Robin: Son of Batman #5

What the hell are you doing? Buy this book!! Its violence keeps it from being a good book for younger preteens but I think this is a great book for teenagers who love action, mystery, spy and Indiana Jones type swashbucklery. This means cameos from the more occult side of DC could very well happen down the line. In general it has all the ingredients. Check it out. Read Full Review

With a very touching moment involving the "Sons of Batman", this title proves that it has the action and heart that we expect from a Damian-centric story. Kudos Read Full Review

Overall this series is going pretty well…I like that we finally introduced a big bad, and we saw Talia and Damian meet since they were both killed/resurrected. My only question now pertains to whether this storyline will be wrapping up next month, or if it will continue into a second arc…after all, we have only accounted for 142 days of the Year of Blood.

The moment to moment storytelling can have its high points, particularly when you're just getting lost in Patrick Gleason's vibrant art. But the overall story is a mess of ideas in need of some structure. Read Full Review

This issue has finally changed me from dropping this series. I was never a fan of Writer/artist combinations . With great interactions by Mother and son of the Demon,the action was great and the storyline is finally making more sense.Hope Gleason keeps up the good work. Damian has always been a favorite of mine and hope we get more quality issues like this one.
