Is the new Batgirl (next week's) related to this week's Robin? (I saw over on DC that it is a X-Over.)

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'm starting to suspect that couches are to comics what twin beds were to old sitcoms.

I read an interview with (I think) Geoff Johns, in which he said that, in the previous Teen Titans title, it was a BIG deal to have a panel that showed (unmarried) Dick and Kory waking up in bed together.

I think it must be.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Plei, here's an actually half-plausible explanation for you: Bruce went into the bedroom for the sheet to cover her with when he had to leave for the Batsignal. Call it a caring gesture.

I can't figure out how to make the "no, Batman is an urban legend! Honest!" line of secret-identity defense, seen in many recent titles, make sense with the Batsignal, even given Gotham Central's excellent attempt to work it out. Some things you clearly have to let go of.

It's related to the overall storyline of Robin, as in Steph as Robin, but is it a direct storyline link to that particular issue, no.

Some comics have a preview issue shipped early, and I flipped through the Batgirl preview.

It gives you some insight into Steph, and brings back up the tenative friendship between Steph and Batgirl, but that is it.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Plei, here's an actually half-plausible explanation for you

You know, that works for me. Also, I have decided that while he was at it, he scooped up her clothing and took it to the bedroom for her.

Hey, all you old people, I'm curious what the reaction was to Wally shacking up with a married woman with a few years on him back in the day.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

As long as he slept on the couch, I'm sure it was fine...

I'd have to flip back, but I'm pretty sure they had an actual bed. Though they may have worn PJs as a Couch Alternative.

Was this back in the early days of the revamped Flash title, when he had a rep for slutdom that put Brian Kinney to shame?

Back when Wally was a ho?

Yeah.

I recall rolling my eyes that the cuckolded husband just happened to become a new super-villain, but I don't remember anyone being particularly outraged about Wally's actions.
