Detective Comics #866


Have I mentioned how happy I am to have Batman back in Detective Comics? Although the story itself is only so-so I like how Dennis O'Neil gives us a case that's been bothering Dick Grayson since he first put on his Robin booties, and one he can now finally close as Batman. Plus I love the flashback art from Dustin Nguyen. I'm even willing to forgive the mistake of Batman's costume not fitting the period (Batman hadn't yet added the oval when Robin first hit the streets). Throw in Robin's first encounter with the Joker and I'm pretty happy. Definitely worth a look.

[DC $3.99]
