Damian Wayne: Robin Appreciation 2019

[Arsenal]

Ooooof. Right in the feels.

I heard the last news about Superman son + the people complains about his age and..

We were lucky that Damian was not in his place... I think that I can continue with the 13 years damian during the next 5-10 years without problem.. One crazy growing is not one good idea..

Honestly, I'd have been more okay with this happening to Damian than Jon. It would still suck. But we've had Damian as a child for over a decade. We've gotten to see him grow as a character and see Bruce no longer in just the role of the mentor, but as the parent for a pretty good chunk of time. Which is why making Damian a teenager now (even if he hasn't physically changed) feels more...earned. At this point, if he had suffered from the Bendis effect, I still wouldn't like it, but I wouldn't be begging for its reversal. It felt like Jon was JUST coming into his own when they suddenly dropped this big, dumb bombshell on him. Like he was just starting to establish himself as a character before they went and gave him this drastic and unneeded change.

Ageing Damian is more detrimental. DC is trying all it can to keep Bruce young. Ageing Damian = kiss of death. There's a reason why comics prefer adopted kids. Bio kids age heroes.

Superman on the other hand isn't human so doesn't age like a human. He can afford to have a 17yr old bio kid Bruce can't.

True. The only way to age Damian without retiring Bruce as Batman is to age him either in out of present time continuity (like in Beyond and other titles) or through supernatural/magic or a science accident/experment You know something they can reverse if it went bad.

Yep. That's why I liked the ambiguity surrounding whether Damian was artificially aged because that gives writers and DC some wiggle room with Bruce's age.

Damian is thoroughly disgusted by "Ian".

[Arsenal]

Ian’s the real demon child of the Batfamily.

[TheCape]

I don't know what this Ian is, but he sounds disappointing.

Ian is the worst

Yep. I like Grayson's wish best.

They both like punching things. I hope Once upon a Crime has lots of issues or pages. Nguyen's writing of the batfamily is one of the best and just what we need right now.
