Lets make a bet on whether or not he'll be Robin if you want to put your money where your mouth is though...winner chooses the others avatar for a month.

You game?

This is the end of GM's Batman run.

And Mags was really dead at the end of Morrison's run too. How long did that last? 2, 3 months before editorial retconned it?

You really think this DC regime won't do exactly the same thing if they think Damian's a viable character? Especially since Grant's giving up on superheroes for a while?

Again, oceanfront property...going cheap!

If certain people at DC (and Time-Warner) probably have their way, Dick would probably back in the green shorts.

Two years. That's how long death lasts at DC doesn't it? Truth be told that was a horrible end for Magneto the moment Grant didn't undo it, Marvel did two months later. Of course we got the whole Xorn mess. So what you're saying chappy is we'll be getting a whole new mess of Xorn from DC? :smt017

If that's true, then why hasn't it happened already ? :lol:

No, what I'm saying is there is NO WAY DC gets rid of Damian.

Because Morrison is still doing Batman, Inc.

DC might not get Damian, he may just end up an ex-Robin.

He's 10. They're not returning Dick, Tim, or Jason to the role...they're just not. Nobody wants to read Harper Row. What else are they gonna do with him?

He stays Robin. Book it.

I think they will. The blueprints are there. What Harper Row is just misdirection?

How can you say nobody wants to read about fan favorite Harper Row?
