Tim's going out on his first date. Well . . . not his "first" date, but his first date with Zoanne. She moved to Gotham recently, and just started going to Tim's school. She's also been tutoring him, which is how they met and became friends. He's trying really hard to impress her, but he's stumbling about a lot. You know, how everyone does on their first date. Well, he has another problem, there's something going on down town, and the Bat-Signal is shining right on the restaurant. Tim wants to help Bruce, but he's also having a good time with his date and doesn't want to do anything to spoil that. I have to say, he does a pretty good job ignoring it, especially knowing how much he's itching to get out there. But then, accidentally, Batman brings the fight to him, when he and the perp coming crashing through the window of the restaurant. But in the confusion Tim does lend a hand, without anyone being wise to it, by knocking the guy out with a serving tray. He finishes his date and takes Zo home. And then he goes out on patrol with Batman. Man, for just being a 15 or 16 year old, Tim sure does have a lot of demands on his life. But he seems like a pretty balanced kid. I think that Adam Beecher is doing a pretty good job with the story and the characters in this book. And, although at first I didn't really like Freddie E. Williams II, he is growing on me. His work seems to get better with every issue.
