Batman: The Cult, by Bernie Wrightson, Jim Starlin, Bill Wray

3.0

This was odd, but I think I liked it. The concept was interesting: Batman gets captured and brainwashed by a cult. I was interested to read this in part because it includes Jason Todd as Robin. While it was predominantly just Batman, it was interesting to see some of the things that seperate Jason from Dick, Tim or Stephanie. Jason doesn't feel like Batman's sidekick, but rather an equal. He takes the lead sometimes and is more tough with Batman than the others. That's particularly important with Batman being somewhat incapacitated for the majority of this volume. Another Robin would have made this a very different story. I wish Jason would have been developed more because I think it's a really interesting dynamic.
