Lee Bermejo

eBook - 2016

A modern spin on the original teen superhero! In a Gotham City ravaged by the Joker, Batman alone is not enough to keep the peace-and just one Robin isn't nearly enough to back him up. Now, teenagers who want to make a difference are coming together in droves and adopting the "R." They're not a gang. They're not sidekicks. They are Robin. When Duke Thomas is recruited by the mysterious Nest to join teens from all different backgrounds and walks of life in the Robins, he hopes that they can help him find his missing parents. Instead, they find something much more nefarious-an underground conspiracy that threatens to bring down Gotham. Now it's up to these untrained teen vigilantes to save the city from a mysteri...ous evil force. But being Robin is dangerous. Robins die. Will these new heroes face the same fate? Features DC SNEAK PEEK: WE ARE ROBIN #1!

Review by Library Journal Review

This "Robin" designates a sort of Baker Street Irregulars for the Batman operation, made up of disaffected teens: rebellious, inspired by charismatic heroes, and itching for something cool to do. Moreover, they reflect the city's ethnic variety. When newbie Duke Thomas discovers a conspiracy to blow up city landmarks, the team finds out that the vigilante life brings tragedy, opprobrium, and self-doubt. Colorful, well-designed, unpretty art. Teens and adults. © Copyright 2016. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
