This was a hard-hitting and beautiful comic run, and ended perfectly. The creative team outdid themselves with this. Read Full Review
Lemire is brilliant with characterization, but Nguyen's dreamlike art style really is the secret sauce that pulls it all together into a brilliant series and a perfect companion piece to the first mini. Read Full Review
Robin & Batman: Jason Todd #3 closes the series with a poignant and beautifully rendered look at a young Robin who never quite fit the mold. While the tension around his choices doesn't fully land, the issue succeeds in showing Jason's inner turmoil, his bond with Batman, and the haunting path that will eventually define his legacy.

Robin & Batman: Jason Todd once again further cements why Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen are one of the writer/artist duos in comics right now. The artwork was beautiful, and the story dove into the psyche of the most misunderstood Robin in the Bat Family. While the pacing had some issues and Jason's depiction might have been one note, this creative team crafted an engaging story that I left satisfied by the end. Read Full Review
This series is the most I’ve ever connected with Jason Todd as Robin. I feel like I finally have a genuine understanding of the Robin that is traditionally my least favorite. Thank you, Jeff Lemire.
I am tempted to give it a 9 to punch the series for ending.
Lemire is on such a tear right now. His fans are eating well currently.
I'm so happy that DC is now showing how Batman isn't a miserable grumpy anti-social loner, but he does care for people in his own way. I also like Jeff Lemire's writing for Jason Todd instead of an edgy teenager with hormones, but more of a complex kid.
