Do you hate fun? Then be warned you will not want to pick up this tittle!
After first reading an interview with Grant Morrison, I wasn't sure if this would be my kind of Batman story; granted I have not been keen on Bruce Wayne being dead or trapped in time. My biggest fear was Mr. Morrison's comment on there being a tinge of inspiration from the 1960's Batman t.v. series. Could it be that the Caped Crusader would return to the "camp"? Would the Dark Knight not fight bad guys in the dark at all?
Somewhat reluctantly I picked up the first Issue of Batman and Robin and I found myself lost in the panels. Not only is Frank Quitely's art gorgeous, this I never doubted, but the story was incredible. Now don't get me wrong I still prefer Bruce Wayne to be the man under the cowl but this is great story telling. This is why I fell in love with super hero comics as a kid. It's fun; and yes I do see an influence of the 1960's Batman, but thankfully it is wonderfully married to the similar dark mood I feel when I watch Christopher Nolan's take on the Bat-verse. In some ways I feel that the villain shares a place on the podium with the Dark Knight's version of the Joker. Pyg is basically Buffalo Bill in a Piggly Wiggly mascot costume.
The action is well paced and really pulled me in. I really enjoy seeing the new equipment. Dick Grayson on "The Bat-ATV" really stands out in my mind. I really enjoy the red bat logo on the batmobile. Again this is the marriage of the 1960's t.v. series with the Batman Begins/ Dark Knight moods. The best example of this is the use of onomatopoeia in the final panels of issue 3. After the Red Hood fires a gun the word "Bang" is spelled out in the blood of the victim. (Cool!)
I'm really well pleased that Mr. Morrison respected Bruce Wayne enough not to just allow Dick Grayson to slip in with no transition at all. This feels separate from Bruce Wayne as Batman; as it should. Simply seeing the 60's inspired Bat logo on the comic covers splashed with shades of neon addresses the reader up front that this is a different Batman. Both writer and artist deliver that message perfectly while taking the reader on an adventure. This is the "All Star Batman and Robin" I wish for. I dig this title.
