WILL FATHER AND SON RECONCILE...OR RUMBLE? The Lazarus Volcano has left its impact on planet Earth, but the fallout from Bruce and Damian Wayne’s war is far from over. It’s been a long road from the initial tensions that drove a wedge between father and son in the pages of Teen Titans, but is the hatchet at last ready to be buried? A bold new chapter in the lives of Batman and Robin begins in this epic final issue!
I've already been singing from the rooftops about how excellent this series is, but this finale sealed the deal: Batman vs. Robin is something truly special. Read Full Review
It's a 5 star finale for Batman vs. Robin as Waid circles the story back around to its titular characters. Wrapping up much of Lazarus Planet, the story keeps its sense of grandeur but hones in perfectly on Bruce and Damian. Unexpected twists keep the reader on their toes and bring this cataclysmic event to a close with a fist pumped high in the air WE ARE BATMAN! Read Full Review
Waid is one of the most overtly optimistic superhero writers out there, even on a usually darker character like Batman, and the ending to this issue had me grinning from ear to ear. Read Full Review
While the main story event failed to deliver, this final installment of Batman vs. Robin made for a satisfying conclusion that successfully concludes the Nezha storyline, the war of the dynamic duo and sets the stage for the next era for DCs magic users. Read Full Review
Waid's excellent writing provides an earnest voice for Damian that is emotional without being oversentimental or hokey. Asrar and Bellaire are at the top of their game with art and colors on this book and create some stunning splash pages. So often a series is defined by whether or not it can "stick the landing" and it's safe to say that Batman vs. Robin #5 did just that. Read Full Review
A clear sense of emotional purpose and the weight of history make for a strong conclusion to "Lazarus Planet Read Full Review
Asrar delivers some beautifully detailed art filled with great action and visual thrills. A wonderful looking issue with some great moments that complement the tone of the story. Read Full Review
As for Batman vs. Robin #5, it wasn't necessarily the ending I thought we were going to get. But, I certainly appreciated a writer finally developing Damian Wayne and moving him from a troubled, price of a kid to a young adult. Read Full Review
We all have our opinions on favoured Robins, but Batman Vs Robin has forced both characters to a new level of appreciation for each other that leads to a feeling that Damian is absolutely right for the role and that we now have a slightly different dynamic between the duo. Read Full Review
Batman vs. Robin #5 does a good job maintaining its high quality despite being momentarily interrupted by the Lazarus Planet event. Readers of the series may find themselves lost if they didn't read the previous tie-in issues, but Mark Waid's script manages to summarize past events efficiently, if not artfully. Mahmud Asrar's art is wonderful to behold and never gets lost in the potentially unwieldy scope of the story and Jordie Bellaire's colors are a treat to the eye. While the intimacy of the series is lost as it approaches its endgame, any fan of Bruce and Damian will be moved by its final pages. Read Full Review
Overall, if this sheds some of the darkness from Damian then I am all for it. Its been awhile since weve had a Batman and Robin book, especially with Damians Robin. I would be over the moon if this creative team continued on to a book that drops the vs. and adds an and. Read Full Review
While I wish the pacing of the issue was a bit betterit feels a little too slow and lags at timesstory wise, there is quite a bit in this issue that very much works. Read Full Review
Batman vs. Robin #5 puts a capper on the conflict against the Demon Nezha with a fight between father and son, with the world's fate in the balance. The action, pacing, and sense of momentum work, and the art are generally good, but the final solution to Batman's possession may have some readers groaning rather than cheering. Read Full Review
Batman vs Robin #5 has some truly great, emotional moments, but it doesn't quite stick the landing, ending this miniseries too abruptly. Read Full Review
In the end, Batman gets his Spartacus moment. Waid does a pretty good job of drawing emotion to the page, but theres no escaping the fact that the ending to this series is breathtakingly silly. What Waid is attempting with the end of the series is admirable, but theres just NO WAY that the magical rite involved will be anything other than a very, very weak finale to a series that could have been so much more than it was. Read Full Review
Waid sticks the landing when everything up to this point is wobbly. But he gets Damian, he gets Batman, and he has fun. The problem is really that this became seven parts with the Lazarus Planet story and really could have done everything it needed to in four parts and with the Lazarus stuff (which seems likely to be forgotten quickly).
The only thing keeping this back from being truly amazing is it being an epilogue to Lazarus Planet, instead of feeling like the final issue of Batman v Robin.
This felt a bit rushed but I really enjoyed the idea behind this ending.
a fun and satisfying conclusion to this event.
(ESTA RESEÑA ABARCARA TODA LA SERIE)
Batman se ha convertido en un pésimo personaje, y aunque esta serie no es lo peor del personaje, si esta bastante mala, aunque al menos deja a Damian como un personaje muchísimo mas rescatable
