The Rundown: Robin goes on an undercover mission with some unwanted help from Supergirl.
Batman and Superman are on a mission in Bolivia to stop a plot from both Toyman and Mad Hatter that has enslaved a town. Batman lets Superman know that Robin is on a mission to infiltrate a LexCorp front to discover what they are working on and they both decide to send Supergirl to act as his backup.
As Robin infiltrates the facility, Supergirl watches and begins to admire him before swooping in to help and discovers that the facility is creating kryptonite. With the pair captured, they have to find a way to put aside their differences and work together to find a way to escape.
The Story: Waid and Russell craft a fun and entertaining story in this issue. I like the dynamic between Robin and Supergirl and how their relationship is evolving in parallel to the friendship between Batman and Superman. I like the lighter tone of the story as well as the moments of comedy. Just a fun, engaging issue from start to finish.
The Art: Meyer delivers fun, visually thrilling and beautifully detailed art throughout the issue. I love the visuals and character designs.
