Consistent fun that keeps delivering on lighthearted Batfamily content. More characters, more shenanigans, and more jokes, it continues to capture audiences with its fresh perspective and tone.

More Catwoman, Harley, and Ivy?? I’m so here for this👏

[Rod Brown · Rating 3 out of 5]

More of the same: if you've enjoyed previous volumes of the Bat-family having comedic adventures and emotional breakthroughs while hanging around Wayne Manor or helping each other in the field, you'll like this one.

Actually, this one may be just a half-step off from the previous volumes as there are a few more villain fights than usual, and maybe I'm getting a little too bored with the concept or the creator is starting to struggle to find new iterations of the feel-good formula. Still more good than blah though.

Kind of surprised to see Bluebird and Huntress added to the already sprawling cast, but they were used well. Still almost entirely fluff, but that's what I'm here for.

TIMMY YOU'RE SO CUTE ILY

[Jess · Rating 5 out of 5]

The five stars is honestly mostly for nightwing-rabbit and the Zatanna of it all, but I continue to be utterly charmed by this series!!! The Tim and Damian bit was also a standout, BOYS!!!!

no criticism i know it’s not “real batfam” i know i know but god i do not care

[alexander shay · Rating 4 out of 5]

I had no idea this series existed until it came in at the library. It looked silly and cute so I figured I would give it a try. I was expecting more of a continuous story, but these 'issues' (or episodes, to use the term in the comic itself) are all essentially small one-shots. Everyone is a bit silly, some characters more than others, while still feeling at least a little connected to their canon personalities. Basically just a fluffy family dynamic, and holy heck the number of bat-people/new robins has proliferated since I stopped reading DC regularly. Keeping everyone straight outside the main 3 Robins was definitely hard for me. I don't know if I would recommend reading the whole thing straight through either; I enjoyed it but I almost didn't want to keep reading the series because it does get to be a bit repetitive after 25 'episodes' back to back. Definitely some gem stories/panels in each volume though.

[The Sapphic Nerd · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is such a wholesome read that shows the Bat family's dynamics in such a normal way. Individuals have their struggles, but the family helps each other get through them. It's so beautiful.

Harper Row and Cullen Row have Black Lab and Orange Cat energy.

"Batman works alone" has got to be one of the biggest perpetual myths in all of casual pop culture.
Heck, even the campy Adam West show has him constantly work with the Watson-to-his-Holmes Robin, so it SHOULD not have kept on perpetuating.
So it's very refreshing to see some stories of the crime-fighting found family of Gotham show more & more sides of these various characters that have amassed themselves around the Dark Knight Detective.

What's very interesting is that despite being a shenanigan-based series, there are also some strips that focus a LOT on the respective members and how they relate to each other without a hint of Batman about. A particularly good one involve Tim Drake and Damian Wayne hashing out how they got over their beef with each other, unknowingly having had lived in each other's shadow. Also a pretty good one was Barbara Gordon doing a lot to entrap a criminal both as Oracle and the daughter of Jim Gordon.
Probably my favorite lil bits of Batman life involve more characters from the DC universe, with Zatanna stopping a villain on stage with Bruce Wayne as the "volunteer from the audience," Poison Ivy teaching Spoiler how to take care of houseplants while watching over a recovering Harley Quinn, and Batman, despite being the best at almost everything, forgetting he was cooking an omelet because Superman called him to talk about a case, and thus nearly burning down his kitchen.
Great stuff from creators that just GET the Bat-family characters.

muchas cosas que decir entre el capítulo de poison ivy y harley queen damian en tacones bárbara siendo genuinamente perfecta y sobretodo la charla entre tim y damian… amo a mi familia

[Vanyel Declark · Rating 5 out of 5]

Light reading with humour woven throughout. No over arching plot but that isn’t a detractor as they still move at a decent pace through the mini stories ranging from paintball fights to school picture day. A nice breath of fresh air for the typical grit and grime of Batman and his brood.

The only part that I didn’t love was in its printed format it’s clear the images weren’t meant to scale to the size they are in the physical copy so they can get pixelated or blurry.
