So, that's Barbara in the Robin getup, right? Just not used to seeing her in that color scheme.

Oh I am sure he would be annoyed by that, but when isn't he a little annoyed? I do not think that he will be happy to hear about Dick either. They also did it to honor him since they were going to save the little bastard.

bobkatt013 posted:Yeah. Since they were going to save Robin they were all dressed in Robin costumes. See, my take on that would have been "when rescuing a damned soul, balance must be kept, the scales must equal, blah blah blah, Take a Robin - Leave a Robin." and then It seems like the most DC thing they could do. Then again, I think this comes as a surprise to no one, when you consider that the kid's grandfather is kind of known for coming back from the dead.

No Grant Morrisons run still happened and Damien was a major part of that. The relationship between Bruce and Damian was the focus in Batman and Robin since the beginning.

I thought the whole Damien Everything was retconned out of continuity, apart from the stuff that was not. You are not permitted to know what is and is not canon until it is necessary. Hypertime is real.

I'm interested in reading the whole rescuing Damien arc. Is it just BaR, or the other Bat books, too?

Yup. Robin Rises Omega, B&R 33-37, Robin Rises Alpha. It has a catch up on Damian's life and death in the first issue, but you might want to get up to speed on B&R anyway, cause it plonks you right in the middle of Batman, Frankenstein, Ra's and Glorious Godfrey fighting over some sarcophagi.

Gavok posted:The Mega Man comic tends to play up how hard it is sometimes to be a sentient robot with feelings and a personality who is locked in their programming and has no free will whatsoever. Mega Man #43 goes into that a little. Jesus. Add "Needle Man" to the list of characters I never thought I'd feel an emotion for, but, drat.

Saga chat: It looks like that scene was probably a bit of a cop-out. I'm actually a kinda disappointed in that, though it would have been super sad.

EDIT: Jesus Christ, what is it with BSS and me being unable to read this week? Still, that Humble Bundle gets you up to #18, if you stopped before there, I guess?
