You can imagine what happened next…
Thanks everyone for your excitement about the new character! Just to clarify, this isn't an official new Robin–my story w/ @Ssnyder1835 …

…is set in an imaginary future. Sorry for the confusion, I should have been more clear. Please RT @DCComics

Something I should clarify regarding the info about the African-American Robin being introduced in in Detective Comics #27 by (1/…?)

@Ssnyder1835 and @Sean_G_Murphy. The story is a vision of a distant future, sort of my Batman Year 100, but even farther off.

@Ssnyder1835 It's 12 pages, but it means a tremendous amount to me. Grant Morrison has ben extremely kind to me since I came on the book

and one time, he told me that as you work on Batman, you develop your own continuity, not just your own Bruce, but your own future for him

& this story is my first stab at that – imagining where the Bruce Greg and I have made up for ourselves will end, & looking beyond that end

Now the structure of the story is such that you see a LOT of time pass, and w/o giving too much away, the Robin in question only appears in

a brief moment. And whether or not he'll ever make it into some future continuity, I have no idea. That said, b/c this story is my attempt

to see our Batman's future, he's very real to me, and the team – as are ALL the characters glimpsed in this story (and there are a lot).
— Scott Snyder (@Ssnyder1835) November 16, 2013
He's got a name, a story, and he's there waiting in the future. Anyway, I wanted to clarify as I didn't want anyone to be misled about the

nature of the character in current continuity. I know Sean explained, but I wanted to just clarify too. None of the art or info he shared

earlier was meant as any sort of announcement. We're just both really excited about the story and the future it suggests. Thanks

@floresstl not in the least.If Im apologizing for anything it's that it might've been implied his role would be larger than it is. But (1/2)
— Scott Snyder (@Ssnyder1835) November 16, 2013
the era he's a part of is one I'd love to write more/many stories for. (2/2)
— Scott Snyder (@Ssnyder1835) November 16, 2013
That said – big things coming in 2014 for the Bat-verse. Look for things to be moved forward on many fronts.
— Scott Snyder (@Ssnyder1835) November 16, 2013
@StatueGeek to be clear-NO ONE seemed upset about a black Robin, dude. Opposite. I don't want to get people's hopes up about his role is all
