Pop Culture Affidavit Episode 157: Batman: From Death to Dying

In A Death in the Family, Jason Todd died. In A Lonely Place of Dying, we got our first look at Tim Drake. But what happened between?

It’s the end of the Jim Starlin run in Batman #430 and two great fill-in issues written by Christopher Priest in #432 and #433.
