4.0
The story here, in a macro sense, was even more of a mess than last volume. But each of the individual pieces were so much fun that I didn't really care. I love the direction Nicieza takes for Tim, "the man with a plan," each issue some intricate plan to take down an aspect of the criminal underground. His captions and the character interactions are still the highlight, as are Nicieza's wild ideas. I also like how hacking and technology are also at the forefront: the Unternet, a sort of "internet for villains" before the dark web was common knowledge, was a little prescient for the current state of the real-world internet, while also being a bizarre stream-of-consciousness journey.
The whole Red Robin series was a joy to read, and I'm really glad this was the way this version of Tim Drake ended things.
