"Powerful effects and sharp characterization."--Publishers Weekly
"Watching [Robin] struggle to reconcile his mother's cold-blooded anger with his father's compassion and nobility (and not a little outright arrogance from both sides of the family tree) has been one of the highlights of the comics reading experience in recent years."--Maxim
"This is the kind of Batman story I like to read: an actual mystery with an emotional hook."--The Onion AV Club
