    You know, if we ever got to explore Earth-1985, or whatever else they're calling the Silver/Bronze Age legacy earth, I'd love for Jason Todd to be Batman there.

    Granted, this'd be Pre-COIE Jason who's a lot more like Dick but still, I'd like there to be one reality where Jason takes over the mantle.

    Dick has already been Batman and is traditionally regarded as the successor to the role. Damian and Tim both become Batman in possible futures. Let Jason have a chance too!

    Oh, Bruce will be Batman on his 100th birthday.

    Dick though will be celebrating his 100th anniversary the very next year so all bets are off for 2040...

    Dick's not gonna be Batman again.

    I'm sure that at some point, DC will have somebody who wants to recycle that idea . . .

    Nah. Did we recycle Ben Reilly when we got Miles Morales?

    If someone gets really nostalgic for the Clone Saga, you never know...although Dick as Batman was nowhere near as controversial, so I don't think it's comparable.

    Ben Reilly has nowhere near the amount of history as Dick Grayson. Azrael is the closer Ben Reilly equivalent of the Bat franchise, if anything.

    What's Miles got to do with this analogy though?

    Ben Reilly is Dick Grayson and Jace Fox is Miles Morales.

    ...I don't see it. Azrael is more like Ben (well, Kaine) and Dick, race aside, makes for the better Miles equivalent in terms of importance. Jace honestly needs to actually last for a few years before we can compare him to any memorable character I think.

    Dick was never and could never be a Miles equivalent. His Batman never had a chance of being anything more than temporary.

    Was talking in terms of importance more than the "being Batman/Spider-Man" aspect, since I don't see anyone else lasting in that role.
