Re-reading this just to hurt myself, anyways Jason best Robin and making Joker an Iranian ambassador gotta be dumbest thing ever.

Me gustó el desarrollo de los eventos y cómo las dos tramas planteadas al principio chocan al final de la historia. Aunque sí le faltó emotividad y pienso que algunas ideas son algo problemáticas pero me alegra saber que en la actualidad ya hay una forma de abarcar la relación entre Batman y Robin de una manera más acertada.

She was honestly a bit blah lol

It’s partly that I already knew what would happen but also the story just didn’t super interest me

I did like seeing the original live or die ad tho!

I can see that "A Death in the Family" is an important piece of work in the Batman storylines but reading it now feels dated. I enjoyed "A Lonely Place of Dying" much more.
