Robin #153 - DC


Tim has teamed up with the new Capt. Boomerang. At least for this issue. Last issue they found a Nuke in one of the Joker's old hideouts. Or at least they found where a Nuke used to be. So they find out from one of Gotham's rotating underlings, that Joker had kept it as a contingency plan, and it was set to blow in the next 24 hours. Luckily, Capt. Boomerang had a list of old hideouts that he got from Luthor when he was in the Society for a short while. So basically, he and Tim just start going from joint to joint trying to find where the bomb might be. The repoir between the two of them was actually very entertaining. Even Tim hated to admit it, but they made a pretty good team. During the course of looking for it, they come across a meta kid, who calls himself Dodge, and wants Robin to be his mentor. Apparently he can teleport, or something. We really don't learn to much about him, 'cause Robin cuts him really short because he so stressed about the bomb. So I'm sure thier abrubt meeting is going to come back to haunt Robin. Anyways they find the bomb and difuse it. They have a little conversation and go their separate ways. It was a decent story. A bit predictable. But ok. We learn some more about Tim, and it's still a Batman story.
