Tim's little issue was very dry to me like I feel all these conversations with Dick & Bruce have been had before. Other than the identity thing & the little snippet about Bernard being from a family of supervillains (My theory to make him interesting) this was very boring I would have rather seen the date honestly. Also I' sick of Tim looking 15 & not the college age man he really is, his best look in media in years has to be the Arkham Series bald & all at least he looked like a man & not Peter Pan.

According to Bleedingcool in Superman: Son Of Kal-El #6 Superman meets up Robin, Tim Drake.

DC fails to understand that making Adult Jon Bi much like it does with Tim doesn't make him more compelling/interesting giving them both bland taste in men isn't helping that either.
But it will pump sales
Robin Superman and aquaman are not obscure, nor are they anti heroes who sometimes do horrible things their all all mainstream big leage heroes, its gonna garner interest and sales even if its terrible. They dont have to do anything, once the cover is presented it gonna do gangbuster
the only issue I see is that Tim may be getting his actual New idenity in 2022
Something that people often forget about the whole Batman Need a Robin thing, because that's the one that's often repeated, was that it wasn't Tim's final argument, because Bruce said immediately after that, he's not gonna endanger a child just for that.
Tim's final say is to do it for the people. What would the criminals do if they find out they can just kill a legend like Batman and Robin. Showing that Robin is alive is showing that they're undefeatable. An eternal symbol of hope for the people and justice against the criminals.
Of course, that's too long to be repeated, and you have to explain the concept... and that concept itself would've worked better if Robin is there only as a symbol and not too much of an active participant... but he did got the most careful training and updated suit, and the rest is where the comic book part comes in

Robins 3, made me wonder how Tim really feels
Glad this issue gave an indication Tim will finally move on from 'Robin'. Hopefully that includes 'Red Robin' as well, Robin needs to be stripped from his new identity altogether. That way there won't be any back and forth in the future. Hopefully Tim gets a clear direction/and clear mind soon because to be honest, he feels like a lost puppy on every front. He feels like the baby of the family, hell, even Damian and Duke feel like they far outrank him in experience with the way Tim has been walking around in self-doubt on every front.
This is far removed from the Tim we saw with Pre-52 Tim at the end of the Red Robin series. Now that was a young man who had command and knew exactly what he wanted to do. No one can convince me that Pre-52 Tim and the current are the same guy. Here's hoping this current Tim can get to that stage at some point. This is a good start.
Not really, I mean the issue with coming out will have pretty high sales, but after that they will likely drop down to where they were before (or even lower).
And I don't think that Tim and Jackson are at the moment popular enough to really bring in a substantial amount of readers.
