James Jr scares the hell out of me, maybe even more than the masks because he is just a random bloke, so any issue with him in it I am going to really like.
Also anything with Dick and Babs together makes the romantic in me feel warm and fuzzy.
Freaking love Batman, going to read part 2 right now, let's see what James Jr is up too, or maybe he is actually innocent???

A great start, shame it had to be split up but as this collection tends to be 7 max. The full run was a bit too much but it’s all good gives me the other half to look forward to.
