Product Description:
Gotham City is plagued with crime and corruption in places high and low, but one man has taken a stand against evil of all forms: the dark avenger known as Batman. One of the most shocking stories of the Dark Knight's career is retold in hardcover, for the first time ever! When Jason Todd - the wilful, disobedient teenager who inherited the mantle of Robin - ignores his mentor's advice and goes after the Joker alone, he pays the ultimate price! Now the Caped Crusader is hunting his nemesis once more, with Superman at his side - but this time it might well be a fight to the death! By classic creators including Jim Starlin ("Death of the New Gods"), Marv Wolfman and George Perez ("Crisis on Infinite Earths") and Jim Aparo, this story still shocks!

The geopolitical angle with the Joker is silly, but the way the iconic villain meticulously sets a trap for Robin is brilliant, ... Read More

I just finished reading this, and wow... That was one of the best Batman stories I've read. Being myself adopted, I connected straight off with Todd's search for his mother, not knowing who she is. This, of course, only amplified the effect of the titular death. I also enjoyed much of Joker's plans in this story. The Iranian delegate struck kind of close to home- remember the guy who said "no preconditions"?- but it never got too political, even in dealing with that. A great, emotional Batman story with ...

This is a decent story which is mainly well known for the out come rather than a great story. This is something I would recommend to fans of Batman to read for the sake of the importance to the Batman story line, but I probably wouldn't recommend to many others. In fact even if you're a Batman fan and you don't have a lot of money to through around there a lot of other Batman stories I'd point to before this one. Now I don't want to say that this is that bad of a story I was entertained and never thought ... Read More
