That's it! Thank you! I could only think of "Fortunate Son" and I knew that was the one where Bruce sleeps with Sid Vicious so my brain was rebelling. :)

Hey, I've got a question for you: did you see "Under the Red Hood" yet? Worth a rental? I haven't seen much chatter about it, but then I don't travel much in DC fandom circles these days.

I saw it at SDCC. It was pretty good. And they simplified some of the background material to not make it impenetrable (or ridiculously stupid) to non comics readers.

Ah, okay! That's definitely good to know. It's been years since I've read Hush and I've forgotten most of the details, so it's probably for the best that the background material was simplified. Thanks for weighing in!

NP.

Most important for simplifying - to me - is that they got rid of the reason why Todd came back in comic-verse (Superboy Prime punched a wall and people came back!) to something that makes more sense. You still have to use comic logic, but it's nowhere near as bad.

Plus it's got NPH as the voice of Nightwing. It's hard to go wrong with that.
