I was lucky enough to win Batman and Robin Vol 7 in the Goodreads Giveaways! Woo Hoo! I gave this edition to my husband who enjoys comics and superheros. He said he found the story to be interesting. Batman and his family coming together to save his son, Damion. He enjoyed the graphics. Although he was not familiar with the overall story, and some new characters, he enjoyed it and is looking forward to reading other volumes.

I rate it as high as I do because whole Batfam dressed with Robin motif is a plus, as well as the unintended hilarity of smol angry child with superpowers...it IS a lot funnier than you would think! This ain't "Brightburn!"

Damian is back and better than ever!

I really enjoy reading about Damian, he's such an interesting character. This was a good ending to the series. I definitely want to read more Damian stories in the future.

adventurous dark emotional tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

This was another good volume.

Bruce and the bat family fight their way through the hordes of New Apokolips and also something with Kalibak and its a great battle and when the fight with Darkseid happens its so good and then the resurrection of Damian which was like my favorite moment in the series and the unity of the family and then the Superpowers arc which showed a team up with JL and I quite enjoyed it and Damian's banter with Shazam is just golden. And then a mission to save earth from alien threats. Such a great volume and Tomasi excels at showing this great relationship between Father and son and showing Bruce going to hell to rescue and bring back his son from death, makes you love Bruce and Damian too. This series had all the things that makes you love Batman and much more.

Tomasi & Gleason are winning my fanboy heart with each new volume of this series. There are still plenty of tricks left for the Wayne family.

The first half, a typical Batman-in-god-mode story. I wanted to see what the Hellbat armor was all about, but the forging and explanation of the armor was in the previous volume, I guess. So, while totally badass, I was quite confused with how the suit actually worked.
The second half, stained family dynamics. Damien has super powers for, like, a day or two? I dunno, I got bored quick.
