    <body><![CDATA[Part of the joy in reading <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/12732.Grant_Morrison" title="Grant Morrison">Grant Morrison</a>'s comics is the suspense in teetering on the line between genius and incomprehensible.  This book logically follows up a very old, out of continuity story in which Batman has an affair with Ra's al Ghul's daughter Talia.  Now, she had a prepubescent son with...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/11837095">more...</a>]]></body>

As a set-up for a much larger, more involved storyline it shows a lot of promise - Batman finds he has a son who has been genetically engineered from himself and Ra's al Ghul's daughter Talia, who dumpos him on Batman rather uncere...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/51905379">more...</a>]]></body>
