What more could you wish for in a book?! Anyone who hasn’t yet read this book is just waiting to have their life enhanced by doing so, this is a very special book! It is one of my all-time favourite feel-good reads, guaranteed to put me in a good mood, to make me laugh, to make me feel nostalgic, to make me wish I worked in that bookshop, and also to make me have a lump in my throat sometimes while also being totally charmed and content throughout.

In fact, that was maybe my favorite part of this thing. I enjoyed the way minor flashbacks showed a different side of Jason's relationship with Bruce. Fast-forward a bunch of years and Jason is resurrected as an anti-hero (Lazarus pits, FTW!) called Red Hood - a nod toward the (maybe) secret origin of the Joker. So, the Joker beats him to death with a crowbar and ( ta-da!) Batman has one more thing that gives him a little extra gloomy/brooding street cred. Sadly, he was an annoying character.which resulted in fans voting to kill him off. Jason was the second Robin (after Dick Grayson left to become Nightwing). Ok, so this wasn't perfection, but this is definitely one of the few Rebirth titles I've read that I'm going to keep up with if I can.Įven though this is volume 1, if you have little to no idea who Jason Todd/Red Hood is, then you might want to do a bit of research before you pick this up. ![]() |
