Wow! Great Stuff!
Format: Hardcover
Before I read this book, I had just read the other recent Batman trade, "Life After Death" by Tony S. Daniel, and I was seriously disappointed. I really struggled to get through it. So the next night, I started to read this one, Batman vs Robin, and I couldn't put it down - I almost read the whole book in one sitting (if it wasn't late at night, I probably would have finished it). It just confirms, once again, what a great writer Grant Morrison is. In this trade, you get two main story arcs (with a nice "cameo" by Batwoman in one story) and the search for Batman really starts to develop, here. I enjoyed Volume 1, but IMO, this one is far superior.

It gets AWESOME. I highly recommend this
First volume is kind of a drag, but it gives backstory and character development for this volume 2. It gets AWESOME. I highly recommend this, it has mystery, action, and great art. Fun read and you MUST read the first volume.

Batman & Robin: Batman vs Robin
Format: Hardcover
First things first... This book will only make sense to you ONLY if you've been following Grant Morrison's complete run of Batman (including Final Crisis). If you haven't, most likely you won't like it or you'll get half the excitement this baby carries. I used to think I didn't like Frank Quiely's art, but after the psychedelic style he put on the first volume, I found myself missing him in this particular book. The art in the first 3 chapters (The Blackest Knight) is terrible. So simple and flat. The writing is good, but the art took whatever excitement for me. On the other hand, the art on the next chapters is quite better, and together with the story I end up wanting more. I have to give it to Grant Morrison. If they give him time and creativity control, he can make things happen (although it would be better if Dan Didio wouldn't make him re-write the end of Final Crisis). There's only 2 things I don't like about all this (besides the art on the first 3 issues): FIRST - I don't understand WHY Dick Grayson have to use electric knuckles every time he fights. SECOND: Seems to be now everybody knows Batman's secret identity. I liked the book as a whole, and I can't wait to check it all out now that lots of the beans has been spilled.

The reason I started reading Comics again
Format: Hardcover
This is the best comic book series I have read in a very long time. It will go down as a classic in the Batman Mythos. It should be on the top ten list when it comes to Batman tales. I was intrigued by the idea of Dick Grayson assuming the mantle and how he would interact with the new Robin Damien. What is really cool is the reversal of making Batman the light while Robin is the darkness in the partnership. I highly recommend it. This is an awesome set of stories. Read volume One first before you read this volume to see how it all comes together. When its all said it done it will amaze you.

Grant Morrison continues his mastery
Batman and Robin Volume 2 continues the story of Dick as Batman, Damian as Robin, replacing Bruce Wayne in Gotham after the events of Final Crisis (no spoilers here, despite the age). The artwork is clever, everchanging in style, and intricate; I find new details almost every time I re-read, it has such depth. I wrote an absolutely glowing recommendation for Volume 1, and this deserves similar praise, as does Volume 3 and The Return of Bruce Wayne. Highly recommend the entire arc
