while i loathed almost everything about the new 52 tim drake, i thought the red robin name was fine. differentiates from damian, ties in a bit to kingdom come. everybody wins.
Tim should take on the Flamebird identity. No one has used it for years and it sounds cooler than Red Robin.
I disagree. Tim ONLY wanted to be Robin and he was the one person who was meant to be Robin. It was editorial that basically forced him out of the Robin suit because of Morrison's saga going on, I for one never accepted it even though the Red Robin solo was great. If some writer is able to develop a new identity for him and make it a natural development then I won't mind, but DC shouldn't be in any sort of rush to change his character.

I still say Flamebird is a better name for Damien, personally.
Keep in mind that you have about as much chance of changing my mind as I do of changing yours.
With everything going on in TT and upcoming Deathstroke, makes me wonder if Damian may be in store for a change.

Admittedly I'm not the biggest Tim Drake fan (i don't dislike him at all, I just don't follow him), but would it be such a hit to the character? Isn't being Robin all that he actually wants? I though (and could be wrong) that he always assumed that he would be Robin for a while, and then retire from superheroing.
I wish there was never a 5th robin. Tim is a better Robin than Damian
