Pages 141-250:
(1) That last issue really didn't stick the landing.
- On top of being messy, much of the dialogue's composed of people saying either "I am Robin" or "I'm not Robin."
(2) The twist ending may have had more impact if the plot was anything deeper than just zombie fights and bickering ad nauseum.
- It just feels like a convenient shortcut to end a tedious story.

Pages 95-140:
(1) This middle third is written by Fletcher, Fawkes and Bermejo.
- Not exactly top tier talent... and it shows.
(2) Jason and Tim are forced to fight to the death. If that sounds like déjà vu, it's because they already did in "Death of the Family."
- If editorial had any sense, they would've nixed the idea for being repetitive.
- Spoiler: Neither of them die.

Pages 7-94:
(1) This book, at least early on, really makes a point to hammer home that Tim Drake was never technically a "Robin" because his name was ALWAYS "Red Robin."
- Why is he in this then? if we're reminded ad nauseum that he doesn't belong here?
(2) If this story is meant to make me like Duke, it achieves the opposite.
- He's overpowered, impudent, and has no flaws.

Notes:
(1) I never intended to read this now, I wanted to finish "Futures End" first. But there's a snowstorm and blackout in my neck of the woods and without power I can't access any of my eBooks.
- This is the next physical book I plan to read, and so it jumps the queue.
- I guess I could read on my phone, but it would drain the battery at a time when my phone's critical.
