Ratings and reviews

if you have not read this, its a must. I love this story and the ark that jason todd embarks after this is like the cherry on top of the ice cream.

Definitely one of the best Batman's storyline among many. Worth to buy and add as collection. 80 years of long live the Bat! :3

Such a great story. Red Hood is becoming my favorite character. Funny how people hated Jason Todd as Robin,but I can't get enough.

The two went on to collaborate on Dark HorseÍs The Mask and their creator-owned series MAJOR BUMMER, originally published by DC.
