In the light of San Diego Comic Con announcements by Scott Lobdell that Tim Drake was never Batman's Robin, it was pointed out (by people like us) that in comics actually written by Scott Lobdell, he still appeared to have been Robin At least that's how it was in Teen Titans #1. Well, according to the[...]

Last night we were directed towards a tweet of Scott Snyder in a Superman T-Shirt. Turns out it was one of a number he was trying on before his trip to

No one run around shouting "Murderer" or anything to Robin cosplayers, okay? In today's Batman #0, we see a young (er) Jason Todd taking part in a grocery store robbery that goes wrong But how wrong? That wrong Now of course our Jason Todd won't stand for that kind of action against an ordinary shopper. So everything[...]

But Batman & Robin #0 and Batgirl #0 are set after that point… First in Batgirl, the Batsuit is mocked up by the local cops, leaving Barbara Gordon to slobber at the window over it Yes, folks, it's an origin of Barbara Gordon's interest in all things Batman And nothing at all about how she got[...]

Spoiler, Robin, Batgirl… this character had played a number of roles in Batbooks over the years but fans believed she had repeatedly received short shrift from DC Comics And recently in the DC New 52, she vanished completely and was replaced as Batgirl by Barbara Gordon. Then, recently, it was announced that Stephanie Brown would be[...]

Robin, Jason Todd, died, and Batgirl, Barbara Gordon, was crippled. But then these are comics Jason Todd comes back to life and now as Red Hood leads The Outlaws. And Barbara became Oracle, and then Batgirl again, her revival ascribed to a procedure in South Africa. And DC's Zero Month looks likely to revisit all those experiences[...]
