As they try and return to their normal lives, a gang devoted to the rises. Will some of our Robins come out of retirement to deal with this new threat? I found the story kind of boring with very little of merit actually occurring. Jorge Corona's art is NOT very good. Glad to see this book end.

There is no more "we" in each of the new Robins and they each are doing their own things. Whether its finding their lost parents or pursuing a crime-fighting life that they strongly believe in, the story mainly focuses on their individual motives in life and their struggle to believe in the Robin cause that was strongly shook by the Robin law. Coincidentally, this is also the moment when a certain juvenile individual with a facial defect This little event takes place after the "huge" Robin War. Coincidentally, this is also the moment when a certain juvenile individual with a facial defect exits juvie and quickly flips his life upside down. This is the beginning of Smiley and the rise of a bunch of Joker wannabes. I mean, Joker himself is always easily able to find himself a bunch of goons to dress up as him and perpetrate evil around Gotham, so seeing a teenager take the lead wasn't much of a game-changer. Smiley's plans are quite erratic what else are we to expect of a teenager, right? This gave the opportunity to tackle the issues about guns and also change the whole "I" back into "We". The final issue was a nice wrap-up for the whole series not just this volume. The connection and the little wink wink to The Nest at the end were nice. I have to say that this series really had nice ideas, but the execution could've been so much better. The artwork isn't that revolutionary, but I guess it still remains part of the identity of the series. May 30, Christy rated it really liked it. Every day, some things end The Robins are all over the place, splintered after the Robin War, and this issue is a glimpse into how everyone is fairing after disbanding. Duke, Izzy, Riko shout out to those of you who remember her from Gotham Academy; hopefully we see her back some day! Inste Every day, some things end Instead, Affluenza-affected, makeup-wearing Joker-fanboy villain, Smiley, is wreaking havoc on Gotham. Will the Robins be able to turn that frown upside down and put a stop to Smiley and his band of clowns literal clowns or will Gotham be once again warned to stay indoors after dark?

The Robins get back together to save the school from the Jokers, and they realize they need each other more than just for fighting crime, but also as friends. In fact, when one of their group takes it upon himself to rob Wayne Manor with a crew of criminals, the Robins re-suit up and stop them, helping their friend escape it all. This title was very short overall, but provided a youthful and modern expression of "Robin". I know that Duke Thomas will be be continuing his adventures in the post-Rebirth main Batman title, so I am anxious to see what his next step is. Volume recommend. Series with the Robin War in it recommended, especially if you want a new perspective on what it means to be "Robin". May 11, Wing Kee rated it did not like it. I just want this to end. World: The art is fine, nothing special. World building is spotty and illogical just like the entire premise of this series. Story: The story is choppy and the villain this arc was just unappealing, it was paced a bit better than the previous arc but not by much. The separate stories for each character was better but as I said in the last arc, they are all racial stereotypes which annoyed. This series ends with this arc and I'm so happy. This is garbage. Characters: Th I just want this to end. Characters: There is more effort to give motivation for the characters here. But choppy writing still hinders these characters and also not a lot of appeal at all. This series is ended yeah!!!! Onward to the next book! Jan 18, Ronald rated it it was ok Shelves: comics. I loved the story in the first volume of We Are Robin. But between Vol 1 and here there was an epic world changing monstrous crossover event which besides sucking to high heaven and being generally a terrible idea and story it ruined the We Are Robin comic. This volume is the team recovering from something that did not even happen in their own comic book. It was stupid and angsty and lame. I mean the best thi I loved the story in the first volume of We Are Robin. I mean the best thing the creative team can come up with is another Joker story? An hour passes and no one has been sent in to collect Duke and when he turns the door handle he finds it unlocked and that the police station was in-fact just one room inside a warehouse. Also inside the warehouse is a motorbike a leather jacket embroidered with the "R" insignia of Robin and a phone telling him to meet up with the Robins nearby. The Robins are all sat upon a rooftop when Duke arrives; he briefs them on the situation with the bombs and they all compare information regarding the man who is running things and who recruited them all. The first bomb target is the Gotham Hall of Records, across the street from them. The Nest's video surveillance follows the underground army's preacher, explaining that he is a puppet of a much larger evil. Sign In Don't have an account? Start a Wiki.

Though the fight seems too difficult for the young heroes [[Riko Sheri My career of choice has crazy hours, bad benefits, and doesn't pay. But it's the dream I never knew I always had. Mom, dad I'm going into the business. I hope I live to tell you all about it. Contents [ show ]. Categories :. It starts out with the We Are Robin Gang witnessing We Are Robin: Jokers picks up where the previous trade paperback left off, collecting the last six issues 7—12 of the on- going series. It was all a rouse to free the other Robins that are tapped in bird cages hanging above. Together, they fight the Talons and free themselves from their prison. The group was disbanded and for the most part the rest of the group goes on with life as usual. Duke Thomas finally finds his parents, who were John and Jane Does in one of the many mental hospitals in Gotham City. Andre "Dre" Cipriani decides to go solo on the vigilante business and Daxton "Dax" Chill is busy making gadgets similar to Batman's in his free time. Meanwhile, a rival group is trying to fill the vacuum that the Robin group created when the disassembled. However, instead of doing good they are committing crimes — in the name of the Joker. Meanwhile, Daxton Chill and Isabella Ortiz manage to infiltrate the school using a homemade grappling gun that Daxton Chill invented. In the end, the former Robin team save the day and together decided to regroup again — this time without "The Nest" as their mysterious benefactor. The last issue We Are Robin 12 is a one-shot that deals with a former Robin member that has gotten himself in a bit of trouble and is pleading for help. He was a gymnast on the varsity team of his high school, but had to quit and turn down his scholarship, because of his injury. Disillusioned, he got himself in trouble with a group of criminals that is about to burgle a penthouse belonging to . His plea for help was responded by the Robin group — in their new uniforms, which successfully stopped the crime. Lee Bermejo wrote the entire trade paperback and for the most part, I really liked what he has written. It was rather interesting to read the ordinary day lives of the Robins and experienced how diverse the group really is. I just wished that Bermejo could have spent more time with these individuals before the series ended. It seemed like just when we are getting to know these Robins it is time to say goodbye — perhaps forever. I will miss getting to know them more — I was a tad disappointed that we didn't get to know Daxton Chill more — I was hoping to have a story center on him and his family inclusion into the Batman mythos. There were so many more stories to tell, before it was dropped from serialization. We Are Robin: Jokers has two pencilers. For the most part, I liked Corona's penciling style — Di Giandomenico's not so much. Artistically they didn't really complement each other all that well, but since Di Giandomenico's issue was at the beginning the flow, artistically speaking, wasn't so bad. The series as a whole was executed rather well. I enjoyed the premise of the series — it's a really different take on the Robin mantle. As mentioned earlier, I just wished there were more issues to dive into the many stories that these characters could have brought. Also mentioned earlier, it was like we were getting to know each other and slowly becoming friends when it was yanked from serialization. All in all, We Are Robin: Jokers is a wonderful conclusion for the series. It is a lovely series that I quite enjoyed reading, I just there were more character development and have them together with a few more adventures. Regardless, it was a wonderful read. Jul 23, Vincent rated it liked it Shelves: fiction , comics. The premise of the operation was interesting but not explored. The images are poignant enough. The one that got me is the one where Duke is spoon-feeding his mother. Though he cherishes his experiences as a Robin, he feels he has no other option. He succumbs to his sense of filial piety and agrees to help a group of thieves rob Bruce Wayne. One Robin speaks to another and so on and so on until a small group of the story-core Robins come together to stop the robbers and reclaim one of their own. One of the best scenes is a short one where one Robin asks another who the Robin in trouble is? They had had been downcast at the order to disband from the original Robins, by their vilification by formal law enforcement, and their capture by the Owls. Dec 30, Cale rated it did not like it. Maybe it's just the timing of reading this, but the major conflict in this volume armed Joker wannabe kids taking over a school was gross and unjustified. After a crossover issue from Robin War, we're dumped into a new Status Quo where the whole Robin thing has basically been dumped, and instead we're left with a core group of mopey kids who weren't memorable in the first place now being even more unmemorable trying to decide if they want to be Robins or not. And then we have the villainous Sm Maybe it's just the timing of reading this, but the major conflict in this volume armed Joker wannabe kids taking over a school was gross and unjustified. And then we have the villainous Smiley Joker Jr. His motivations are terrible both terribly defined and terrible in action , and nobody in the entire volume seems to be doing anything worthwhile. It's all a lot of waffling and whining. The final issue at least tries something a little different and provides a hint of closure to what happened in the first volume, but overall this series died a death that it totally deserved. While it might have had something interesting in its original concept, the execution never worked. The art wasn't terrible, but it wasn't particularly good either I couldn't tell a number of the characters apart, which is never a good sign. I think 4 Robins in the DC Universe is plenty. Well, maybe 5. Jul 13, Jordan rated it did not like it. This was just terrible. Some loser kid becomes a Joker copycat and so he basically acts like the Joker or a badly written Joker. There's no originality here in the villain. It's just the Joker but it's not, so why should you care? The book doesn't seem to be saying anything by having a Joker copycat either Where does this character end up he just sort of vanishes after an anticlimactic defeat. I also really hate the art in this book. Everybody looks so hi This was just terrible. Everybody looks so hideously ugly. This book, about a bunch of kids becoming freelance Robins, lives or dies by you knowing who all these kids are and liking their characters. After 12 issues I still didn't know most of their names, personalities, or anything. They never established any chemistry with each other. I don't know what they think about each other. Ensemble books should be balancing fun characters who you want to see in all sorts of stories and conflicts. This utterly failed at that. I also have a problem with the idea that just any kid can be a superhero if they wanna be and be so awesome at it. How are all these kids not totally dead within moments? They're jumping off roofs and stuff as if they trained for years. Jul 26, JM S rated it liked it. Who also did the first volume of this book along with the same artists. Volume 1 is a very mediocre book, while it has a lot potential it ended up being bland. The characters, story, and the writing as well was very mixed. Unfortunately, it's pretty much the same for volume 2. Volume 2 took place after the Robin War storyline. Which was also has the same problems for this one. Now this one has the same problems as volume 1, again this book has a very decent premise. The start of this book was actually quite decent and the introduction of the villain for this volume is quite nice as well. But then, it kinda falls apart towards the end. Because we really didn't get a lot more for the villain and the characters are once again not really interesting. They barely even explore them imo and that the dialogue is very mixed again as well. The story was okay, but again, I found it to be a bit lacking like the first one I think overall, volume 2 has the same positives and negatives as the first one. The premise was again decent and it starts off fairly well. It however starts to fall apart towards the end and that I wished the villain was a bit more used. So it was a bland and forgettable book in the end. Both volume 1 and volume 2. This book had a moment in it, a bit of dialogue, that was jarring, to the point where it reminded me of something from an HBO show, graphic and uncensored. It reminded me of a vertigo book. In the nineties, DC would venture into this territory, sometimes blurring the lines between your regular superhero book and a vertigo title. Nowadays, that line is very distinct, there is not a lot of graphic content in your typical DC book. It was only a short moment, in this book, and then we were brought t This book had a moment in it, a bit of dialogue, that was jarring, to the point where it reminded me of something from an HBO show, graphic and uncensored. It was only a short moment, in this book, and then we were brought to a school shooting, where none of the students were shot. I by no means, want to see a school shooting, in any kind of media. It is probably one of the most upsetting things I could imagine. However, if a writer is going to bring in that kind of intense subject matter into a book, I want them to show just how awful it is. It shouldn't be used only to build suspense. Jul 03, Sharla rated it really liked it. I really enjoy this group of characters and the story it tells about Gotham and its relationship to the people it creates. I especially appreciated the Batman vs. Joker vs. Robin comparison. My only complaint, and this is a young book, is that I want to spend more time with each of the characters so that I feel like I know them better. We get little hints, especially with Duke, but the book does leave me wanting more. Oct 24, Michelle Cristiani rated it liked it Shelves: graphic- novel-batman. Loved the beginning with a capital L, and loved the way the story came together - but something about the art didn't exactly fit for me - I had trouble distinguishing actors and action sometimes. Still, solid. Jan 15, Rachel rated it liked it. I didn't read the Robin War arc so I was a bit lost while going through this volume. However, I still found myself enjoying this volume of "We Are Robin". Not too much to say except that I love how diverse the cast of characters is. Jun 09, Adan rated it it was amazing. I really hope these kids show up somewhere in Rebirth. I certainly like them better than I like Damian :P. Jul 17, Joseph rated it really liked it Shelves: comics-graphic-novels. Really liked this series, and hope we see these characters again. I know Duke Thomas is bound for glory, but I really enjoyed the other kids as well. May 19, Yohjideranged rated it liked it. Really not enough character development to care. First book was better but didn't hold through to the second. May 15, Nicole rated it liked it Shelves: action , western-comics , superhero. I enjoyed the content and like the characters and want to see more of their adventures, but the plot felt all over the place. This trade starts with some scenes from the end of the Robin War event, an event that has a big impact on all of these characters but that we don't actually get to read here. The Court of Owls part is just dropped out of no where as well. I guess this is more of a complaint against the superhero comic industry and how they make trades as a whole rather than just against t I enjoyed the content and like the characters and want to see more of their adventures, but the plot felt all over the place. I guess this is more of a complaint against the superhero comic industry and how they make trades as a whole rather than just against this particular book, but it felt like we can't get the full story by just reading this and the previous trade. Feb 26, M. A worthy sequel, and one in which we see our budding heroes trying to figure out their place in a society that isn't fair to them. I'd love to see this on TV or maybe the big screen at some point. Diverse characters, relatable sp? There are so many angles they can run with this. Feb 16, Krystl Louwagie rated it liked it. Art was good. I feel like I connected to to story a little less in this volume, though. Would still read more, but not totally invested. Dec 04, Kathleen rated it liked it Shelves: fiction , comics , read-in After the trouble with the Court of Owls, the Robins try to figure out who they are and what they want to be doing. Some keep up the fight. Some try to go return to their ordinary lives. Almost immediately, the question is put to the test by a school shooter. In keeping with the activist nature of their movement, the Robins empower others to fight back, as they do everything they can to help. This is a good trade. I feel like the series is settling into its potential a little. I'd recommend it fo After the trouble with the Court of Owls, the Robins try to figure out who they are and what they want to be doing. I'd recommend it for readers who enjoy superheroes without superpowers. There are no discussion topics on this book yet. We Are Robin, Volume 2: Jokers by Lee Bermejo

The book doesn't seem to be saying anything by having a Joker copycat either Where does this character end up he just sort of vanishes after an anticlimactic defeat. I also really hate the art in this book. Everybody looks so hi This was just terrible. Everybody looks so hideously ugly. This book, about a bunch of kids becoming freelance Robins, lives or dies by you knowing who all these kids are and liking their characters. After 12 issues I still didn't know most of their names, personalities, or anything. They never established any chemistry with each other. I don't know what they think about each other. Ensemble books should be balancing fun characters who you want to see in all sorts of stories and conflicts. This utterly failed at that. I also have a general problem with the idea that just any kid can be a superhero if they wanna be and be so awesome at it. How are all these kids not totally dead within moments? They're jumping off roofs and stuff as if they trained for years. Jul 26, JM S rated it liked it. Who also did the first volume of this book along with the same artists. Volume 1 is a very mediocre book, while it has a lot potential it ended up being bland. The characters, story, and the writing as well was very mixed. Unfortunately, it's pretty much the same for volume 2. Volume 2 took place after the Robin War storyline. Which was also has the same problems for this one. Now this one has the same problems as volume 1, again this book has a very decent premise. The start of this book was actually quite decent and the introduction of the villain for this volume is quite nice as well. But then, it kinda falls apart towards the end. Because we really didn't get a lot more for the villain and the characters are once again not really interesting. They barely even explore them imo and that the dialogue is very mixed again as well. The story was okay, but again, I found it to be a bit lacking like the first one I think overall, volume 2 has the same positives and negatives as the first one. The premise was again decent and it starts off fairly well. It however starts to fall apart towards the end and that I wished the villain was a bit more used. So it was a bland and forgettable book in the end. Both volume 1 and volume 2. This book had a moment in it, a bit of dialogue, that was jarring, to the point where it reminded me of something from an HBO show, graphic and uncensored. It reminded me of a vertigo book. In the nineties, DC would venture into this territory, sometimes blurring the lines between your regular superhero book and a vertigo title. Nowadays, that line is very distinct, there is not a lot of graphic content in your typical DC book. It was only a short moment, in this book, and then we were brought t This book had a moment in it, a bit of dialogue, that was jarring, to the point where it reminded me of something from an HBO show, graphic and uncensored. It was only a short moment, in this book, and then we were brought to a school shooting, where none of the students were shot. I by no means, want to see a school shooting, in any kind of media. It is probably one of the most upsetting things I could imagine. However, if a writer is going to bring in that kind of intense subject matter into a book, I want them to show just how awful it is. It shouldn't be used only to build suspense. Jul 03, Sharla rated it really liked it. I really enjoy this group of characters and the story it tells about Gotham and its relationship to the people it creates. I especially appreciated the Batman vs. Joker vs. Robin comparison. My only complaint, and this is a young book, is that I want to spend more time with each of the characters so that I feel like I know them better. We get little hints, especially with Duke, but the book does leave me wanting more. Oct 24, Michelle Cristiani rated it liked it Shelves: graphic-novel-batman. Loved the beginning with a capital L, and loved the way the story came together - but something about the art didn't exactly fit for me - I had trouble distinguishing actors and action sometimes. Still, solid. Jan 15, Rachel rated it liked it. I didn't read the Robin War arc so I was a bit lost while going through this volume. However, I still found myself enjoying this volume of "We Are Robin". Not too much to say except that I love how diverse the cast of characters is. Jun 09, Adan rated it it was amazing. I really hope these kids show up somewhere in Rebirth. I certainly like them better than I like Damian :P. Jul 17, Joseph rated it really liked it Shelves: comics-graphic-novels. Really liked this series, and hope we see these characters again. I know Duke Thomas is bound for glory, but I really enjoyed the other kids as well. May 19, Yohjideranged rated it liked it. Really not enough character development to care. First book was better but didn't hold through to the second. May 15, Nicole rated it liked it Shelves: action , western-comics , superhero. I enjoyed the content and like the characters and want to see more of their adventures, but the plot felt all over the place. This trade starts with some scenes from the end of the Robin War event, an event that has a big impact on all of these characters but that we don't actually get to read here. The Court of Owls part is just dropped out of no where as well. I guess this is more of a complaint against the superhero comic industry and how they make trades as a whole rather than just against t I enjoyed the content and like the characters and want to see more of their adventures, but the plot felt all over the place. I guess this is more of a complaint against the superhero comic industry and how they make trades as a whole rather than just against this particular book, but it felt like we can't get the full story by just reading this and the previous trade. Feb 26, M. A worthy sequel, and one in which we see our budding heroes trying to figure out their place in a society that isn't fair to them. I'd love to see this on TV or maybe the big screen at some point. Diverse characters, relatable sp? There are so many angles they can run with this. Feb 16, Krystl Louwagie rated it liked it. Art was good. I feel like I connected to to story a little less in this volume, though. Would still read more, but not totally invested. Product Details About the Author. Related Searches.
