The Bat Boys come out to play as Gotham finds itself under siege from the threat of the new villain Termius. While Batman goes all Iron Man to fight the armored dying madman obsessed with destroying Batman and Gotham before he draw his last breath Damian gets assistance from the former Robins as Nightwing, Red Robin, and even the Red Hood, show up to stop Terminus' hired mercenaries and odd mutated creatures.
Okay, Batman and Robin #12 isn't great, and there are a couple truly groan worthy moments, but it's certainly high on action (even if it never bothers to explain the reasons behind Terminus' obsession with destroying Batman and Gotham).
I like seeing the Robins together in this issue and if DC is looking for another Bat-title to replace one of the underperforming New 52 books may I suggest something along the lines of Robin Team-Up (featuring Robins current and past teaming up for short arcs - which would allow for the inclusion of Stephanie Brown, too). Worth a look.
