The
sequel to The Long Halloween, is yet another winner from Joseph Loeb. All
the best from the Batman universe are in here, and his notion of how Robin
came to be is the best use of the Boy Wonder I've read yet.
One of the real strength of this one is the use of all the super
villains; every character from The Scarecrow to Mr. Freeze makes an
appearance and plays a roll in the story.
Three competing crime families, a cast of characters that probably
numbers 30+, plus two separate yet intertwined storylines that both demand
a lot of attention.
