You’ll feel the same sense of excitement as Dick Grayson, who gets the best birthday present of all: the chance to visit the Justice League’s Watchtower.Īfter a solid enough first issue with a few spotty moments, you’ll think that this is a book that has hit its stride, with the sophomore outing letting both Bruce and Dick grow more comfortable in their respective roles so they can enjoy being heroes together.
