Batman and Robin No. 6

Published by DC Comics. Written by Grant Morrison. Pencils by Philip Tan. Inks by Jonathan Glapion.

The Deal: Grant Morrison churns out another issue of his new Bat-book, which stars the new Batman (ex-Robin/Nightwing Dick Grayson) and the new Robin (Batman's asshole bastard son).

The Verdict: WTF just happened? I read this issue, like, twice, and I have no idea what's going on here. In other words, Morrison is doing what he's known for — crafting weird and ambiguous superhero tales. The art is pretty horrendous in places, using heavy blacks to cover up flaws. I'm not feeling this issue one bit.
