Damian Wayne: Robin Appreciation 2018

[Armor of God]

I don't remember anything about it in Super Sons 9?

It had just one page revealing Damian surviving the nuke, maybe it was 10.

Okay, so if you haven't read Batman 666 and 700, and Batman Inc 5-6, as a Damian fan you are missing out. I highly recommend reading them. The gist of those universe endings is Damian didn't die as a ten year old. Because of that, he never goes on the redemption quest of Robin: SOB, never develops socially outside of Bruce, Dick, and Tim's shadows to become the weird tween/teen with a network of friends we all know and love. Instead he's increasingly isolated as a teenager, and depending on if it's 666 or 700's splinter universe (700 is the Damian SOB universe, and what we get several glimpses of in Superman/Batman where he saves and mentors Terry) he's responsible for Bruce's death, or feels responsible for Dick's death. Either way, Simon Hurt, who fulfills the DC version of the Book of Job devil, shows up on Damian's fourteenth birthday and offers to make Damian immortal in exchange for his soul.
...

Regardless, this is an alternative universe where Damian didn't die as a child. Warren McGiniss is a peer of Damian's over in Gotham Academy and we're seeing an increasing number signs that Damian has Wolverine levels of accelerated healing and regeneration along with slowed aging. He's already broken with Batman, his relationship with Dick was causally destroyed, and by now he's speaking to Ra's more than Bruce. Despite his fourteenth birthday being part of the plot of Doomsday and the choices he makes, it's unlikely he'll sell his soul for something he already has.

When was it established he never died in this universe? And that 666 and 700 are different universes? And I'm not following Doomsday Clock, how is Damian's birthday involved in all of that?

Also I really loved the DC Nuclear Winter special. I originally only got it for the Damian story, but there was so much good content there. The Kara story was so beautifully illustrated omg. And Superman One Million was amazing. The Damian story was beautifully written, I hope this creative team gets to do more with him.

Ah, SuperDami. Just remember, Alfred is not a toy.

The indignities you are forced to endure when you are a Gentleman's Gentleman. Bruce's reaction? Try not to break him if you can help it. What the shit kind of attitude is that? I guess Damian gets some wiggle room since they just go him back.

I think Batman Inc is where it is revealed that this Damian didn't Die. Well in 700 Terry becomes Batman after Damian [who rescued baby Terry]. Batman 666 didn't have Terry and there were irregularities between the 2 worlds.

Try to not break Alfred? Is he a toy? Or one Bane reference?

I doubt it's a Bane reference. I read it as Damian is treating Alfred like a toy

The Damian story from Nuclear Winter was nice. I was expecting doom and gloom but it was the opposite. This was touching. I hope these guys get their 666 mini series.
