    Default Anyone a fan of Clownhunter?

    Or is just too early to decide?

    At the moment - he’s one of the most exciting wild cards of Tynions runs.

    I think he could be cool, I do kinda feel like his role could've fit a dark turn for Duke or one of his Robins because he feels like he comes from the We are Robin era/vibe but just with more murder; i like him enough, regardless. I would love for him and Duke to link up (like I said, he seems like he would fit nicely in his Robin era) because don't want him to only be with Batman, solo, or nowhere at all. I would like to see him grow and mature, I don't want him to be wasted in obscurity or to end up half-hearted wallpaper.
    THE SIGNAL (Duke Thomas) is DC's secret shonen protagonist so I made him a fandom wiki

    also, check out "The Signal Tape" a Duke Thomas fan project.

    currently following:
    • DC: Red Hood: The Hill
    • Marvel: TBD
    • Manga (Shonen/Seinen): One Piece, My Hero, Dandadan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kaiju No. 8, Reincarnation of The Veteran Soldier, Oblivion Rouge, ORDEAL, The Breaker: Eternal Force

    I'm really excited to see where he goes these next few issues, I think we need to see some good development with his character in the next arc of Batman and the upcoming annual if Tynion hopes to make him a mainstay character in the extended batfam.

    Agree with this. He really does feel like he came from the We Are Robin era and generation of characters, albeit with a darker, more punishing and fatalistic bent. Probably because of how much Joker War parallels Endgame with a side of We Are Robin in the first place. And the opportunities him and Duke interacting would bring would be worth it on their own.

    I also agree that I don't want him to fade into limbo or wallpaper. I feel they got a good new thing going here with Clownhunter.

    The simple act of him going after Harley is a big plus in my book.

    Still early. First impression is interesting look, but redundant. They been spinning their wheels with Red Hood for so long now i guess they seem to have forgotten about him, and now here's Clownhunter with a similar motiff. Whatever though. I just hope they don't get too caught up in glorifying him that they forget he's a serial killer.

    Bao has managed to work his way to intriguing to me, too, with loads of prospects for such a new character in such a very short span of actual time.
