These are just weirdly fun, I think I love the art style more than anything else. Everything's very clean here, and I wasn't expecting there to be such a good throughline of plot, this is stronger than it first appears, and if you enjoyed the cartoon it's a heavy recommendation.

This was fun! Picked it up to try to read more of Dick’s stories and appreciated it a lot. Also Bruce really just adopts anyone willing to give him a chance, huh.

”Colors for a child. Not a man.”

Dick’s personal growth was a story I think a lot of non-vigilantes can relate to. Disagreeing with your authority figure, be it parents or boss or Batman, can lead to needing time to find out what you really want. I’ve been going through that a lot lately, too, so it was a little too relatable. It’s hard to find yourself when you’re neck deep in someone else’s shadow.

Also long hair Dick never ceases to amaze.

Think I’d prefer seeing this plot in the show versus reading it in a comic like this, but still engaging! The style is so distinctive, forever love eyes that are just slits of white in the masks. Perhaps this is a sign I should revisit the original show sometime soon.
