DC Comics Universe and Young Justice #18 Spoilers and Review follows.
Stephanie Brown Hates Tim Drake’s New Costume!
He’ll Ditch It Soon As Batman’s Robin Again!
Tim Drake catches up with his girlfriend Stephanie Brown aka Spoiler who is on a mission…
…in Central City. Interestingly, she too hates Tim Drake’s new costume and likely his new nom du guerre too.
Turns out she’s on a mission to take down her super-villain father the Cluemaster.
He just wants to be left alone and wants nothing to do with Gotham City anymore and its Batman affiliated super-heroes including his own daughter.
As Tim and Stephanie are en route to the Cluemaster, Drake signals the Young Justice team to join them; seems like overkill for the Cluemaster “threat”.
However, when they reach him, the Cluemaster takes down Drake very easily leaving him to talk to his daughter.
However, they take him down as…
…Young Justice arrives and…
…they step into their next adventure as Wonder Girl needs their help!
Oh, and Tim Drake ends the issue as Robin in name and costume!
The Pulse:
More of a Tim Drake team-up issue than a Young Justice issue. A compelling story which felt choppy at parts. Two different artists had jarring art styles, but would have been good in their own right solo. The cliffhanger is intriguing. 6 out of 10.
