Small note on issue 22:
I had thought to do comic book reviews during the break. Since I missed so many I planned to review them as rereading the graphic novels.... Yeah, didn't get to it. I will eventually. One thing I would say about the issue before last- The Dick/Babs interaction was heartening and extremely interesting in the larger picture. (Like the most recent issue having young Dick point out that she's good at everything.) It has all the indications of serious romance, and yet we just saw a incorrigible flirt and an implied one night stand with Bette, and no hint of jealousy on Bab's side. Intriguing. Oh- I finally took noted he wears his escrima sticks on a hip holster and not the traditional back scabbard. You lose the cool draw, but the more I think of it it makes sense. Aside from a little torque, the thigh doesn't move. The back moves all over the place, and Dick's way of moving is extremely fluid.
