Robin/Batgirl: Fresh Blood by Andersen Gabrych, Bill Willingham, Jesse Delperdang, Damion Scott, Alé Garza
2.0
Read this on 1/24/2020 for Robin #132-133 as part of my Robin read-through.
I read this about a decade ago when I was really into Cassandra Cain. Those Batgirl issues are still good and have some great quiet emotional moments, which is essential for the character. I also still really like Damion Scott's art on the Robin issues. The story is pretty stupid on the whole, though. There's really not a lot to comment on, other than that I'm glad the books didn't linger too much on the characters' grief, nor did they ignore it. The new setting is cool too, even if we didn't get to see a ton of Bludhaven, and even though I wasn't quite ready to move on from Tim's last slice of Gotham which had just been introduced.
