VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
Written by Chuck Dixon Art by Chris Batista Cover by Freddie E. Williams II
With the return of new series writer Chuck Dixon (Robin, Nightwing, Batman) and art by fan-favorite Chris Batista (52, Legion of Superheroes), Robin #170 is the start of a new era no one will want to miss! After a life-changing battle with Ra’s al Ghul in Nanda Parbat, Robin comes home to Gotham to find there’s a new girl in town, wearing a color he can’t ignore. The new vigilante calls herself Violet, and she steals from the rich to keep for herself…and Robin’s going to find out that’s not all she’s playing for. Plus, the return of an old friend with something to hide!
"It’s Chuck Dixon’s first issue back as writer, and ‘back’ seems like the perfect word to describe this issue. After all, classic Dixon-era supporting cast members are back, there’s an awful lot of speculation as to whether or not Stephanie ‘Spoiler’ Brown is back, but mostly the key thing is that Robin is back to being a solid, self-contained action-adventure comic, solidly written and solidly drawn. That’s not such a bad thing to come back to every month."
