    The Batman Universe - Jamie Remolde Aug 9, 2023

    This story with its writing and art is what makes this kind of theme so enjoyable. The art can be fanciful and it allows the artists to have fun in their creation of the world and its inhabitants. It also allows for rich introspection of the characters and what really makes them tick. Read Full Review

    The second half of Knight Terrors: Robin #2 leads to a really special set of moments, utterly captivating as the comic finds its strength. It becomes a feel-good comic with a satisfying ending. Read Full Review

    Comic Watch - Chad Burdette Aug 8, 2023

    Knight Terrors - Robin #2 was an excellent ending to the limited series tie-in, with both Jason and Tim learning something about themselves, each other, and their roles in the larger Bat-Family. Porter shows an excellent grasp of Tim and Jason's different personalities and how they are more alike than they are different. Given the two issues and having to split page time between both characters, readers are left with more than a complete story that could be further explored. Read Full Review

    Comic Crusaders - Christopher R. Ford Sep 27, 2023

    To become a Robin is to either experience or invite darkness. That is explored here alongside the differences and similarities between these two versions of the sidekick. Their fears boil down to one not caring enough and the other caring too much. And they have to come to this realization to survive. A realization they need to hear from the other. It's a bit on the nose sure, but again, characters in the Batman universe are a particular brand of tortured souls and hearing them talk themselves up instead of down is good to see every once and a while.

    , it fits the flavor of the story well, especially in moments where you can feel how the nightmare is trying to isolate Tim and Jason from each other. They're very clearly put in their own little contained almost bubbles of nightmare space in a way that shows us how close, yet far, they are from each other. Read Full Review

    I think this is the best tie-in issue in Knight Terrors. It has good character moments for Jason Todd and Tim Drake.

    Tim and Jason are currently barely breathing, but it wasn't bad.

    Honestly, this was a poor conclusion to this short series and arguably worse than the first issue. I felt no real sense of alarm at all from what we got with these nightmares, and it made it even harder to take Jason and Tim's reactions and resolution seriously in the face of them. It really felt like Porter had no idea how to wrap this up, realized he was out of space to tell the story, and just hastily threw together some sort of Disney-ified ending about the true power of friendship that completely stripped the whole humanity from the story itself along with its two starring characters and their relationship. Even worse, the lesson pounded into us at the end was basically for Jason alone and not really for Tim, who ended up being the sav more
