Batman & Robin #6


Red Hood has captured the dynamic duo, stripping them out of their costumes. In doing so he has set up a telethon to see if people are happier with the Red Hood's way of justice. If so they can call in and see the true faces of Batman & Robin if they hit one million callers. Through the broad cast shot are fired and Flamingo shows up getting in a tussle with Hood 7 Scarlet. The next few pages get pretty violent with someone getting shot in the back and being paralyzed from the waist down. Now I must say this character Flamingo I don't really see the need for him. He is just a pastel colored version of the Joker only with who is not as methodical. Don't get me wrong the Joker does have moments when he is sporadic. But what makes him such an intriguing character is his insanity. I hope Morrison does not bring this character up more in other issues. I think he is someone we can live without. Now this issue was not as good as the last, and because of this I would not recommend purchasing this issue. If you have the chance to read it in your local shop it is worth taking a gander at.
