Batman and Robin and Howard: Summer Breakdown

Jeffrey Brown

Damian and Howard are teaming up to face an all-new mastermind villain who is ready to demolish their favorite soccer spot!

Summer is in session and that means all the neighborhood patrols, soccer games, and snacks the boys can handle. But things take an unexpected turn when a new group of heroes, known as the Hero Club, approach Damian and Howard with an unusual offer--an invitation to help unmask the corporation planning to build a recycling factory in their favorite park. Together, they hope to recruit the help of Metropolis's favorite reporter.

If that weren't enough, Batman has been acting strangely and disappearing for stretches of time. And there are ninja everywhere...What could possibly be going on?

Get ready for this laugh-out-loud sequel from beloved New York Times bestselling author-illustrator Jeffrey Brown.

Praise for this book

"...Brown excels at depicting the inner lives of children, and, in particular, their relationships with their parents, which, in Damian's case, can naturally be somewhat fraught (lots of kids have to deal with divorced parents pulling them in different directions, but the list of kids whose parents are a literal superhero and an actual supervillain is considerably shorter)." -- School Library Journal/Good Comics for Kids

"Brown writes a great Batman, one who is, whatever else he might be, totally and thoroughly a dad." -- School Library Journal/Good Comics for Kids

"After reading Batman and Robin and Howard, which was such a complete and satisfying work, I really didn't expect to get another story set in Brown's version of Gotham and starring his own idiosyncratic take on Robin and his dad. Now, after reading its sequel, I find myself anticipating a third book." -- School Library Journal/Good Comics for Kids
