![]() Rating: - An Excellent Tale of a Caped Crusader, a Boy Wonder, and a Man Who Laughs.I just finished reading this, and wow... That was one of the best Batman stories I've read. Being myself adopted, I connected straight off with Todd's search for his mother, not knowing who she is. This, of course, only amplified the effect of the titular death. I also enjoyed much of Joker's plans in this story. The Iranian delegate struck kind of close to home- remember the guy who said "no preconditions"?- but it never got too political, even in dealing with that. A great, emotional Batman story ...

This is something I would recommend to fans of Batman to read for the sake of the importance to the Batman story line, but I probably wouldn't recommend to many others.

It's an excellent read very easy to follow, and is one of the most defining moments in the batman universe Rating: - Graphic SF ReaderHere we are again lucky enough to have the fantastic talents of Jim Aparo drawing Batman. Yet another DC comics publicity stunt in part, though, as the latest incarnation of the Robin character was not too popular with readers. So, they decided to do a storyline where the Joker captures him, and the readers could vote on whether he died or not. Pretty clearly from the title, it is thumbs down for the Bird Boy.
