    Yeah, I'm talking about Post Crisis too. Between when he started to his father's death there are about 3-4 years? What made him decide to stick around that long?

    I think that his plan was the he would eventually leave the Robin role around college. As for why he stuck, plenty of reasons, partially because he enjoyed it and gave him a break for some of the hard stuff in real life, plus a part of him feel that he just wasn't done, that he still needed to do more before he retired, you know that Peter Parker sense of responsability.

    Much longer than that. Jack Drake didn't die until Identity Crisis - in 2004. That's 15 years after Tim became Robin!

    I think he meant in continuity, not in real world.

    Whelp. Looks like Tim's Christmas present this year is a big fat axe. Young Justice is no more.

    Fallout from the recent layoffs, I'm guessing. Things are about to get really bad for DC Comics.

    I think only the first arc really captured me. 7-present have really been me saying....ok let’s see where this goes. The way Bendis was making this book, it really needed up to 50 issues minimum to cover everything Bendis tried to set up

    No. The cancellations in November aren't directly related to the layoff. These cancellations would happened even if the layoff doesn't happen.

    We also have many cancellations in October.

    Reading the second trade of Bendis' Young Justice, I saw some sketches of the Drake suit and honestly some of them look better than what we ended up with.

    Admittedly some were a little too Nightwing and the red and black is Red Hood's thing but they felt more like a proper new costume for Tim.

    (And all the characters trying to make "Drake" happen within the comics just sounds silly).

    Would love to see those sketches.

    Might be worth buying the trade.

    In Nightwing #73, Jason calls Tim as Drake in the Robin suit. He speaks of Barbara as Batgirl (and he mentions they shouldn't use their real name).

    So, it is possible Tim will still be under Drake name in the Robin suit.
