Aside from the colorful artwork, there isn't much that makes this book stand out from other superhero stories. It's all too familiar even to someone who is relatively new to the DC Universe: Mad Hatter is kidnapping people, Mr. Freeze (without a tragic backstory) dials up the evil by holding blood hostage, and Two Face is acting evil again. None of these stories are bad - just none are memorable and all are too predictable.
Aside from the slight diversion of what I was expecting, it treads all too familiar ground without changing up the formula too much. It doesn't give much depth to Dick Grayson aside from a slight glimpse into his school life and establishing a dynamic with Alfred - both of which are not important to his character and can be seen in other entries.
This can easily be skipped without missing much of anything relating to Batman lore.
