    His timeline looks pretty wrong for me. He has Bruce as batman for 5 years before he takes Dick in (typically it is only 1 or 2 years) and Dick as robin for only 4 years (thats typically 6).

    And he changes the starting ages around, Jason was 12 in his debut (not 13) and Tim was 13 not 11.

    They're making their own timeline. The links below is where he explains the canon timeline such as the Tim Drake canon one and his alteration

    I’m with Frank Miller in that it’s weird if Batman is older than me (26 when Frank wrote DKR) and I like the idea of DC making a hard commitment to evolve the mythos in core books...so establish him as firmly 50+ and let the universe tell stories of old man Bruce mentoring a wild and sprawling family. Dick the guy who is just nailing mid-age and Barb a timeless icon in only her 40s. Jason, Tim and Steph at the peak of their first careers before life throws curve balls heading into 30s. Damien the grizzled teen whose feigned maturity is more endearing than than lived-in. Every other upstart and trial hero i.e Luke, Duke, Bluebird or whoever is both living in their shadow and also given room to shine.

    Then he spent a year training with the League of Assassins and All-Caste during which time Tim became Robin.
    Tim was NEVER Robin in New 52. He was Red Robin from the start.

    For Rebirth, young

    Bruce I've at around 37,

    Dick 23,

    Barbara 23,

    Jason 20,

    Tim 19,

    Stephanie 19,

    Cassandra 18,

    Kate around 35 (with how they're presenting her as Bruce's age)

    Damian 13.

    So, Dick was Robin for 4 years (13-17), Jason was Robin for 1 (14-15), Tim was Robin for 2 (15-17), Damian for 2 (11-13)

    This is as crushed and as squished as I can get while still having a sizable gap between Dick and Bruce, here Jason and Dick were Robin at the same time, which isn't ideal but neither is having a youthful Batman.

    Kate should be older than Babs. It's weird having Batwoman be younger than Batgirl

    So I'm going to work on the basic that Bruce adopted Dick Grayson at age 12 (I know lol), and try to reverse engineer it from there. Babs was always older than Dick. Over the years they reduced the age gag until I believe they were the same age during New 52.

    Bruce: 38
    Alfred: 63
    Dick: 25
    Babs: 28
    Jason: 19-20
    Tim: 17
    Cassie: 18
    Stephanie: 18
    Damian: 12
    Duke: 16
    Kate: 34
    Selina: 32
    Jim: 54

    I know Tim was established as being in College in Young Justice, but that was Bendis writing that. And with Tim presumably returning back to being Robin again I have to imagine that they are going to revert to writing him like he's a teenager again.

    Jason is another character who kind of retroactively get aged up overtime but my gut always tells me that his relatively short tenure in-universe as Robin combined with Tim taking up the mantle not long after his death makes me believe those two are closer in age rather than Jason to Dick.
