Batman and Robin: Year One

by Mark Waid, Chris Samnee

Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson face the difficult first year of their partnership, as Batman learns to be a mentor and Robin learns what it means to be a hero.

Geek’s cut

Comic-book storytelling with the density of a good tech spec: every panel doing double duty, every line of dialogue carrying lore, emotion, or both.

Deeper dive

Mark Waid and Chris Samnee make the early Batman and Robin partnership feel fresh, focusing on trust, responsibility, and the tension between a father's mission and a son's independence.
