how many would love to have Tim and Damian be the same age, preteen, and both br robins?? like Tim Red Robin with the TNBA red suit with black undies and cape but with a RR symbol and Damian with his Son of Batman movie uniform?? I would love to see them as good brothers who get up to fun hijinks and play off each other well. I think the dynamic could work well and give Damian and friend and ally closer than anyone else could be save “Pennyworth”. The Wayne Boys could be a force to be reckoned with in and out of uniform. It could add some fun to Damian’s personality too. Having a same aged brother around the house to banter with to joke with and play with to just hang out with. Any thoughts??

I would absolutely love to be Damian Wayne’s dad. I sense a good boy in him.

I think every child should have an ice cream parlor within walking distance from their home. That way you walk off any calories. A great outing for the whole family!

To me it seems they don’t care about the fans only shock value and variant covers all for profit but can’t respect the lore the way things are. They kill people off in stupid decisions and thing the fans are stupid for questioning their decision. I don’t want comics that are total fan service but you have to care about the fans and respect them and the lore. I don’t want comics that are solely about profit above all else.

They keep messing with Batman. He needs Alfred & he is supposed to be a brooding and emotionally distant person (and yet you can still have silent of stories made with that person yes non-BATDAD Bruce can still be someone you can write a ton of stories for and he can grow as a person to an extent but he is mission first and while he does CARE and can show he cares he is far from emotionally loving and affectionate. He is too scarred for that and that scarring from seeing his parents death at the hands of a criminal is what fuels him. I dont want him to loose that. I don’t want good dad Bruce who relates to his kids jokes and has fun with them and is the every dad people want to have for their own dad. he needs to be someone who has trouble expressing his feelings he need to not be the affectionate warm BATDAD. You want BATDAD go to WFA. Comics batman needs to be more focused more mission oriented and while he cares Alfred is the better dad and so is Dick.)

A hopeful upbeat guy misses the point of everything. Yes with Dick he was more fun and hopeful but also was younger and his misson had just begun. As time has gone on his mission weighs on him is has zapped any joy any possibility of completing his mission and retiring. He knows he is in this to the end. Yet the biggest development stories AREN‘T about BRUCE they are about DICK, and JASON, and TIM, and DAMIAN, and Barbara and everyone else. That they can become better and not become like him is the greatness. {I love Damian the abused he whole life boy raised as an assassin come to live with his father who dick was the first to so real love to. THAT relationship should be explored more Dick as a father to him. But I would LOVE to see real growth in Damian and not see him always regress back to demon brat when new authors come in. I want to see Dick help him become the hopeful boy he can be. The most wonderful Robin and maybe one day the best of all of them. I think I would prefer Dick as Batman and Damian become the new nightwing. But Damian can grow so much. Tim can grow too if someone would actually let him. I think Jason could grow too. (I prefer the helmeted Jason). And stop raping Dick no one deserves to be raped no matter who they are!!}

The juxtaposing of his brooding and emotionally distant character against the happier and more loving and emotionally available other members of the family, which is getting a bit too big I mean they can’t even fit them all in the same story or story are often and they dont have there own books took shine in, make the Batman comics compelling. He doesn’t have to get over his parents death or change into super dad he can be mediocre but well meaning and care and give purpose and direction to them but still be a broken man while they have healed.

I think back to BTAS, yes a cartoon but here me out, and they had censors that prevent some of what they wanted but it force them to get creative and in the end made for better stories. I argue even the comics codes, while they could have been less strict, did force writers to be more creative. Having guardrails does that it forces you to zero in on things and really get good stories. With no guardrails for decades they stories have suffered. With no limits to what can be done editors push for more and more and ever writer try to push to see haw far they can take things. Perhaps rules are a good thing.
