    The Good: Now I'm not a huge Damian fan. In fact, I hate the character. So I came into this issue thinking it was going to solely be a Damian beats the other 3 Robins, who I actually and Jason being one of my favorite characters, in a fight with some obvious plot protections and the like but...this issue set up to prove me wrong. Damian is shown to have a great dynamic with each of the Robins. The dialogue between all of them even at once moves smoothly and enjoyable while building up Damian's challenge to the Robins for the future issues yet still stays true to each of the individual characters. We get introduced to a villain named Terminus who kind of adds this sub-plot to the story which in this story I'd like to see how it works into things. (maybe a team up of the 4 of them?) The artwork for the most part was really good. I liked how they drew Jason and Tim's attire, the detail in it was done well.

    The Bad: The only complaint I really had was the artwork during the beginning where they were trying to take a photograph of the family. I had trouble differentiating Tim and Bruce and in a few scenes it made it look like Bruce was talking to Damian but it was Tim. So I just had to get used to it I guess.

    Overall: Great issue. No complaints with the dialogue, all the characters were themselves and the dynamics between the Sons of the Bat are great. I like how they add another villain who should be adding another plot to this story and I am interested to see where it goes. Aside from a few complaints about the art in a few scenes, I have nothing bad to say about it. My only concern with the future of this arc is depending on what Damian fights the Robins in. I don't want any fights and them losing due to some plot armor.

    Recommended: Yes.

      I heard there would be a huge gathering of robins in this series and at the time the only Batman book i was reading was snyder's run. Ive bought the past 3 issues of this and have been pleased with it, like many Damian isnt really my favorite but i love his dynamic, his past, and his relationship with the Bat family. i Love all the robin, with Damian being my least favorite and find that it is about time all of the robins were in one spot at the same time. now on to the reviewThe Good: this issu...

      The Good: Great concept. The idea of fighting Robins isn't new, but the possibility of all of them fighting at the same time is a great idea.The Bad: I was expecting the whole comic to be Robin vs Robin vs Robin. But, there's build up of a character named terminus, who takes up at least 1/3 of the issue. This issue is primarily build up, but that's not a really bad thing. I was disappointed because the comic doesn't really say if the Robins will continue or start fighting. Which they will starti...
