It seems like Damian will be wearing Batman's Hellbat armor in Super Sons special.
Well that kind of sucks because I had a pitch that Damian steals the Hellbat armor to go to Earth-3 and rescue Jon, paralleling the time Bruce went to Apokolips to resurrect Damian. Now it just feels cheap for the sake of "Look at this cool thing!"
That's awesome. I can't wait for this movie and the special.
I get why some prefer Jon to be deaged and why Supersons shippers can be off putting but I'm getting annoyed at the constant pissing on anything to do with TeenJon and Damian.
Damian's sales as a solo act has always performed better than Supersons [OG and later series].
The version of Supersons that have been the most successful are the grownup versions from Dceased.
Kid Jon isn't as profitable [might change] as Teen Jon and isn't as versatile. Not to mention that Supersons dynamic that most want brought back is dependent on Damian's character remaining static.
The fact that so many fan keep suggesting that Damian be aged up to match Jon tells me that majority of the Superesons fanbase don't know or care about Damian Wayne or comics.
Supersons can work with Superman and Robin.
It absolutely can, things haven’t changed much except Jon shaves now.
Damian is still smarted and more experienced and the mutual respect between them is intact

When was the last DC book handing out smackdowns like this
I need this to be animated and by a proper studio
What does sales have to do with anything? Both can co-exist and not invalidate each other. The original Young Justice comic was published alongside the solo books of Superboy, Robin, and Impulse and no one said anything disparaging about the other. In fact, they probably enhanced each other because they were published in tandem.
That's a bit misleading. DCeased was successful on its own merits. The inclusion of the Jon and Damian was a highlight, sure, but certainly not a main selling point. It's like saying Black Canary is the most popular Green Lantern because DCeased sold more than the average GL book. Plus, DCeased was its own independent work that has no bearing on the main universe and anyone that thinks otherwise is an idiot.The version of Supersons that have been the most successful are the grownup versions from Dceased.
Wow, every word of that sentence is wrong. Kid Jon is infinitely more versatile than teen Jon ever would be. Jon as a kid had an infinite number of directions to go in and by aging him up, DC cemented him into one direction and that direction was to be a carbon copy of his father. Aged up Jon is the living embodiment of every single criticism, both valid and invalid, people had of Jon when he was first introduced.Kid Jon isn't as profitable [might change] as Teen Jon and isn't as versatile.
Every single story that has aged up Jon in it is actively diminished by his inclusion. Conversely, if Jon was a kid, those stories would actually be enhanced because Jon being a kid character is a rarity and offers a genuinely new angle and perspective that aged up Jon is physically incapable of bringing.
No? Where the hell are you getting that from? Damian may have seemed static, but it's only because Super Sons was the reward for Damian's past ten years of development and we simply got to bask in and enjoy this new period in Damian's life. That by no means should be construed as wanting Damian to stay the same and in fact means that people want to see more of this Damian and how he'll grow from Jon's positive influence. Dick worked wonders on Damian, now it was Jon's turn.Not to mention that Supersons dynamic that most want brought back is dependent on Damian's character remaining static.
The people who suggest Damian should be aged up to match Jon are, as you said, people who don't read comics, but are by no means representative of even a minority of fans. They are on the fringes of comic fandom they can barely be described as comic book fans. They like the concept of what they think the characters are, but not the actual characters.The fact that so many fan keep suggesting that Damian be aged up to match Jon tells me that majority of the Superesons fanbase don't know or care about Damian Wayne or comics.
If that were true, then the issue by Tomasi and Bogdanovic would be called "Super Sons." But it's not.Supersons can work with Superman and Robin.
Bro you do you. It's your hill.
me?
I enjoyed The supersons together as Robin and Superman in Action and Son of Kal El.
I enjoyed the Challenge of the Superson's which was published after Jon Kent was magically aged up
I'm looking forward to the [/Superson's[/b] as Robin and Superboy in the animated movie battle of the Supersons.
I'm looking forward to the Supersons in Superman and Robin [that should end the recent rumblings/HC about Damian being homophobic that surfaced since Tim came out]
I stand my what I said.
