Overall i liked the story and found it to be a great read. And all though it bothered me at first that they play Dick and Damien off as nieve i do like that they had Bruce call him out only to have Tim stand up to Bruce about what had just happened.
With Tim's little speech at the end he sounded much much darker then where he first started. The only part that cuaght me off guard and angered me a little is when he said something along the lines of "Gotham is now mine (or mine ofr the taking). Not Dick's. Not Bruces. Mine."
I thought that was a little arrogent. I know he is supposed to equal or surpass Bruces detective and planning skills but really he thinks he could take Gotham for his own if he wanted to with Bruce, Dick, Damien, Cat Woman, and the Birds of Prey out there patrolling the streets?
He even states he took in to account 1000 different scenerios that Captain Boomerang could have not ended up in this end result but he ended up there anyways. OK, so one villain you could barely say has some sort of complex thinking is one thing but facing off against Bruce Wayne (who we will even say is 2nd in planning and detective work to Tim), Dick Grayson who while it takes him a little while longer with his detective skills is still good and anticipating his villains next move during a fight, and then there is Damien and kid that hates him that has been trained and mastered the arts of a ninja including how to kill people (probably better than Dick and Tim Combined). Then we can throw Batgirl and Black bat in and he has absolutely no chance of taking Gotham for himself.
Also one more thing. Where did he get teh money for his new Red Robin Lair and all his new toys and stuff expecting to keep it from Bruce. Something that size creates a big money trail.
