The cowl was a far better look than the clone-hair over the domino mask.

Yup, and To made it even better by giving him expressive spidey eyes.

I love the Pre-Flashpoint Red Robin suit. I really want it back. To's design is the best, but the first one is good, too. Alex Ross did a good job with it in Kingdom Come.

I like the pre-flashpoint look as well. It looked like a weird ear-less version of Batmans cowl to me at first but it grew on me when I read his solo.

The cowl served Red Robin like the blue did for Nightwing: It was a sign that he was growing up and becoming his own man. Now they all look alike.

Wow that was such a powerful issue.

Wow that was such a powerful issue.

Yeah, it's one of my favourites. : )

After the death of his loved ones, Tim became more mature and darker, but at the end of the day, he didn't give up hope. He had a hard time, and crossed some lines, but the darkness never consumed him entirely. When the Red Robin series started, he was in a bad place mentally, but he never gave up on Bruce. He pushed some people away, but eventually he started to reconnect with his family and friends. I love how surprised Ra's was, when Tim called the others for help. Ra's just assumed that Tim is just like Bruce, and he wants to do everything alone, but Tim was never truly alone.

Darker, yes. But not more mature; Tim has always been unusually mature. If anything, the stunts he pulled in the wake of his father's death (such as hiring an actor to play a long-lost relative instead of just telling Bruce he wanted to be on his own) were surprisingly immature for him by previous standards.
