I hope King does something to develop him this issue. I feel as though the joke has worn off by now.
It's the Dynamic Duo! Batman and Robin!... and Red Robin and Red Hood and Nightwing and Batwoman and Batgirl and Orphan and Spoiler and Bluebird and Lark and Gotham Girl and Talon and Batwing and Huntress and Azreal and Flamebird and Batcow?
Since when could just anybody do what we trained to do? It makes it all dumb instead of special. Like it doesn't matter anymore.

Someone once suggested a re-imagined Kite-Man as an extreme sport enthusiast who turns to crime for the rush; he partners with Roxy Rocket.
I've always though Roxy would be a great 'catwoman' for Nightwing. I can definitely see this dynamic duo of daredevils bedeviling Grayson.

I was really hoping someone would start this thread. Toyed with the idea myself.

So, today's Batman issue gave us probably the most Kite Man ever seen! What do fellow Hell Yeah fans think?

Kite Man + Point Break = Awesome. I really would like to see the character find a nice balance of goofy and badass. Originally Posted by scary harpy

Part of me loves that we have a tragic reason behind "Hell Yeah," part of me hopes that we can still have the completely absurd goofiness maintained as part of his constant repetition of it.
I am surprised that Riddler chose to put Kite Man on Joker's side. I hope we get some kind of reasoning. But I will admit, I don't really have a handle on Zero Year Riddler."We're the same thing, you and I. We're both lies that eventually became the truth."

I remember when Len Wein brought backed Kite-Man from comic book limbo in BATMAN #315.

Rooftops (with Kite-Man): Hell Yeah
I am Bane: Slightly above Meh
Brave and the Mold (with Kite-Man): Hell Yeah
