Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, I picked up Batman and Son, and the love still runs strong. I also grabbed the first six Batman Incorporated, because I just felt like getting my hands wet with a series, and I have no sense. There's a good reason I've stopped collecting comics so many times.
Talking of Colin, the first thing I saw when I walked into the store was a Eureka comic book, and my mind blew and remained blown for a few minutes. Very surreal.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Has everyone read Daytripper ? Because it is beautiful and gorgeous.

I have! And yes.
I don't know how to talk about it but there was a lot of hype and I was trying not to build it up in my head before I read it and it turns out that it's great and lovely and moving. And I want to reread it except I have this huge pile of books & comics to read for the first time before I can think about rereading anything because I'm terrible.

Yeah, I was hoping not to be disappointed, and it was just so lovely and understated and even though I felt like I didn't really get to KNOW these characters in the span of ten issues, they still felt real in a way.
I also read Nick Spencer's Jimmy Olsen book, which I loved! So much fun, and very clever.

I am very sad I don't own this comic.

Can someone explain Jason Todd's hair to me?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Just speculating; could it be a Lazarus Pit thing?

I look more rad than Lutheranism
ita, I don't know where I read this, but I feel like it was retconned that he always had red hair but dyed it dark brown when he was Robin. (Possibly he dyed it because Batman made him?)
I swear I read that in one of the comics, because I can't imagine I would just dream that up in my head.
