Writer Meghan Fitzmartin sets the tone of future Gotham as she leads Tim Drake on a simple race to disrupt a shipment of Lazarus Resin. Bringing back a member of We Are Robin provides some fun moments, but one particularly sloppy plot moment neuters that momentum. When a wanted felon can openly search through a fascist police state's computer system in an open office, you've got to wonder if the Magistr🎐ate really is competent enough to take over Gotham.
Still, there's🎶 lots to like in the interactions between Tim, Darcy, and Spoiler. The snappy pace makes this first half of this two-part limited series a breeze to read. Fitzmartin doesn't shy away from sound effects either, which add a real senꦑse of kinetic energy and are brought to vivid life by letterer Pat Brosseau.
Eddy Barrows' heavily textured approach fits the g𒉰enerally gritty atmosphere, but his realistic style leads to a couple of unintentionally amusing facial expressions. Ultimately, he finishes strong with a killer last page, enriched by Adriano Lucas's atmospheric use of glowing green and orange.
With high moments and low, Futureꦕ State Robin Eternal #1 is one for the Tim Drake faithful.
Of course, Tim Drake is one of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best incarnations of Robin.
