    Summary

    "Batman fights in two dimensions. In his twenties, maybe the long-distance ninja-style leaping tackles served him well, but soon he started accumulating too much scar tissue. Heavier armor equals less upward mobility (which is an ironic phrase to use about a billionaire). Nowadays he mostly fights forward and sideways. It’s clever and clinical, but it’s not inspired. Really the main word that comes to mind is “relentless.”

    "Robin fights on all three axes, X, Y, and Z. Dick’s never been able to separate the idea of impossible acrobatics from imaginary numbers. The problem is that sometimes he goes up and up and sideways and forgets which way the ground is, and then Gravity catches him again like an old ornery maiden aunt, even though he was almost sure that this time, finally, he’d left her behind him."

    Short piece comparing and contrasting Dick and Bruce based on advantages and drawbacks of their armor and battle tactics. I just thought it was interesting :)

    Summary

    “I don’t know what makes you think I won’t try to get out of here,” Dick sneered at Slade, at the suit and gear offered to him.

    “Oh, apprentice, I know you won’t." Slade replied. "We wouldn’t want anything to happen to Wallace West, would we?”

    Dick froze, and Slade smiled, a cruel, twisted thing.

    Or: Dick was kidnapped by Slade. This is the aftermath.
