☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis oversized hardcover collects the complete run of Frank Miller and Jim Lee's controversial and stylized take on the early days of Batman and Robin, originally published as the 2005-2008 series. The story reimagines a younger, more brutal Batman as he recruits a pre-teen Dick Grayson to become his partner, with a bombastic, over-the-top tone that polarized fans. The Absolute edition presents the material in a deluxe format with enhanced production values, including the full 10-issue run plus extensive sketchbook material and behind-the-scenes content.
"Episode 1" of Absolute All-Star Batman & Robin, the Boy Wonder delivers a sharp, high-stakes encounter between Batman and Green Lantern, set against a backdrop of suspicion and escalating tension. Written by Frank Miller and brought to life with dynamic art by Jim Lee, Scott Williams, and Alex Sinclair, the story kicks off with a striking visual twist: Robin has painted everything yellow, disrupting Green Lantern’s power ring—and leaving both heroes questioning who’s really in control. Cover by Jim Lee and Scott Williams captures the moment’s intensity, setting the stage for a deeply personal journey as Batman confronts his own choices while guiding Robin through a haunting mission in a graveyard.

Batman and Green Lantern meet but Batman had Robin paint everything yellow so Green Lantern's ring can't operate on any of it.

Green Lantern starts to leave, but then is told his ring is missing and Robin has it. Green Lantern tries to retrieve it, but Robin crushes his windpipe. Batman performs an emergency tracheotomy and realizes he has rushed things with Robin. Batman decides to rectify that, takes him to a graveyard, and tells him to find his parents.
