    Somehow I don't think Babs and Kate being the same height has ever been reflected well in their appearances together...though I should probably read that Batgirl annual with their team-up or check out the one team-up from the Simone run and see how the artists depict their height relative to each other.

    Black Canary usually seems a lot taller then her official heights would have you believe. I mean, shorter then or as tall as Steph, really ?

    It's also weird to think that Helena and Babs would be taller then Dinah.

    For what it's worth, the live-action Canaries are 5'9" (Smallville) and 5'7" (Arrow) respectively if we look at the actresses heights.
    The official Hights hardly really fit. Barbara is for example never shown to be taller than her Father, Dick or Dinah.

    Jason is hardly ever drawn to be taller and more muscular than Dick.

    And Cass is at least in the new 52 usually noticeably shorter than Steph and Harper (it wasn't like this pre flashpoint).

    It think 5'7'' for Selina is not to far of but Dinah is definatlly taller than 5'4'' or 5'5''.

    It used to be a running thing that Babs was quite tall for a girl her age, and taller than Dick (they call it out in Secret Origins #20) but I guess they scrapped it because her shortness is a plot point in Batgirl Year One where she is unable to join the FBI because of it. It's worth pointing out that Dick's being noticeably shorter than Bruce is referenced during his latest tenure as Batman.

    According to current stats, Joker is 6'5", which is absolutely insane and is never reflected in the comics or anything. There's a very early story in which Joker's height is listed as either 6'1" or 6'2", I think it's in the Golden Age Batman omnibus but I can't remember off the top of my head. At any rate, I think keeping him one inch shorter than Batman is reasonable.

    Duke is scrawny. How can he fight crime when a gust of wind will blow him away.

    And I that the weight for the girls were unbelievably low.

    It's the Dynamic Duo! Batman and Robin!... and Red Robin and Red Hood and Nightwing and Batwoman and Batgirl and Orphan and Spoiler and Bluebird and Lark and Gotham Girl and Talon and Batwing and Huntress and Azreal and Flamebird and Batcow?

    Since when could just anybody do what we trained to do? It makes it all dumb instead of special. Like it doesn't matter anymore.

    That they started making her closer to Dick's age, rather then the adult she was in her first appearance, in each subsequent continuity reboot probably helped.

    Like I said in the opening post, I have only the metric version of the book and not the original imperial one, it might be a translation mistake.

    Thanks, thats what I assumed the mixed up the numbers and write 186cm instead of 168cm. I change that in the list.

    Could you check the other stats from that book in my list? I had often to round somehow when I converted them to Imperial and I'm not sure that I did it always in the right direction.

    Wow, you'd think Batman would be a bigger guy than a mere 6'2". He always looks like a moose. He should be like 6'6" and 250 pounds.

    I just got the New Edition of the Ultimate Character Guide, it seems to be the UK Version which has this imperial and metric stats.

    But in seem cases they have screwed up the transformation again, for Huntress Height they give for example 5'11'' and 1,98m (which corresponds to roughly 6'6'')

    For the most part the characters have their usual stats. With a few exceptions:

    Duke is now 5'9'' and 180lbs, which makes him a the same height as Luke Fox and Only an inch shorter than Dick, and a little bit heavier than both of them.

    They changed Damians height to 5'4'' but strangely kept his weight at 84 lbs (which would make him super skinny), the height is also strange since that would make him 8 inches taller than Jon (who is according to the book only 4'6''), 2 inches taller than Emiko (5'2'') and only two inches shorter than Tim (5'6'').

    It was already stated above apparently screwed up the metric entry, and that he is only 5'6 in the original imperial version of the book.

    As far as I know, Duke and Tim should be about the same height.

    I like this size for Duke, not too huge but not small; he's reasonably built. Do you think you could post the page?
    THE SIGNAL (Duke Thomas) is DC's secret shonen protagonist so I made him a fandom wiki

    also, check out "The Signal Tape" a Duke Thomas fan project.

    currently following:
    • DC: Red Hood: The Hill
    • Marvel: TBD
    • Manga (Shonen/Seinen): One Piece, My Hero, Dandadan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kaiju No. 8, Reincarnation of The Veteran Soldier, Oblivion Rouge, ORDEAL, The Breaker: Eternal Force
