I liked Duke journey and a couple of bat brothers' scenes, but this was a mess.

I do not like RoboBatman
I do not like that Tim Drake has never been Robin
I do not like that the two main characters are so arrogant
I do not like that the Gotham Academy story is incomplete
There's not much in this book I do like.

A boring mini-event about a youth uprising vigilante movement, written and edited by people who have obviously never actually been part of a revolutionary movement. It seems to claim questioning power structures, but has its characters contradicting themselves left and right. One of its main heroes - Dick Grayson, the first Robin - calls the cops on all his friends and the kids trying to stand up against evil, and when they're all imprisoned in a Gotham birdcage version of Gitmo by aristocratic supervillains, he [motherfucking Nightwing!) tries justifying his snitch ass with some rubbish about "controlling arrests" "for their own good." I like a lot of the ideas that are *implied* or *alluded to* in this story, but fuck Robin War for its execution.

You know I really liked this arc, all the different stories weaving together, even if it's more of a tangled mess than a beautiful tapestry, until that ending. Lost an entire star. Once again New 52 showed that they have good ideas and shitty execution. What a dumbass ending. *groan*

Robin War has many enjoyable moments and good art, but can feel like a slag a lot of the time because of the uninteresting tie-ins. One thing it does really well is developing relationships between Robins, and making Duke an interesting character.
