Wow, this was a really great volume!
It was packed with emotion! In Undone, the first part to this volume, it spoke so many words without using a single one.

I'm pretty sure I haven't read the third volume but it didn't bother me that much. This volume was really depressing and I actually cried at the end.

Damian grew on me, as did this story.
I found Bruce's obsession with the computer simulation very believable, and hit home... in a way that I think most of us can envision. We may not be capable of the physical force of Batman, or relate to his wealth, but we can imagine ourselves in that torture seat... running the simulator over and over. Alfred's take at the end was beautifully done, and we're given a perfectly brief expansion of the circle of grief and widening sense of loss and love at the end.

18 is the sole reason to buy this book. The Grief arc probably would have hit better if it didn't feel like Batman was always in GrimRage. Recommend, though.

3.5 Stars, rounding up because of the end with Pennyworth
Bruce's grief was the expected one-note rage of a grieving father. It was expected sure but I felt a lot more could have been done with the final homage to Damien - the second best of all the Robin's. What made the story was the side characters, Catwoman (always) Batgirl (because she shared her own pain of grief) and two of the prior Robins' (especially Red Hood).
Good but not great, wanted more.

Fab opening issues "Slient Issues". The rest was just ok, having Frankenstein pop up isn't my cup of tea.
