Heidi MacDonald, at The (Comics) Beat, reviews the new comic strip(?) Batman:
Wayne Family Adventures that debuted today on the vertical Webtoon platform.
As reported earlier, the first Webtoon/DC collaboration debuted this morning, and unsurprisingly, it’s Batman. Specifically Batman: Wayne Family Adventures, by CRC Payne, Maria Li, Lan Ma, Starbite, Jean Kim and Keilamel Sibal.
The strip has already created a lot of buzz on social media…and on the Webtoon app, where it has nearly 70,000 subscriptions after less than three hours live on the Webtoon app and site.

Your humble reporter already zipped through the three strips on the browser version, and it was the first Batman comic I finished reading in…several years. The story involves Duke “The Signal” Thomas arriving at Wayne Manor to begin living with the nest of lunatics known as the Batman family – Tim, Jason, Damian, Stephanie…Alfred…the whole dysfunctional gang is here and I know that because every time a characters was introduced there was a helpful ID caption explaining everything about them.
In short, as far as I can tell from my advanced age, it’s an excellent introduction to the world of Batman with lots of humor while still being true to the feeling of the world.
