    He is younger, he's officially 16, but its not this book that did it. Its been that way for some time, I think when his original origin was reinstated in 'Tec last year.

    I think its just the art, everyone looks like they got five year off their age. I suspect that when he appears in Detective comic again, he'll look like his old self.

    This adds credence to my theory that Bendis was given free reign to do whatever he wanted to get him to come to DC. Including re-write continuity.

    I think it’s more that DC has no clue what to do with Tim’s generation and hasn’t for a long time. Apparently Tim was rumored to be one of the casualties of HiC at one point. So when Bendis and Gleason come along with a plan for what to do with them, DC just lets them do what they want because hey, it’s not like anyone else has a plan for them right?

    Tec gave him his old origin back but he still had no history with Conner. Now he knows who Conner is apparently. I don’t really care since I just want them to ignore the New 52, but Tim knowing who Conner is, that’s a retcon since it changes what Tynion established in Tec.

    Be funny if this becomes a running joke like Cabbage Guy joke from Avatar TLA. Though I imagine Metropolis insurance premiums must be through the roof.

    The whole timeline is in flux. So i would not worry too much about. That moment when tim did not know who kon was.And bart was reinserted into the timeline via speed force breaking. And conner himself is reinserted into the timeline via an unknown event. Maybe it is related to bart breaking out of speed force or may be not

    I loved every page of this. Gleason killed it on art and it was the breath of fresh air I was hoping it would be. Great to see Time, Cassie and Bart in action again and Jinny was a ton of fun. Giving her an atomic era raygun was neat and seemed like a nod to all the weird stuff Jonah ran into at times.

    If anything I bet it's an heirloom.

    Can't wait for the next issue.

    Their vision for Dick's generation is to have them all dead or incompetent.
