Then it's "muh Year One"
Then it's "muh Killing Joke do you like"
Then it's "muh death of Batman"
Now it's "muh new Robin"

If Damian isn't actually in this issue then Snyder can fuck right off.

He actually had Duke have another identity in the flash-forward dream from Endgame so I'm hoping OP is just fucking with us and not showing the next page

I'm not really concerned about Damians place in the DC yet, he's been all over the animated movies and extensively included in comics even when he was dead.

>>80985197
The only reason Duke was Robin in Futures End was because Damian was dead at the time.
Until I see the next page I'm assuming Duke is Lark ala

>>80985257
But what the fuck about TIM then.
I don't like his character or his design, but why does DC even keep him in a book. For the love of creed just say wayne enterprises needs a more active CEO and put him on it.

That way he's not "shelved" without an explanation.

>>80985254
Probably in the new birds of prey, they sure as fuck aint gonna be bringing back the BOP from BENES or earlier they'll catch flack for the cheescake.
>>
>>80985295 this.
>>
>>80985152
That has been very obvious since his first New 52 story in the main book. He's constantly trying to write the "next big thing" and failing miserably every single time.
>>
Duke just got DOMESTICATED

I hope so. It'll be for progressiveness's sake and not my fetish on black boys on white men.

>>80985045
It's not bad. The belt trim is a little odd. I like the cape connection at the chest. I'm glad they didn't bring back the yellow oval and I think it's interesting they went with a yellow trim around the bat instead. I don't think we've seen something like that before.
>>
>>80985335
In character growth sure. But he is stil front and center in the TT that is stil going on.

What are DC even going to do with duke? TIM 2.0 or something. Or shit like "me being black makes me a completely different robin".

>>80985364
To be honest, Tim was lost the moment they introduced Damian it became clear they had no idea what to do with him. Even right before, with thr shitstorm of bad things happenings and his father dying and then Kon -- it's been a shitshow for his character ever since.

Duke wasn't a bad character, I enjoyed We are Robin. The problem is they're over saturating and folding everything together, so everyone becomes too similar and cookie cutter/lacks depth because they all have a 'thing' that only they're allowed to shine at. They're all blurring together in character/personality.

It was bad befor the Nu52, then they compressed the timeline and added even MORE people

That was what i was referring to with "only being a different robin" cause he's black. I fucking loved "we are robin". The issue with Psychedelic art, the kid diying 'cause he thought he could diffuse the bomb etc. Shit was good, duke was the only sane one. But fuck me, he doesn't have any kind of difference from the other robins beside not being an ass like damian was at times.

>>
>>80985532
Yeah, We are Robin was a damn good teen book - it was refreshing to see some caped heroes be incompetent with consequences, and it was the most street a street level book had been in forever.

There were initially purposes and differences to the characters, but they've been eroded away into TMNT chacterizarion because it's easier. When Tim had the duality of his life away from Bruce and his life as Robin, that made him different and interesting. So they nuked all that, and he becomes nothing more than the brainy Robin.

so when Duke is shown to be kinda savvy and investigative, he ends up stepping on Tim's toes because it's the only distinguishing thing about them. Other than, yeah, duke is black and smart.
>>
storytime it pls

does Joker reappear?

Damian isn't white- and he is Arab the writer hate Arabs .

>>80985377
Eh, I suppose. I always saw it more as just a yellow-line bat, since the background was black as well. This has more distinction since the interior bat is black while the background is grey.
>>
>>80985680
Talia is also half-Chinese

Is it naive to not be worried about Damian? He's been all over all aspects of DC since he was created ten years ago, and seems to sell well.
>>
>>80985853
He´s far more likley to be Roy as like Wally and Jay people disliked his direction in New 52 (no Lian etc. ), plus no cape.

Nobody is arguing for Tim to return to be a Robin, but his personality and direction has been lost under all writers ever since he stopped being one. He needs a Tom King kind of writer who a) knows his personality and b) has a vision for him

No, they're friends now. Didn't you read Robin War?

the yellow oval is, was, and always has been shit.
>>
>>80986265
I AGREE BATMAN IS BORING WITHOUT HIS SONS.
>>
>>80985045
It reminds me of most of the DCYou redesigns in that it is over-designed, ugly, and unnecessary
>>
>>80985045
I like it. They got rid of most of Lee's complicated New 52 BS, and gave him a simple suit. The logo looks like a stylistic blend of the oval and black bat, and the suit having even that little bit more yellow makes the belt less stupid for being the color it is.
>>
>>80986303
So what. Is Damian gonna be Dark Robin or some shit?
>>
>>80986213
Did you miss the Black Lives Matter issue Snyder and Azzarello wrote together to interrupt Superheavy that had only a tenuous reference to Bloom to make it feel relevant?

>>80986224
Or they're both Robin
>>
>>80985472
I can agree.

>>80985532
I like Duke best in We Are Robin. I think that is his best bet/shot.

>>80985954
My favorite Damian involved stories were when Nightwing was Batman.

>>80986011
I can agree on this as well but at the same time I guess it makes some sense with a well seasoned hero known for not having powers inspires a city.

>>80986019
10/10
>>
>>80986344
Well Damian is the edgy one though.
>>
>>80985045
I like the boots/gloves and the bat symbol. Ears are perfect.

However, the belt bugs me. I immediately thought Zebra Batman when I first saw it.

Replace it with a standard dark gold and IMO the design is improved tenfold.

>>80986417
Don't worry, Bendis will kill-off Peter.
>>
>>80986320
Bruce is a parody of himself at this point. He's a perpetual deus ex machina who is an asshole to everyone around him, that people find interesting because he is labelled an unpowered human being even though DC could reveal he does have powers and no one would bat an eye or be surprised. He hasn't been interesting as a character for me for awhile now. I find his sons much more compelling from a storytelling perspective at this point.

>>80986339
Yes, but I mean an opportunity for the three of them to go on an mission, and for Middy and Damian to have some quality time beating the shit out of goons in a manner Dick might find excessive. The two of them disliking each other at first, then coming to respect one another.
>>
>>80986482
Only ones that look like him as a child though, if the next time we see Duke he's bleached his skin white and has blue eyes then Bruce might actually adopt him.

Can anyone Photoshop the belt to be entirely the same color as the highlight around the bat symbol?

Those belt stripes just look bad. That a basically design 101 mistake.

The perfect ongoing
>>
>>80986561
why not? he is the only current son of superman living. Kon is a clone.
>>
>>80986561
Because Jon is pre-New52 Supes biological son from Lois and Clark

>>80986188
Yes. A lot called this a mile away.
>>
Daddybats is just great, a wonderful father who took the time to be there for his son urgg no ,he is an asshole.
>>
Seeing as the Bat Family is getting bigger. Can we permanently kill off someone? Not Dick or Damian... But lets kill someone. It would be fun. Death builds character development apparently... Let's not EVER bring him back.
>>
>>80986561
Because the original supersons were Batman and Superman's biological kids. And Damian and Jon are Batman and Superman's biological kids. The only difference is Damian's mom is shit tier talia instead of catwoman

>>80986584
He's alive in canon? Seriously who the fuck is Jon, my Superman knowledge is pretty gd weak.

>>80986530
God, I've been waiting for it since the Dick/Middy team ups began - I'm curious how Midnighter would actually react to Damian in battle. He tends not to be super cool with weaponized children, and when he's able to forecast the kind of moves Damian can makes and the lengths he's willing to go to -- do you think it would upset him? God that team up battle would be fucking crazy though

>>80986577
God, I think I came a little just imagining how perfect it'd be. Won't happen though.

Kon recently left with lobdell's shitty villain mastermind who made him.

Well, then. It's pointless to kill Stephanie/Cassandra/Harper since they didn't show that much outside of Eternal.
Unless people who buy Batbooks buy Eternal as well so they're familiar with characters.

In everything Snyder written, he is.

Although we see how well that went last time

>>80985472
It was perfect before the New 52. Everyone had their own place and could be woven in/cast out organically as needed. Adding more superfluous characters to the pile while failing to have even the basest grasp on all of the previously established and well liked characters is a prime example of the clusterfuck of terribleness that is DC these days.

No they can't all of the robins got some form of direct training from a fucking high level ninja or assassin in their tenure. These fucking scrubs can't be robin so stop pushing it like they could go up against trained assassins.

Creating a new character doesn't mean you're doing anything other than trying to tell a good story. Sounds like you're mostly mad at hypothetical execution rather than any facts. What PR are you even talking about? DC doesn't announce changes like that unless you mean just the blogs on the official site with stuff like "THIS JUST HAPPENED IN X #Y" They only announce creative team changes.
>>
>>80987951
Ignoring the fact that Snyder basically cribbed all of his beats from Morrison's run before it had even cooled, he has a baseline understanding of the character but plays at having Morrison's depth which leads to horrible attempts at allegory and mythic storytelling. The concepts that he introduced will always be vastly overshadowed by Morrison's as well, regardless of editorial mandate.

No, creating a new spin off character means you are either trying to put your own stamp on a legendary character in the laziest way possible or that you have discovered a way to highlight an aspect of that characters' mythos by adding a new dynamic that lends itself to unique storytelling opportunities. Duke is 100% the former.

I despised Morrison's constant need to play up to some enormous cosmic mythology with Batman, it smacked of trying too hard to make Batman larger than necessary. What made Batman great was being a detective and crime fighter, not conquering space and time, and Morrison's writing style is bizarre and off-kilter. Snyder may have also had a problem with trying too hard to make each storyline a great epic, but he wrote Batman just as Batman is intended to be, larger than life, but not larger than the universe. Save that shit for Superman, or the Lantern Corps, or the New Gods. Batman isn't those guys, and Morrison was trying way too hard to make him that and shove in all the Bat mythology in an overreaching holistic way.

The "beats" that Snyder "cribbed" from Morrison were already cribbed by Morrison from better writers. Nothing new under the sun.

I think you need to adjust how you think about comic sales and look at the general market.

Once a book has settled (meaning it won't drop anymore month to month): A-List DC books do 30-40k+, stuff below that like Batgirl is more of a second tier not "barely above bad"

Of course books that launch in 25-30k are in danger because they will drop by a lot as the issues go on, but for a book that is far into a run 25-30k is fine.

It doesn't change the fact that the Court is a ripoff of the Black Glove. The Black Glove is also a small part of a larger story as opposed to the Owls which are the crowning achievement of a mediocre to bad run. Damien overshadows them on his own.

I am a twenty-something recent college graduate who has only been studying this topic intentionally for a few years, but I have been silently struggling for much longer in trying find my place in a world that explicitly ignores mixed race people and cuts us into parts and halves.

Good. Push Damian out with Duke.

Damian pushed out Tim and I'm still angry about it. They spent over two decades building Tim and then they pushed him out pointlessly for the flavor of the month. Let's see how Damian fans like it. Maybe, like with Damian, he'll eventually become a worthwhile character. It wasn't until Tomasi wrote Damian that he got good.

Regardless of your opinions on the matter Batman has evolved to mythic status over the course of his near century long existence. Morrison understood the character well enough to dismantle him completely and build him back up again, which is something Snyder could never even begin to do. Morrison's Batman was a better detective, Bruce Wayne, mentor, crime fighter, and fleshed out human being in any given issue of his run than Snyder's was collectively.

Morrison was trying to veer Batman in the other direction from where the character had been going. Writers had been circling "Bruce is actually crazy" for the better part of a decade and it was starting to actively erode the character. He wanted to turn the character in the other direction as hard as possible -- knowing that whichever writer came after him would veer him back, but free of the self-destructive path he'd been on.

Agree or disagree with it, there was a certain logic behind the choices he made. It's very easy to disagree.
>>
Alright, why the fuck do people care so much about the title of Robin?

Does that mean Damian won't be written well now or what? Is Grayson a bad book just because Dick is not in the Nightwing costume? Seriously, who the fuck cares about that shit as long as the character is well-written. It's not the costume that makes a character good, at least it shouldn't be only that.

This level of stupidity and attempt at insulting deconstruction is exactly what is expected from a Snyder worshipper. It's not like I said the Black Glove is the most original idea in the world, just that Snyder copied it in an uninspired way. It would have worked if it had been a DickBats story, but as it stands The Court of Owls are a pretty stupid and unoriginal addition to the Batman mythos.

Not me, and I'm sure not others either. I'm just tired of Snyder constantly shoving his OCs into prominent positions. First Harper, now Duke. I'm going to be optimistic and assume it's not the role of Robin and hopefully not Batman's main partner but it really peeved me how he got Duke out of all characters to go and tell Bruce that he was Batman. He didn't even give an indication that Duke knew before that. My problem with this is more butthurt in regards to Snyder and his underlings and less of Damian being replaced.
>>
>>80988986
Tim was awful, and his writing was even worse, the only reason he became close to becoming Bruce Wayne is because the writers handling him were using him to relive their high school fantasies.

Literally everyone who ran into him fell in love with him, it was stupid as fuck.

I liked that he was finally taking care of his own shit, over all the time he didn't even want the job and was unsure of himself, when he finally is able to make the name his own they take it away.

It's the growth of just bad shit happening all the damn time in that last bit that was pushing in toward becoming that untrusting shit that everyone hates. I absolutely loved it, and with the reboot it just feels hollow because he wasn't an unsure love-starved nerdass fanboy with a camera turned vigilante, He was a fucking gymnist with parents who loved him who fucked it up for everyone.

That's it. That's the core.

Put Barbara in the GCPD and supporting in Bruce, Dick (occasionally), and Cass's comics. Have her be a CSI. Be a homage to her possible being commish and her having an actual fucking job that isn't Oracle. Have her be a big sister to Cass, who's back to being Batgirl.

Tim retires the vigilante life to focus on real life, but gets dragged back into being "Oracle"-lite by Stephanie and Harper who with Cass are the new BoP.

Luke is the gear person for all the bats. Their "Q". He tests the stuff out and then gives it to them.

Jason? The black sheep and the one everyone doesn't talk too save Tim, who believes he can come back. He's also the villain who keeps trying to lure or test the Birds into breaking the golden Bat rules specifically targeting Harper who he see's as the easiest nut to crack.

I would read this if Tim had the role.
>>
>>80990186
Well yeah. Most of my knowledge about DC's sidekicks comes from out of context images.
>>
>>80990186
Out of context they are funny though, and you can't blame someone for not having read a NTT book from 30 years ago. Wally used to be pretty right wing anyway or at least anti commie.
>>
>>80990347
>or at least anti commie
It was the Cold War. Just about everyone was anti-commie
>>
>>80989806
Huh. Now that's an interesting dynamic. I like the idea of babysitter Hal
>>
>>80990442
Nobody topped Guy in anti-commie department, though.
And there are people who don't like him because of that.
>>
>>80990056
>Jason
>black sheep
Not anymore. Bruce and Alfred pretty much told him to come home, Jason and Tim are pretty close now, Dick consider him a brother and he has better relationship with Barbara after BE.

He is one of the core members of batfamily now, not Cass.
>>
With the return of Cassandra Cain, Bruce should focus on it.

NOT IN DUKE.

Even faileth I am hating this issue.
>>
>>80987876
Why?
>>
IS... A JOKE, NO??? PLEASE...

DAMIAN IS ROBIN.
>>
>>80990761
No he isn't
TIM DRAKE IS ROBIN!
>>
>>80990796
Did someone say Wafflegirl?
>dem titties Stephanie had in that Robin uniform
Dear God.
>>
>>80990847
Then she lost them as Batgirl
>(did Bruce make her stuff her bra?)
>>
>>80990609

Oh I know. I'm just fessing up to the fact that they've basically neutered Jason with all that you've described about him. It's either back to being the bad boy of the Family, or just kill him.

There's no point to him if he's the "good son". He has to be the example of a Robin who disagrees with Bruce's ideology that all lives matter. Some lives just don't.
>>
>>80990923

They went to her ass.
>>
>>80990923
Greatest ruse of all time.
>>80990934
>He has to be the example of a Robin who disagrees with Bruce's ideology that all lives matter. Some lives just don't.
You don't read B&R Eternal? Bruce said that's Jason's role now, to do THINGS THAT BATMAN CAN'T.
>>
>>80990984
Now talk about a shitstorm if Batman said all lives matter?
>>
>>80991026
Some lives don't matter, it seems.
Except Joker's, of course.
>>
>>80989618
But will it? I mean, won't Batman just end up being Eternal the series? Snyder isn't being dethroned so much as stepping back.
>>
>>80990984
They way that's phrased makes him sound like Bruce's sanctioned hitman.
>>
>>80990796
The past do not care to me.

The important thing is this .. Damian is a child, can not be replaced ..

For an older boy? Damian has training, Damian defeat him..

It's like Bruce substitute for Gordon .. The 2 guys are not at the same level
>>
>>80991108
Indeed. Except that we still didn't see Batman giving him list with future dead people.
Yet. It'd be hilarious that we get one issue after Rebirth with Batman going to RH's safehouse and asking him to whack some mobsters or whatever. Internet would burn.
>>
I'm not surprised this didn't get a sticky. It is about comics after all
>>
>>80991419
It's not that important.
If Rebirth don't get sticky, I'll call shenanigans.
>>
>>80991516
What counts as important then?
>>
>>80990984

We simply IGNORE that. Like all the hype that Harper is the "Perfect" Robin. These two have to be the hardest hit and the ones more tempting to do break that one "golden" rule.
>>
>>80991108
>>80991228
Batman wouldn't do that. He just acknowledged that Jason is his own man who his ways might not be all that wrong
