Batman #415
A visually interesting story but it's irritating that another non-Batman? issue is referenced as being key to filling in subplot.
I'd not heard of the Fluronic Man before.

Batman Annual #11
I really liked this daft 'Penguin in Love' story. I'm not entirely sure what the point of it was but it was a fun read that highlighted both Penguin and Batman had different sides to them.

At least I now know who the Teen Titans are 😆 Nightwing is a bit of a whinger in this issue, Batman admits he's lonely and Robin is an accident waiting to happen.

Now this is more like it. A grittier Batman is looking for a serial killer. The shift in tone is superb. Things get personal for Batman, he makes mistakes and The Dumpster Killer is a nasty piece of work.
Maybe Jim Starlin is a name I should look out for more.

As seems to be the case with these older stories, plot is purely a mechanism to get from A to B, and is fluff at best. Its the organic 'family' life and high values that stand out. I do like how real everyone seems to be.

A strange tale that dips into the arts and how its perceived. Seems mime is unpopular. 😆
Heavy metal Simon & Garfunkul. Seems the youth of Gotham like it. I might be more on Camilla Cameo's side. Shocking!

I do like how nasty Two-Face can be but his reliance on the number two leads to some ridiculously convoluted schemes. How Batman and Robin solve these puzzles is convenience gone mad.
Still, lots of fun with fantastic artwork.

A fun Two-Face story. A ballsy move to try and steal millions based on the idea that the guards won't shoot into crowds of innocent people.
I like that Jason Todd is now aware of who may have killed his parents. Exciting times ahead.

And so Robin is back...
I'm loving the artwork and the simplistic, fun storytelling.

Although I do seem to be reading a Batman origin story every 5 issues, this was an enjoyable.
Mrs. Gunn was clearly a wrong 'un. It makes me smile how the 'brilliant' Batman doesn't see it.
I'm sure I read a story with Jason Todd the other day. 🤔
