Wow, let me say firstly if you one take one thing away from this review this is a Graphic Novel that any Batman/DC fan shout read, its EPIC!
As a big Batman fan this is one I’ve wanted to read for a while, grabbing it from my shelf I flew though over half the book in one sitting only stopping because of work #grownup.
I love the emotional storyline and how we see Batman/Bruce struggle with the familiarity of the Red Hood, this comic is well written, beautifully drawn with an in your face art style that works perfectly well, I especially loved the cameos from so many major DC characters once the story kicked off.
10/10 comic and it makes me want to go back and play Arkham Knight all over again!

"I'm not talking about killing Cobblepot and Scarecrow or Clayface. Not Riddler or Dent... I'm talking about him. Just him. And doing it because... because he took me away from you."

I will start with isJason is a fave DC character, and if he wants to kill bad guys in Gotham, who is Batman to tell him he can't. But seriously, his relationship with Bruce is just so heartbreaking, and this makes for a complex read of his character and their relationships. The way Robin Jason handled here, I hate.

Me gustó mucho. Fácil una de mis historias de Batman favoritas. Me sorprendió la forma en cómo fue llevada la incógnita de Red Hood. Lo importante, a mí parecer, no era quién estaba debajo de la capucha o cómo es que Jason regresó a la vida, sino el motivo de sus acciones y la revelación es mi momento favorito de toda la historia. Es tan dolorosa, complicada pero, sobre todo, válida. Hace dudar al lector, por un momento nos tiembla el suelo, pero Batman arroja una respuesta, o más bien una idea, lo suficientemente contundente para mantenernos de pie. Bueno, al menos en mi caso así fue.

Fuck you, Batman. I have mixed feelings about this volume. While it has been well written and the plot is quite interesting, I wanted Batman to lose. Yes, I wanted Batman to lose. Weird, right?
You see, I like Batman and other freaks. Batman mostly because of his dark side. But then there is the line that even he won't cross. Jason crossed that line. Jason is what my ideal hero is. Jason is what I would become if I could get some powers. For once, I wanted Jason to kick Bruce's ass and send him packing. I wanted Bruce to leave Jason alone and mind his own business. I can keep whining all day about this. I know I'm not making much sense but you gotta read the volume for that.
Otherwise, one of the best Batman graphic novels I have ever come across. Recommended for all Batman fans.
