Screwed up my favorite DC character in a ridiculous fashion. Not surprised that Beechen is one of the "geniuses" behind Countdown after this mess.
Amazingly drawn, and very well written. Had I not managed to pick up one of the singles I really would have been on the edge of my seat.
No words can express my love for this book. Williams art if perfect, Beechen's story is very entertaining...are grown women supposed to be into 'young action hero's' this much? This book will definitely make many women 'Robin fans'.
Like the art not excited with the stories(Its not bad stories but its not anything special either)
Robin #148-153.Beechen and Williams are very good storytellers. They both have a knack for character and seem to be on exactly the same page regarding the tone of the book. The stories zip by, combining all the best elements of Robin: the detective stuff, the teen slice-of-life stuff, the adventure stuff. Even the representation of a teenager soldiering on and remaining positive in the face of grief plays very well here. The last two issues, where Tim and Boomerang Jr team up to find a nuke in a...
I liked what Bill Willingham was doing with Robin before Infinite Crisis and One Year Later took over.

I would be very angry about Cassandra's apparent evil-doing in this trade if I hadn't read comics in the future of this already. Sometimes, having been spoiled in advance is nice.
Adam Beechen and Freddie Williams tell a very good Robin story that has gravitas. Instead of being an afterthought, Tim matters. The "One Year Later" storyline is good here because I didn't like where the book was going. Tim's decisions here make sense in a teenage sidekick type of way. I really enjoyed Beechen's Robin and Williams' art was great. Overall, a very exciting read.
Cute, cute. But I don't get what they did to Cassandra's character over here. I liked the Captain Boomerang Jr.'s part, though.
Eh, something of a slog as Robin gets a bit grittier but still keeps his innocence.
Robin: Wanted is a trade paperback that collects six issues (Robin #148–153) of the 1993 series and covers one-story: "Boy Wanted"."Boy Wanted" is a six-issue storyline (Robin #148–153) that finds Tim Drake as Robin takes on the League of Assassins with Cassandra Cain, formally Batgirl, as his main antagonist, who has apparently gone crazy or turned evil. There is also an interesting team-up with Owen Mercer as Captain Boomerang who murdered his father. This storyline takes place during the One
The character takes a severe left turn, and begins doing things completely out of character, which brings down the ability to enjoy this book at all.
One Year Later
Every other word is in bold. This makes it pretty much unreadable.
