"Robin Annual, #3 (Comic Book): Elseworlds"


The worst of the ‘94 Elseworlds annuals (So Far- I still have quite a few more to read and review). The mystery that involves the plot is transparent by about page 22. The Batman as a Ninja thing doesn’t really work (and besides his costume looks more like a Samurai’s, anyways)

 The writing was less than inspired and I thought that the ending was lousy and not needed. Very sloppy stuff here.

 The art is great at times and at times splattered with careless ink spolts. And most of the costume designs are consistent to either Feudal Japan or the current DC Universe. The Japanese retouch of Robin’s emblem was really cool- but couldn’t the artist’s had come up with something else for Batman that just ripping off his current (Neal Adams designed) logo?

Not Worth Consuming.
