever.
If you think you know Bruce Wayne...think again!

Huh, this issue kinda goes both ways in terms of what's being depicted. On the one hand if your just paying attention to B&R this shows some real growth on Damian's part and overall for this trio is kinda cute. But of course looking from Morrison's work in Inc. having Damian show up for the first time in his 666 outfit shows a very dark precursor to events. Overall though, even though this batch of characters usually isn't my cup of tea, the issue looks very promising.

Is this set after DOTF?

[Quinnhop]

Holy shit, cannot wait! This could be up there with #666 as Damian essential.
