    In this issue we are walked through the origin of Batman and Nightwing, or Robin as it were. At the same time we watch as Dick Grayson struggles with the idea of taking over the mantle of the Bat.  I have read many books that deal with the death of some character or another, most of them are filled with false sentimental feelings. This book as some real and honest moments. The characters are acting organically with the story. Letting us see why these characters are some of the greatest supporting characters in comic book history.
