You know, I didn't hate this - but it's a bad sign that it didn't think readers would understand that Talon Of The Court Of Owls saying "Who?" over and over was a bit like an owl saying "hoo!"...
Oh, I'm 100% with you. Dick was Robin in "The Past". When did Jason become the second Robin? Also The Past.
But it doesn't seem to be how DC and a chunk of fandom want the DCU to be. I've been...
I've said in another thread that a Bruce and Dick "Batman And Robin" title would do a lot of good - apart from there being really very few stories with that dynamic over the last few decades, both...
I've said it before and I'll say it again - do "Batman And Robin - The Dynamic Duo", with Bruce and Dick at the height of their powers, to get all the understandable "Dick and Bruce are significant...
It also raises the question of what the other half want. I'm not a fan of the ship, but it's one of those irritating divides where DC have been in a holding pattern - wanting readers to be able to...
These are the exact same complaints that people raised about Helena in Grayson.
Yeah, it's very sad - you get the sense from a couple of Seeley comments in the last couple of years on Twitter that he regards his Nightwing run as "compromised", and that he was a bit stung by some...
Yeah, what's special about the Dick and Bruce relationship is that it's Bruce stepping up to be a father - but it's also a sibling/best friend relationship too. It being lots of weird, unique things...
Yes, I was hoping Lemire's Black Label run would lead to a surge of interest and a big, definitive omnibus. It's excellent stuff.
(For people interested, "The Question" appears prominently in this...
Nah, it did. "Son Of Batman"/"Resurrection Of Ra's Al Ghul"/"Battle For The Cowl" Damian is extrovert-bratty - shouting at people, throwing things at the wall, picking up chicks in the Batmobile -...
You, sir, have *ruined* a perfectly lovely panel. Forever!
His run was cut short, wasn't it? There's enough in the issues as published to suggest that if it had gone on longer, he was...
Didn't hate Future State: Titans - didn't hate it at all. Everyone had a decent voice, it's big and bold, nobody got screwed over...
Taylor's "Nightwing" is where my money's on for The Good Stuff,...
I'd say it's as close to the full experience as makes no difference! You don't get "Final Crisis", but you get some issues that spring you up to speed with it - the omnibuses also include the bit of...
More Question, please! Or a follow-up to his New 52 (or was it DC You by then?) Green Arrow. Or crossover between the two.
Ha! I'm not going to lie to you, fellas, I've been drinking heavily - I entirely misread that bit of the interview! Thanks for the polite and non-judgey correction - now to drink a lot of water....
I'd have thought that "it's not about Bludhaven" would have piqued your interest! I'd glad he's not trying to pitch the city as an integral part of Dick's psyche or anything.
Also, by way of...
Ha! I adore him utterly disowning the Death Metal "marriage".
It's not major, but it's nice to have it there - a lot of what Dick tells Barbara/the audience about Ghost Maker and his current situation is what he learned by looking him up in Spyral's files when...
Love Jaime Reyes, that Giffen/Rogers run is one of my favourite in comics.... but I can't find it in my heart to really blame DC here. They tried, and he never really broke through.
I think the...
Also, I'm catching up after having been out of the loop for a bit - still not feeling Tynion's "Batman" run, but #104 delivering it's Ghost Maker exposition through Dick via Robin flashbacks...
I'm really curious about Teen Titans Academy... The solicit confirms what we knew (with bonus Shazam) - NTT training new characters, one of whom will become Red X.
Have we talked about how to...
Ah, thanks - yeah, liked that a lot. One of the ones where I went back to check who'd written it when I'd finished, just to make a note.
Snyder's said on Twitter today, btw, that he still has "a...
Oh, 100%. There but for the grace of God...
Was that Batman Annual the Alfred story? I do remember really liking that.
Although when Taylor did Spider-Man, it was a story about an ancient orange-skinned civilization that existed under New York and was ruled by a tyrant. I'm not sure his instincts necessarily go to...
