I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
We don't know yet.
eta: escrima is Dick, but red is Tim. I also think he's too big to be Tim, but that's hard to tell.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Robin is confirmed to be Damian, and Bruce will be the only Batman: [link] (although there will be a Batman, Inc. comic).

Of course, I have no idea who Damian is.

I realise I don't want Damian to be Robin to Bruce's Batman. I like him with Dick. I didn't realise I had these feelings before.

Robin is supposed to be the light counterpoint to Bruce's dark. In Batman and Robin, Morrison deliberately subverted this by having Dick/Batman be light and Damien/Robin be dark. Bruce and Damien would just be dark-dark.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
My sense of wrong is not decreasing.

Two tons of fun, hoo boy.

Although Tim was not exactly "light." But then again, compared to Batman, all things being relative, he was light-er.

I know it. I really don't want to drop all my titles, but...I might just.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
The thing with Tim was, compared to Bruce, he seemed light. You only realised how fucking NOT LIGHT Tim was when he was in a title without Bruce.
It was AWESOME.
