Robin and Nightwing make an emergency trip to Monster Island, a high-security research facility far outside Gotham City. But their precious cargo has captured the interest of one of Robin's old foes!
Not much to this issue, as Jon Lewis pretty much deals with a few scattered loose ends that were left over from the Charaxes arc that could've easily have been ignored. Now the pages dealing with Spoiler's conflicted feelings about her father's death are interesting, and the debate that erupts between the various group over who can lay claim to Charaxes' offspring was a cute look at what happens after the heroes leave. However, the main plot involving Charaxes being freed so he could be hunted down by Jaeger is the one that I had some problems with. First off it's not much of a story given the number of pages that were handed over to it, and the ending isn't all that impressive, as Jaeger barely made an impression on me during his first visit to these pages, so a return appearance is hardly enough of a reward. I also have real doubts that Nightwing would leave Charaxes to die, and having him do so displays a very poor understanding of the character. Read Full Review
