    The family bond between father and son has some competition when first love comes to town in this latest chapter. Williamson balances the serious case with family bonding like no one else.

    Geek Dad - Ray Goldfield Mar 12, 2024

    Joshua Williamson, for all his background in horror comics, has managed to give us one of the most optimistic and wholesome Bat-family comics as Bruce and Damian slowly learn to not just be partners, but father and son. Read Full Review

    Lyles Movie Files - Jeffrey Lyles Mar 12, 2024

    Batman and Robin continues to be the most consistent title in the Batman-focused line of books. Williamson takes a steady approach to the story while the art team delivers strong work on their end. The Man-Bat arc remains interesting, and it'll be fun to see where Shush and Flatline fall in line as the story continues. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Revolution - Kevin Lainez Mar 12, 2024

    Batman and Robin #7 is made by the presence of Flatline. Her dynamic with Damian Wayne is undeniable. Seeing how Bruce Wayne recognizes this and lets Damian and Flatline go on their own adventure was cool. It led to this series now have two concurrent storylines with the developments by Man-Bat and Flatline's family. They compliment one another well for another fun issue of Batman and Robin.

    Get Your Comic On - Neil Vagg Mar 12, 2024

    Batman & Robin takes its foot off the gas – sort of – to reset the playing field for a brand new arc. But make no mistake, this is an incredibly well-plotted series which knows exactly where it's going. Read Full Review

    The Comicbook Dispatch - StoryBabbler Mar 13, 2024

    Batman and Robin #7 sees the return of Simone Di Meo as the main interior artist as well as the return of Flatline. Naturally, Damian and Flatline do a little catching up, which is wholesome, as well as fighting criminals together, which is cool. And there's clearly more going on with her, so we got an interesting mystery there for a B-plot. Meanwhile Batman sees that Man-Bat's got something big cooking, and he's approached by Shush of all people for a team-up. While Shush hasn't been the most impressive new character, this temporary team-up could make things interesting. Read Full Review

    AIPT - David Brooke Mar 12, 2024

    A setup issue for sure, Batman and Robin #7 will please fans of Flatline and the return of Simone Di Meo. If that's not enough to sell you, know that the Man-Bat story is compelling, albeit incredibly slow. Once it finally reaches its climax I'm more than certain it'll be good. But now, we wait.

    Comic Watch - Kevin Rossi Mar 12, 2024

    Batman and Robin #7 is a solid issue and seems to have found its footing in the last few issues. Williamson is putting a lot of effort into growing Damian as a character as well as the father/son relationship between Damian and Bruce. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Gabe Hernandez Mar 14, 2024

    Batman And Robin #7 has potential in the growing bond between Damian and Bruce, but that potential is getting lost in a malformed subplot (Cult of Man-Bat) and a villain who is starting to become more annoying than intriguing (Shush). Read Full Review

    Batman-News - William Martin Mar 13, 2024

    This is a comic that I can't hate because of how much I enjoy the portrayal of Damian and Bruce (plus Flatline), no matter how much the plots make me want to. Until a new plotline takes center stage I don't see that changing. For the foreseeable future, we will most likely be stuck in this world of uninteresting mischaracterized villains, nonsensical story choices and weak sequential art. Oh well, at least Bruce is still a nice guy. Read Full Review
