Waffletastic Stephanie Brown Appreciation (Spoiler/Robin/Batgirl/Spoiler again)

[Frontier]

I'm fine with young Robins (I'm not really a fan of Dick starting at 16), but I do think Jason should die in his late teens, like in Under the Red Hood.

Interesting. I wouldn't mind young Robins as much if DC didn't have an obsession with killing them off. If it had a lighter tone, it would be less gross, but there's something pretty evil about murdering 10-13 year olds for entertainment. Not that I approve of killing off any Robins no matter how old they are, but if they're closer to adulthood, there's more of a sense that it's tragedy, and not just grotesque cruelty.

That was something strange.. I prefer him begin with 9/10 years, like Damian.. More time to evolve..

Which is nice. Except that then Batman is pushing 50.

Pfff, everyone knows that Bruce discovred the fountain of youth a long time ago and is at his eternal late 20s, early 30s

Well, according to Superheavy, Bruce is now physically in his mid to late 20s, even if he's actually in his early to mid thirties. Haha. Snyder, giving us a literal fountain of youth.

I always thougth that would be a prefect excuse for DC to stop obssesing about keeping Bruce in his mid 30s, he literally was deaged in a sucessfull run, there you have it DC, stop making a fuss about it and accept that Bruce is entenring in the grandfather phase

Apparently, Stephanie Brown Vol 2 DOES include the Grant Morrison story. That would be pretty amazing!

WOW... I never expected this... I never read the end of these pages... I know that I will see comics that I readed previously..

Maybe they realized that part one stopped just one issue short of the volume that stayed available the longest and thought that they should put some more in there?

I saw this image in INSTAGRAM again, with these words of his creator:


After finally reading some "Stephanie Brown as Batgirl" stories, I can see why she has such an avid fanbase. She struck me as someone who wouldn't let nightly patrols get in the way of enjoying an ice cream break, so here we are. After a month of focusing on pen and paper, it was interesting to get back to digital work. I realized I cut myself much less slack when working on the computer, so things take much, much longer.


Like any fan, I like to see others praising my favorite characters

[millernumber1]

I do want to bring something up from the preview: as I'd hoped, we now know the new mayor of Gotham. And it's an ominous one for Steph fans: Michael Akins, former Commisioner. Most famous for being in charge during Gotham Central's run - during War Games. I still think Tynion is smarter than replaying War Games literally, having Steph start a gang war - but this is dark news.

Though I do really like Akins as a character, and I love that we've gotten the transfer of power from League of Shadows. I love the way Tynion builds Gotham.

Fun Fact: I f**king love Yuri on Ice! As such, this is awesome.

Finally watched this - that's some really excellent pulling from the comics, and really honoring ALL of the Robins. Amazing!
