We Are Robin, Volume 2: Jokers by Patrica Mulvihill, Lee Bermejo, Jorge Corona
4.0

Every day, some things end...and others begin. The Robins are all over the place, splintered after the Robin War, and this issue is a glimpse into how everyone is fairing after disbanding. Duke, Izzy, Riko (shout out to those of you who remember her from Gotham Academy; hopefully we see her back some day!), Dax, and Dre feel like failures while trying to return to teenage "normalcy". Of course, just because the Robins aren’t actively being pursued by the GCPD doesn’t mean they get a break. Instead, Affluenza-affected, makeup-wearing Joker-fanboy villain, Smiley, is wreaking havoc on Gotham. Will the Robins be able to turn that frown upside down and put a stop to Smiley and his band of clowns (literal clowns) or will Gotham be once again warned to stay indoors after dark?
