    Essential -

    Bruce as Batman
    Dick as Robin

    That is pretty much it for me, the rest would fall into place.

    I've always wanted to see a "Batman and Robin Beyond"... where Bruce has been laid to rest, Terry is now an experienced adult Batman, and he's found himself a Robin to help protect Neo Gotham. Extra points for Max as the new Oracle.

    Dick Grayson as Batman, or just as Dick Grayson.

    Damian Wayne as Robin.

    Jason Aaron and Patrick Gleason co-writing. Patrick Gleason on artwork.

    Wild, out there adventures with a lot of heart. LIke Morrison's Batman and Robin, or Aaron's Wolverine and the X Men.

    I'll agree with this.

    More Gleason? I don't know, but for me, gotta get some new artists in there. I definitely got tired of Gleason myself.

    Grant Morrison: “Adults...struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform to the rules of everyday life. Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it's not real.”

    This is something I'd like to see. Maybe Robin could be an older Matt McGinnis? Having a duo of Bat-brothers in a futuristic setting might be an interesting change of pace.

    My dream "Batman and Robin" book would feature a retired Bruce Wayne who is still active in the Batcave, with an adult Damian Wayne as Batman, with Robin being an adult Maps Mizoguchi. Dick Grayson and Barbara Gordon are still active as Nightwing and Batgirl, respectively, with older versions of Stephanie Brown and Cassandra Cain taking on new vigilante identities. A major event/fight took place prior to the series which resulted in the deaths of many allies and villains. Among the casualties, Joker is officially dead in this futuristic setting, and just like in Batman Beyond, there are several Jokerz gangs in Gotham. Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy are a romantic couple/duo and have become more terrorist-like in their methods, regularly facing off against Batman and MapsRobin. Harley and Ivy, being among the few veteran rogues still alive in Gotham, sometimes make use of the Jokerz as henchmen, but more often fight against Jokerz members regularly in their own occasional back-up stories. Selina Kyle has reformed/retired as Catwoman and is an ally of Bruce Wayne in the Batcave. Harvey Dent has been cured of his Two-Face appearance, but his inner dark self still lives, and becomes a crime boss in Gotham with Black Mask as one of his rivals. Edward Nygma and Jonathan Crane are still active criminals in Gotham City, and regularly face off against Batman and Robin, with many of their riddles/fear attacks strongly effecting BatDamian and MapsRobin days prior to the major event that took place prior to the start of the series.

    Two options here:

    Batman and Robin, final year. With Bruce and Dick, we see Dick finally urging to move out on his own, having to split his time between college, the Titans (yeah, I went there), and Bruce. I'd like to see a mix of traditional Batman villains as well as new villains working their way into being Dick's rogues gallery. I'd demand Adams or Sienkiewicz on art, but am still unsure on writing.

    Batman and Robin, Earth 2: Bruce and Helena running into different versions of the Batvillians. The major underlying thread is Helena discovering just how deep into crime her mother might have been. James Robinson and Mike Allred.

    Robin can't be Batman's wife.

    But yeah, Dick and Damian for me. As he even said, they were the best.

    Bruce and Dick with revamped/updated Golden/Silver age stories that starts with the undying oath to justice and ends with Dick original decision to become Nightwing by honoring those who have impacted his life.

    I was actually more interested in Bruce Wayne as Batman, with Maps as Robin. I just wasn't sure if Bruce would be too old for the role by the time Maps got to be the same age as Barbara Gordon and Dick Grayson in the current continuity.

    100%.

    Deniz you are a genuis for suggesting Aaron, as I think he's got the sensibilities to take on a weird, fun and high stakes story like a rebooted B&R, but I would definitely take Stuart Immonen over from Marvel for this.

    Dick and Damian...for all the reasons mentioned above...plus, there weren't enough of those stories written.

    Bruce as Batman
    Jason as Robin

    and as Villians i would like to see some classic Villains from Jasons time as Robin (Killer Croc, Dr. Fang, Black Mask, Film Freak and maybe Two-Face)

    written by Chuck Dixon and Scott Beatty

    And I have read in an interview that they had actually planed to write it after Nightwing Year One.
