    My nephews told me that Drake is a cool name. Like the rapper. The first thing that comes to people's mind is Hotline Bling. Take that as you will.

    Away from Drake for a moment did anyone notice Tim specified his code name was Red Robin not just Robin in the latest issue? Was him being marketed as Robin again as out of universe, and people calling him Robin just shortening Red Robin? Either way I'm ignoring his nine issue stint as Robin again and just gonna assume its red robin still

    Yeah. It seems Tim was always Red Robin in Young Justice, which fits with his appearances in other comics (like Heroes in Crisis).

    Although Young Justice marketed Tim as Robin out of universe, his identity was vague in-universe (Tim didn't mention directly he was Robin).

    Yeah, it was Jinny Hex who called him Robin - he just said he was one of them, which would apply to Nightwing, Red Hood, and Spoiler as well.

    I don't think it would bother me so much if it wasn't also his last name.

    You don't necessarily need the double R to be Red Robin, it's already alliterative to be fair so simply the R works even if its the same as Robin

    The double R could also be for "Rockin' Robin"...

    How about 'Rockin' Red Robin Randomly Runs Riot.'

    Sticks with that R motif

    Is that Steph in that god awful purple and black mess? Actually, the costume isn't bad, but the scarf and headgear are terrible.

    Alternate universe Batwoman, but yes, Steph.

    You know, if Drake really is the new name, I wonder if that whole, 'It's one of the most dangerous birds' line, was just meant to be some kind of attempt at light-hearted YJ humor/ribbing, or if Bendis is actually going to show that Ducks on Earth-3 are some kind of vicious and powerful creatures.
