    Default Damian Wayne/Robin Appreciation 2023.


    Let's hope it's a good one for the Son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul with a Grandad in Ra's al Ghul.

    I hope so too. Last year was a mixed bag for Damian. It was sad that Robin ended but we got some good - great content in various comics, WFA, guest spots in the Harley TV series and an enjoyable animated movie.

    Hoping for at the very least more of the same or even better in 2023.

    Considering that Gunn is a big fan of Morrison's run, I hope this means that Damian has a chance to finally appear in movies.

    That would be excellent. Robin is a tricky fit for the two recent Batmen seen in the live action movies.

    Any young sidekick is. It only makes sense if being Robin is safer, less destructive lifestyle for the kid in question.

    The kid has powers.

    Audiences today would cancel Batman for endangering an orphan in his care.
    Cass and Damian who are already child soldiers and killers hence crime fighting can be viewed as almost a positive.

    Duke is a meta. So those 3 might be less problematic. Though audiences might cancel Batman for being a Billionaire White male who endangers underage minorities.

    I'd like to see Damian as robin in live action but I'm not sure how likely the possibility is. Creatives aren't keen on Robin. Burton and Nolan both had a strong dislike for the character but who knows.

    Imagine if we ever get to see DickBats and RobinDamian in live action?

    I don't think people would think that deeply about Robin. Although it would probably depend on the style and tone of the movie.

    Happy new year!

    Even though I fear Damian's future looks a bit uncertain right now. Of course we can't be sure that DC won't announce even more new books for the first half of 2023, but so far there is no mention of Damian anywhere:

    After Tim Drake first yeah. I think Damian is just one Robin too far, but the New 52 did it with a young Superman. So possibly.

    There are too many Robins which is why we rarely see them all adapted.

    That why the Animated Universe cut out Tim and Jason and Why The BTAS/DCaU cut out Jason. Why the Beyond verse cut out Jason etc.

    Damian doesn't have to come after Tim. He doesn't require Tim or Jason to be introduced. All he needs is Talia and Dick the originator of the Robin mantle.

    I don't know whether this is good or not, but Batman vs Robin #1 is Top 5 in sales for September 2022 (according to ICv2):

    While being published in the second week helps books to climb to the top of the charts, a very good sign that the book did really is that with the exception of Dark Crisis no other DC book that was released on Sep. 14th, 2022 was in the top 50.
