I started out decently but Robin War kind of killed it for me...it was just that bad.

If these guys had been the regular Talons I would agree with you. However the "talons" the WAR kids were fighting were just mindless drones and not the more typical "Talons" the Court uses. The normal Talons are capable of rational thought while these guys appeared to lack that skill entirely. Without that skill theses "talons" were just flailing about in a disorganized manner so it would have been easier for the WAR kids to take them out.

What I meant was the logic of: Kids call themselves Robin = Robin is Batmans partner = Batman can't have so many partners = this book makes no sense. That's what I don't get.
This book is not meant to be Robin: the Sidekicks of Batman. I should have been clearer, they are not part of the core BatFam, while still being part of the Batman and Robin mythos. The main characters are more likely to be better integrated into the inner cycle of Batman, but the group as a whole is seperate from the Bat. As it should be.
It could have been decent but when the original Robins and a Joker gang start showing up that is in my opinion the sign of a flop that is desperate to remain relevant. No diversity argument is going to convince me otherwise.
I like the concept but the execution have not been the best, but there have been some good moments.
I don't see the fact that the original Robins or a gang of Jokers as a sign of desperation . I would have been weird if they didn't have a story where the original Robins didn't question the fact that their was a gang of kids using their names, the fact that the story wasn't that good is the problem. As for a gang of Jokers, I see that as a natural evolution of this book. If heroes inspires a gang of kids it is no leap of logic that villains would inspire a gang also.

I liked the book at first but now I'm getting tired of it. Seems a bit directionless and lacking in well-defined characters. Often feels like shorthand.
Well the jokers gang is now a thing since daniels run on detective comics
Weren't the Jokerz around since the Batman Beyond show?
the fact that they made the robins a gang bugs me because gangs are associated with a lot of bad things
drive by shootings violence things I don't want the name robin associated with
oh and gang war thanks joker gang
