A lot happens in this, but it’s only about half way through when the drama returns to Gotham that it has any real focus. The art is okay but never outstanding. It’s all... fine
Totally loving this series. Big fan of Tim Drake. Super-cool costume and one I wish he'd kept.
I'm really enjoying this series. Maybe because I never cared about Tim before, maybe because I just enjoy Yost writing (check out scarlet spider) but I'm actually having fun here. SO Ra is not happy with Red Robin's betrayal. He sends all his people to Gotham to show the little birdy what's what. Robin is like nah-uh, and heads back to Gotham to help his friends. Unlike Batman though, he doesn't do it himself, he relies on friends to help. It's a entertaining, well drawn, little arc of Tim growi...
MY LOVE
4.5 Another stellar volume, picking up right where the last one ends. Tim Drake gathers the skills and wisdom he’s learned from all peers and mentors and becomes an unstoppable force. Yost does a good job of writing his analytical, logical flow of thinking. Tim feels like he has to bare the weight of the world on his own, most especially the weight of the void left by his adopted father. Luckily though, this time around he gets more familiar backup... his ex! While he’s become a cold, calculated...
I never thought I'd be a fan of Tim Drake. Jason Todd being my favorite of the Robins when he became Red Hood, I wondered how Tim Drake would grow out of being Robin. However, I became intrigued, so for my birthday I bought all four volumes of Red Robin and started reading them in one sitting. I wanted to know where the story was going and how he would outsmart a few villains and prove that Bruce Wayne was in fact, still alive. Amazing! I recommend this to everyone and give Drake a chance!
Fantastic book with great character development and interactions.Great for Robin fans
Much love to Tim Drake
This was more entertaining than the first volume, still is always on the edge of "this is important in the main Batman's plot" and "what's important about this?"Is a closure to all the plot of the first volume, so that's cool at least.
Red Robin: Collision picks up where the previous volume left off, collecting the next seven issues (Red Robin #6–12) of the 2009 on-going series and Batgirl #8. The trade paperback covers three storylines: "Council of Spiders", "Collision", and "Batgirl Rising: Robins are Red"."Council of Spiders" is a four-issue storyline, of which three are published in this trade paperback, (Red Robin #6–8) that has Tim Drake as Red Robin being forced by Ra's al Ghul to take a hiatus from his search for Bruce...
AMAZING!!
Even with how okay the Council of Spiders plotline is in this (sort of, the last 2/3 of the story is in this anyway), the actual Collision story is SO FUN and so good imoCouncil of Spiders: OBVIOUSLY I missed something with whatever this "Black Lantern" storyline is, but luckily they don't really depend on it besides mentioning that Tim left Tam (I hate their name confusion tho lol) with the League of Assassins for a day or so to deal with it. When Tim does come back to pick up where he left off...
Red Robin #6-12 + Batgirl #8.Pretty much the perfect superhero comic. If the last volume set up Tim's "new low," this volume was all about rebuilding. Tam Fox was a great new counterpoint to Tim. To's art is the perfect mix of realistic figures with manga-inspired framing and faces. Tim's dealings with Ra's Al Ghul are perfectly structured, barreling forward with constant momentum. And once we move into the "Collision" story in Gotham, everything comes to a head wonderfully, reaffirming everythi...
There's definitely a lot of background info I'm missing. When did Bruce die or not die? How does Tim know he's alive? What happened to Conner? Why is Conner fine? I'm very lost. However I loved issue 12, in which Tim Drake distinguishes himself from Batman, in that he knows when and how to ask for help from his friends.
Oh I am beginning to like this. Collision is superbly written and orchestrated. The set pieces are slick and the the detective work a true tribute to Tim Drake. The artwork is nice and easy on the eye with lot of flowing colour that add to the scene nicely. Well done Christopher!
I really love this comic. The storytelling style, the panels, the artwork (though Tim + cowl usually equals grown adult), the story itself --Probably the best-written comic I've ever read. Definitely recommend.
3.5Read as individual issues, so didn't get the Batgirl one. But this was excellent.
amazing
A really enjoyable read. I think the story is brilliantly written and I hope to pick up the next trade at some point. I love the character of Tim Drake and always think he's really interesting. The characters are all great and the relationships are really good too, the only person I'm not overly keen on is Tam. The artwork is fantastic as usual.
Continues the story that began in the last volume. Art is not as solid and the narrative becomes a bit confusing from time to time. Also, parts of the story feel repetitive. On three different occasions, the protagonists are surrounded by a gang of assassins that don't know how to beat superheroes.
