    So the minors Batman abuses I'm guessing fall into the Some of them want to be abuuusssed category. Check.
    They where clearly asking for it am I right? That's alright then.

    Lols! Child Abuse is funny.

    If he was going for that then he wouldn't be going to the trouble of justifying Bruce hitting Tim.

    It hasn't really felt like any writers are all that interested in developing a family dynamic with the actual Batfamily in a long time. Most everyone is secluded in their own book and just makes generic group appearances when they're actually together.

    I mean, Tynion tried, but it still felt limited.

    The explanation feels like something Bruce came up with to rationalize punching Tim in the face after the fact.

    I'd still really like some kind of series starring the main members of the Batfamily. Even if it doesn't involve Bruce...actually...especially if it doesn't involve Bruce. Just some kind of miniseries where Dick leads Jason, Tim, Damian, Barabara (maybe Steph and Cass) on some big mission, and focus on these characters re-establishing something that at least slightly resembles a familial bond.

    So... basically a better version of B&RE?

    I mean, to us the readers, yeah...but in-universe I think it's supposed to be legitimate.

    Do a Batfamily team-up book.

    In the hands of a solid writer I would buy that in a heartbeat.

    I wonder how each member of the Batfamily voted.

    Read some reviews. spoilers:
    The Batfamily were mostly there to 'show' how tough Thomas is.
    end of spoilers

    Had a feeling that would be the case.

    I knew Thomas would beat them, he shapes up to be the big bad. He has to be defeated by Bruce and Selina. Even if it makes no sense. Thomas is old, not trained and already beaten up.
    When has the batfamily been more than cannon fodder in this run?

    Ya, for someone who started training well into his adulthood, is older, and is a drinker, he is pulling of some pretty impossible feats. He should not be THAT good.

    I'm sure King has another perfectly reasonable explanation somewhere up his sleeves. Maybe Thomas is in on the whole "communication through ass kicking" thing too xD
