Suppose regular Batman comics are an all-meat diet where things are dark, gritty and all about the mission, crime and action without a moment to breath in between, WFA is a meal consisting of pure cotton candy. It's all the bits of character interactions between the Bat-family that we wish would balance out the majority of comics.

Unfortunately, it really does veer a little too far in the opposite direction, perhaps because of the format or simply the niche it's decided to sit within and not venture out of. Very safe, very sweet, but there's not a lot else there.
