A book about fathers and sons, specifically Bruce Wayne and his son Damian, who has just entered his life a age 10, and Henri and Morgan Ducard, who have their own issues. Damian Wayne, the titular Robin, is not a very likeable character, so I felt myself rooting for Bruce to find a way to deal with this unmanageable little psycho as opposed to getting behind Damian and his own journey. Morgan Ducard, AKA "NoBody", is a good-enough baddie, kind of a dark mirror image of Bruce and everything he stands for to give Damian an alternative father-figure to gravitate toward. I would've liked to have seen more of Bruce's interactions with the legendary Henri, but the flashbacks had to be kept sparse enough to not detract from the main story line set in the present day. I found the artwork to be bold, well-defined and executed, definitely a cut or two above some of the crowded murkiness of other street-level DC titles of late.
