Batman & Son, by Grant Morrison and Andy Kubert
Like so much of Grant Morrison’s work, I found Batman & Son to be awfully inscrutable, which is to say I wasn’t necessarily a fan. I liked the idea of Talia carrying on her father’s bad deeds, but the story itself felt scattershot and also as though it was jumping around without any real reason to do so. I don’t really like Damian, either, though I suppose he could get better. Since Morrison is now teaming up with Frank Quitely on a new Batman & Robin (and Damian appears to be Robin), it doesn’t look like the kid is going away anytime soon.
