    Get Your Comic On - Neil Vagg Jan 30, 2024

    A great annual for Batman & Robin to kick off 2024. It's fun to see father and son focussing on their relationship for a moment, even if it does turn out to be in the middle of a life-or-death mission Read Full Review

    But Why Tho? - William Tucker Jan 30, 2024

    Batman and Robin 2024 Annual #1 embraces the larger format. It is a perfect example of the stories that can be told in an annual, benefitting from the extra space. Read Full Review

    Dark Knight News - James Attias Jan 31, 2024

    The Batman & Robin 2024 Annual is a fun self-contained issue that shows Batman and Robin don't always have to hate each other and that they can be father and son in their own, unique way. Read Full Review

    Comic Watch - Kevin Rossi Jan 30, 2024

    Overall, Batman and Robin 2024 Annual is a natural extension of the great work Williamson has done on the series so far. Both Bruce and Damian are in the woods and far from the city, so in a way, they are out of their element. The art does a good job conveying this, but this creative team pairing is much better suited for stories involving these characters in costume and in the city. In the end, Bruce and Damians relationship comes first and shines which is exactly what Williamson is trying to do. Read Full Review

    Lyles Movie Files - Jeffrey Lyles Jan 30, 2024

    It's a breezy, annual style story, but that doesn't take away from it being fun. Even with the inconsistent art, this was a fun entry with this week's releases. Read Full Review

    The Comicbook Dispatch - StoryBabbler Jan 30, 2024

    Batman and Robin (2024) Annual #1 shows Bruce and Damian take a little camping trip away from Gotham that turns dangerous real quick. There's no real sense of danger or anything, but this comic is a nice side adventure for Bruce and Damian who get some downtime with a little bit of action. However, while the writing is fine, the art is what will be hit or miss for readers. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - William Martin Jan 30, 2024

    Balancing the positives and negatives, I can say this is an okay issue but it's, unfortunately, the kind of thing you read once, throw in a long box, and forget about the next day. While the good elements remain refreshing against the current backdrop of the Batman line, it just isn't a strong enough comic to justify a recommendation. Read Full Review

    ComicBook.com - Nicole Drum Jan 31, 2024

    What doesn't quite work, however, is the art. just doesn't quite do it when it comes to the human characters. It's messy and a complicated and it detracts from the overall quality. Read Full Review
