I give this a high mark because it really is a quality comic; the writing and art are both spot on. I did feel the issue ended too soon, and again, we have read it before. The use of the Vicki Vale narration helps to spice up the comic and change the pacing. This is good. I look forward to the next issue, but I am counting down the days until All Star Superman!

For myself, I loved Miller and Lees new Batman! Definitely something I could sink my teeth into. Just be careful with the kiddies Read Full Review

Its not the greatest comic ever, but Miller has written some of the greatest comics ever. That means this book has the potential to reach those levels. So far it has potential. Read Full Review

Oh, what happens: bog-standard plot, really. Little more than my initial summary. But along the way we get instant insight into Bruce, Vicky and Dick, and we get the promise of continuing drama from the dramatic final splash. Its an old story, but one that hasnt had much focus in the anti-sidekick Batman era. The title alone is an indication of who the star will be in this tale, so thats a draw for fans of the iconic partnership. Theres life in these old boys and girls yet. Read Full Review

This book doesnt look like its going to reinvent the characters again, or be anything truly exceptional but then again, perhaps that was never the point. In one issue, the seasoned creators Miller and Lee have set the stage to tell a decent set of stories about Dick Graysons evolution into the Robin we know and love. Ill be interested to see how the series progresses from here. Read Full Review

I suspect Ill be in a minority in my opinion of this book, as DCs smug hyperbolic marketing tends to work like a self-fulfilling prophecy. But this is shite, and no amount of aggressive marketing will change that. It would have been shite had it been a standard issue of one of the ongoing Batman comics, but as a big over-exposed media event, its particularly egregious. Read Full Review

All-Star Batman and Robin was created for existing Batman readers who wanted to see the superstar team-up of Frank Miller and Jim Lee. It is also intended to attract current comic book readers who do not read a Batman comic. It is not meant for non-readers or children. As a comic, I give it . As a marketing tool, I give it . Seriously, Marvels Ultimate comics and their flip-books are better for the industry than this. Read Full Review
