What a shockerOriginally Posted by dropkickjake
They can complain about bad writing, and a writer using an angsty history as a plot device/"get out of jail free" card for terrible early characterization.

History as told by Lobdell is ya, terrible. Not that its gonna matter as thankfully Starfire has pretty much ignored RHatO.

I'm pretty sure almost everyone is ignoring RHatO or anything that is related to Lobdell. I'm waiting for the day he is getting fired or smth

Why would they need to follow a book that was cancelled where when it was re-launched Kori was moved off to her own title because her portrayal had very few fans and a good amount of complaints.

Honestly, there is too much naivety in her current portrayal for my tastes so I'm not really happy with that either anymore then I was overly happy with Lobdell's initial portrayal (or with Wolfman's back in the day). I was really hoping for something else entirely with her solo but it is what is. I'm in the minority and since this portrayal is closer the one fans are wanting to read about it does me no use to complain about it as my complaints will have no effect anyway. I'm still glad she has a solo though and that it has it's fans because then there's a chance that I might someday find a portrayal of the character I can live with.

In Outlaws it was hinted their in their last meeting Starfire was trying to kill him. So yeah, they aren't on good terms. Though they are probably just going to ignore that. Originally Posted by Vinsanity

That's exactly why I won't bother with the Starfire issue Grayson's making an appearance in. I made the mistake of getting the Batgirl one and frankly I've no desire to repeat the experience. Originally Posted by Badou

I'm sort of repeating myself, but in my opinion they should use Roy instead of Dick so Dick can completely move on from her. That way he only has one nagging redhead (Babs) to worry about. The Starfire and Dick romance makes zero sense to me in the New 52 as all of her important moments were with Roy now courtesy of Lobdell. He is who she closer with now not Dick. In the context of the New 52 Roy is who she loves and has been with longer. I can see where Starfire can use the relationship for attention, but the romance is completely useless to Dick's character. It worked some when the Titans mattered, but that franchise is basically dead now.

Hopefully there will be another preview that isn't a video one. Originally Posted by joybeans

WAR expands and Dick Grayson starts the Robin School. That is what the preview is, It's like TDKR ending except Dick instead of 55 y/o Bruce.

Well, I watched the videos on mute. That one poster is going to throw another tantrum about Tom King reusing the word "Robin" lol.
