Jawsh reviewed Tim Drake: Robin #1 Sep 28, 2022
4.5

DC Editorial needed to knock this one out of park, considering the natural hate it would get from babies on the internet.
All that nonsense whining aside, I shall proceed with my own:

MEGHAN FITZMARTIN has her heart in the right place, but a strong heart a good writer does not make. The book feels so Batman-lite that Drake and his supporting cast may as well be empty shells withou more

I wouldn't even mind the femininity, though there's always ways to explore that but even that I feel is too much for this creative team. Just the writing's not great :/ I hope it'll get better but the track record so far doesn't give me much of it.

Jawsh - Sep 29, 2022

Like the detective elements in this are soooo basic, as well ;___; It is HARD to write satisfying mysteries and detective stories, which is probably why DC has difficulty with Tim's character solo, but this was def not it. Like most Batman stories nowadays don't even have HARD detective elements at their core, but that's sort of a big part of Tim's character. The Sherlock line was so cringe lol

WhistleBlower reviewed Task Force Z #8 May 24, 2022
1.5

I can see why this book is being canceled. Sales are pretty low, huh? There are more sock puppet accounts astroturfing this than there are people reading. You can tell how they all use the same writing style. Very similar to a certain account that got banned for perverted and unspeakable deeds. It's very worrying, I fear his mental health will not hold up. Hopefully, he's barred from touching any more

Absolute Z to the 4 - May 27, 2022

As I reader through these Reader Reviews, it eventually dawned upon me as well that most of the reviews were probably written from a single account. The number of reader reviews is way higher than what most books get. I think it's worth more than a grade of 1.5, but this was the weakest issue so far. Definitely was solicited as ongoing, at the very same time Arkham City: The Order of the World was solicited as limited. One tracking Arkham escapees; this one tracking Arkham fatalities.

Absolute Z to the 4 - May 30, 2022

Maybe maxi in some announcement by some partner site, but not in the solicitations until #9.

Batman Jones reviewed Batman #121 Mar 3, 2022

Great art but for a fine-but-mediocre writer Williamson is spread too thin. I'd be totally cool with reading two monthlies from him and I'm sure I'd like them fine as I did his Flash but I'm also sure that, like his Flash, they wouldn't be anything special. I don't think he's bad, I just don't think he's particularly interesting.
