Damian Wayne: Robin Appreciation 2019

[Rac7d*]

Which comic?

[Frontier]

Stuart's still the best Damian VA we've had. But as the years go by, they're gonna need to replace him sooner or later. I'm actually kinda surprised he's held on this long, even with them slightly aging him.

As for this kid...yeah he definitely sounds more like a ten year old than Stuart did when he first started out (though, he honestly wasn't THAT much older). But damn is it weird hearing Damian actually sound like a...LITTLE little kid.

That's the thing with Damian. He should sound really young, but he doesn't talk like that, so it's kind of hard to get someone who can really capture that middle ground.

I see this was already posted earler.

I like Allen for Damian. I'm used to it I suppose but this new guy also good and he's an Oscar nominee. Damian Wayne Robin is a difficult character to get right unlike the other Robins. I'm talking both Voice Acting and Live Action.

You need to balance opposing characteristics. A young voice with a mature stilted way of speaking.

Pompous middle aged Alfred Pennyworth but with a kid's voice is what I hear when I read Damian.
That's a tough act to cast.

REALLY? Maybe I will give it a chance.. Only that episode to see Damian.

I am TIRED to heard Harley name and don´t see STEPH in any comic as relevant character..

Harley is even in Birds of prey with Cass.

Funny you say that because I hear the same complaints about Damian.

characters that fans love to hate on for no good reason. Fans often claim that they are over exposed or 'shoved down our necks. I say they are popular and so DC has to meet demand.

I don't mind Harley. She's in a lot but that's because she's a Break Out Star. She's changed from her early days and at times she's put in books /teams she's no business being in but that expected of characters that fans like.

Also you mean Cass is in Harley's Birds of Prey Movie

In the comics Harley wouldn't last two minutes against Damian .

Did you forget she can take on batman now and slip past as kyrptonian and amazon

[Blue22]

Yeah, I'm not entirely sure where Harley got her skills from (especially if her Amazon training isn't canon anymore) but she's no pushover. Could she easily incapacitate Damian like that? Of course not. I still have a hard time believing she could beat any Batfam member in a fair fight aside from maybe Duke. But the girl's got skill, regardless.

Well, maybe the idiot ones in the Justice League, but the Outlaws ones...

[U.N. Owen]

I don't hate Jacob Tremblay's voice work for Damian, but I think he would have benefitted greatly from not having Stuart Allan Bertman coming before him. I think he was cast because they needed to play up the arrogant brat far out of his league rather than arrogant jerk.

[Fergus]

Harley shouldn't be able to beat any Robin but she does appear to have gotten a power up recently.

Harley beating the JL is BS from the same writer that gave us Catwoman beating 3 Flashes so not surprising.

[Restingvoice]

Yeah in New 52 Dick and Harley debut in the same year. Dick's 16 and Harley fresh out. They never said how long did it take for Joker to convert her but she went straight to Arkham after university.

About Robins, 90s Harley can't beat Batman, but she's still plenty agile. I feel like standard Harley, no powers would be an even match for a standard Robin.

I think she's honestly more slippery then strong combat-wise, at least if we're pitting her against an actual Superhero.

[Jackalope89]

Original Harley (BTAS) was a gymnast. So, flexible and agile, but that does not make a master fighter.
