Who hasn’t had a comic reading acquaintance that imagines there’s a Robin Training Program churning out “The Next Boy Wonder.” Fables is brilliant in how it approaches fairy tales and the like, and Willingham is applying this to Batman and his world.īrian Level and Jay Leisten elevate the drama and suspense as Willingham slowly reveals pieces of his plot. We all know Batman has a Robin, and there have been more than one. Imagine Batman is nothing more than a modern fable able to be retold in different ways, with different interpretations, with details that are told differently each time, yet at the core, there’s still Batman. Imagine you don’t know Batman as a character with a more or less defined history, at least one who has a current canonical timeline. It may be hard to do this, but imagine if you only know Batman as a character who is interpreted in different ways in different entertainment mediums with no clear-cut canon. With the reveal of the Robin training program, it becomes more obvious how Willingham is approaching Batman and his world. And, you have to keep that in mind to appreciate what Bill Willingham is doing in Batman vs Bigby! A Wolf in Gotham #2. It’s not a Batman comic any more than Fables is a Snow White comic. And, Batman calls even more Robins into action! Positives Review: Batman vs Bigby ! A Wolf in Gotham #2īigby escapes and confronts the Dark Knight face to face after learning more about Gotham from Molly Grace.
