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

Like, "it's been xnum years since NML in current continuity"?

"Now" isn't a milestone event. And it hardly needs to be precise. But Bruce donning the cowl at 18 is very different from him donning it at 28. That's the sort of thing I like to have a sense of.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

When Emerald Dawn came out more than a few years ago, it postulated a graying Hal Jordan as having been a super hero for 15 years (probably got his start within months of Superman and Batman emerging into the public eye).

I'm plowing through Batgirl (just finished #23), and I'm loving the things it's saying about Batman. I can't wait to find out if he's right about her or not. But I really think we've been shown he's not.

Okay, so I'm in love with Batgirl, and may start buying. What I hadn't realised is that when Connor says Cassie is his girlfriend he wasn't talking about Wonder Girl. Too confusing.

ita, he wasn't? Because in TT, it's pretty clear that they have the hots for each other.

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

Ah. You've hit that part. While there was a short flirtation between Conner and Cass, Conner is now with Cassie, because he is a simple, simple clone, and this way he won't forget any names.

I give up. I wasn't sure what that kiss meant as she was leaving Smallville.

Back to my original understanding then, lickety split. But has anything happened in TT between WG & SB? I thought BG was it because at least there's been the hint of stuff.

Oh! About Bruce Wayne, Murderer -- I gather it was Cain all along, but how did that play out in the comics that aren't BG? How did they work out who did it, and what's the status of Bruce Wayne in the real world right now?

In TT, Kon and Cassie kiss on the roof of Titans Tower in the first 3 or 4 issues. Which is interrupted by Wonder Woman showing up and tossing Kon off the roof, precipitating a TT/JLA rumble that gets broken up by Nightwing. It's a beautiful thing.

ita: the Cassie and Conner stuff has roots in Young Justice. She's had a thing for him for ages, he's just been starting (this may be only in TT, I'd have to check, and Jilli has my TT at the moment) to like back that way recently.

Thank you. I have little to no memory for things that didn't happen ten years ago. Reading parallel comics serially doesn't much help with that little brain problem.
