“Damian Knows Best: Part Two,” by Benjamin Percy and artist Diogenes Neves, started off with my full attention Talia is one of my favorite Batman characters and I always enjoy seeing her in comics, movies, television shows, etc. She's one of those characters I feel has a lot of potential, but she isn't used very much. She was just here for the flashback, but I have a feeling in issues to come she will reappear in either flashbacks of future issues or in the present. I also have a feeling that Talia's father is going to show up as well, which is going to be interesting to see.

This issue has a lot of action and I don't think that is going to decrease any time soon, not until they defeat The Demon's Fist. I'm curious to see how they're going to defeat them, but I do know that they have to be a team in order to defeat them. I'm looking forward to seeing what's to come in the next issue and to see who else might appear in Damian's flashbacks. I'm hoping to see more Talia and I'm curious to see when Batman is going to appear (if he's going to appear).

The verdict: I enjoyed this issue and I'm looking forward to seeing what the next issues are going to bring, both with the plot and the characters that may or may not show up. I have a feeling that the next issue is going to be just as action packed as this one.

“Damian Knows Best: Part One,” by Benjamin Percy, Jonboy Meyers, and artist Jim Charalampidis, is an interesting read. It gives the reader a bit of Damian's back story and why he has captured Beastboy, Kid Flash, Raven, and Starfire. Damian wants to bring the Teen Titans back together, now that they have gone their separate ways since Tim Drake “died”. He kidnaps them and holds them hostage to show that they work better together and not alone, which in a way is a good way to show them when they wouldn't listen to just words. However, it's not the best way to convince someone to join your team.

It seems like we'll see the Teen Titans reunited (minus Tim Drake) to help save the world, which is always great to see. It should be good for all the members, to get back into being a team again. Just because Tim is gone, doesn't mean that the team has to be gone. If Tim were really gone, he would want them to continue saving the world and being the Teen Titans. I have a feeling there are going to be some problems with Damian, but I think they will get through those problems and focus on saving the world.

The Verdict: I'm glad to see that the Teen Titans, minus Tim Drake, are back together again. Not only is it good for the readers to see, it's good for the characters. Of course, these characters aren't Teen Titans forever, but in the meantime, they need each other and it's good to see that they see that.
