an alternate telling of the killing of the first Robin. Batgirl comes before Batman, the Joker is a woman, Bruce Wayne is a penniless cop, etc, etc. Takes place in the 70’s and the artwork is Boris Vallejo’ish, not cartoon.

As much as I usually really enjoy the Elseworld’s books, this one just didn’t do much for me.

I suspect the art had a lot to do with that. I’m not a big of this style, give me the old typical comic book…
