I've said it before and I'll say it again - do "Batman And Robin - The Dynamic Duo", with Bruce and Dick at the height of their powers, to get all the understandable "Dick and Bruce are significant figures in each others lives" out of everyone's systems, and then have fun defining the Nightwing title in contrast.

Great idea.

Yeah, preferably, a Batman and Robin series would be set in present day DC.
I stand corrected! Thanks for this. I've seen some fandom discussions that lead me to believe this was more a one sided crush, big sister sort of vibe. Maybe they were Dick/Kory shippers
Source for this? Not that I don't believe you, but Julia strikes me as too obscure to make it into such an adaptation. stranger things have happened though.
by Ivan Tao - Art Station.
Edit: Weird that this forum censor the name "Art Station" when both words are together.

While Teen Titans didn't have any great moments,imo, I think Dick using Miguel's constructs during fights is a cool idea that I hope stays around.
That's a shame... but not necessarily a bad thing as long as it doesn't quietly vanish like some other promising Black Label books.
It was a crush and mild infatuation on both sides. It wouldn't be until the 90's that DC would act like the two were always meant to be and Kory was just a stop gap for Dick and would selectively retcon their history to add more romantic elements to their history.
No source. But Julia is the one who is related to Alfred while Bette is related to Kathy. Thus Schumacher's Batgirl would be closer to Julia than Bette.Source for this?

Yeah. This crush and mild infatuation appeared in Batman family, but it doesn't develop anymore.
NTT would start shortly after and Starfire will become Dick's love interest.
It's possible they don't know Julia or Beth.
They need Barbara being related to Alfred to connect with the story they were trying to tell.
The age could just be the direction they want for the character.

If I'm not mistaken, the one-side crush of Dick as Robin is one of the Dixon retcons. You can see it in Batgirl Year One.
The one-sided crush concept is that Dick/Robin as a 14-15 teenager has a crush on Barbara/Batgirl (that was older). This concept seems to be creation of Dixon, since this never happened in the comics at that time.
PS: Dick was 19 in the Batman Family comic, which seems to be the first time we see Dick and Barbara "flirting".

While there was retcons, but its not like Dixon didn’t develop the romance with them as adults.
