review:
'Batman & The Signal' by Scott Snyder and Tony Patrick with art by Cully Hamner and Declan Shalvey takes the Duke Thomas character and makes him a hero. At least he's not another Robin.

He was never meant to be a Robin. Batman has been training Duke for something. Only Batman seemed to know what. He's been a decent enough support team member for the Batman team. Suddenly he seems to have meta powers and a new resolve to be the protector of Gotham during the day. He soon finds other metas that are strangely attracted to him, and he means to get to the bottom of things.

It's a book made up of the back up stories in All Star Batman. The stories are short chapters, and they are ok, but nothing really compelling. I did really like the art. It had a clean style that really appealed to me. I'm curious to see where they take this character, but I wish his debut as a hero had been a bit better.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from DC Comics and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
