Batman War Games Act Two: Tides

One of the things I really enjoy about the Bat titles is that they all work independently of each other. Not so much so that the character couldn't be doing everything at the same time (the feeling I get is that they take place within weeks of one another) but they're also close enough that when DC decides to do the big crossover event the story can spin out naturally.

I sort of knew that Tim Drake had stopped being Robin for a while because of his father and this Act deals with him putting the costume back on. I felt that it read really well, both why Tim made the decision and how it was received by his dad. That really impressed me. That they would take time from the superhero story to tell a human story.
