When Batman's Been Dead - Batman & Robin 13: The Essence of Dick Grayson

[jlroberson]

Possible spoiler.

People may knock Morrison, or for that matter Frazer Irving(whom I like, and hope I don't see a cascade of flames here), on BATMAN & ROBIN. But for my own part, Morrison has taught me to respect Dick Grayson, and to understand what he is. And to me, this sequence, in the final panel, is the essence of what Dick Grayson is. He never gives up and there's always a way. If Batman is "justice", Grayson is "hope."


Also, you can knock Grant all you like, but Dr. Hurt's far more interesting than, say, Hush.(and I just noticed a tiny hint of Adams in Dick in that last panel. Probably unintended but neat)
(PS if interested: This week's LULU.)

It's one of the more distinguished and admired asses in the DCU. If Scansdaily has taught me anything, it's that.

I bet there are photo albums dedicated to it.

Tim's is the biggest, obviously.

Pah, Tim now has a multimedia presentation on the subject, you should SEE the open-air Laser-light show part! Uses a range of rotating filters and the Batsignal to unique, and impressive, effect.

With some Oracle contributions, I imagine?
