Robin: Son of Batman - Team Robin paper cut-outs

First try… seriously, this looked better in my head.

Okay I only quickly skimmed through the issues, so please tell me if I missed anything, but what exactly was the point of TD:R again? Like nothing significant whatsoever have happened in it and aside from Tim now living in a boat in Gotham Marina (which I wouldn’t be surprised if it was forgotten about by the very next writer) I don’t think anything introduced in this comic is going to be brought up again?

I’m just saying this because Williamson revealed that Damian finally returning to Gotham in B&R 2023 was always planed to happen before his solo was canceled, so now I’m wondering why exactly did DC think it was super important to squeeze a short Robin solo for Tim during that 10 months gap between Robin 2021 and B&R 2023 where Damian didn’t have anything going on? It honestly came off as DC just wanting to capitalize on Tim’s popularity post-coming out (ironically it ended up being the lowest selling Bat-book and reaching No.198 on DC’s top 200 best selling books)

Now I could understand it if it was a “farewell” comic about Tim FINALLY leaving the Robin role behind for good and getting a brand new superhero identity, which as all of you know by now, literally didn’t happen (even though Fitzmartin teased that idea over and over and over……and over again). TD:R was just a regular boring Bat-related comic with nothing special about it, so why exactly did it need to happen? For me it just feels like DC is trying to play with the concept of having Tim and Damian “taking shifts” when it comes to being Robin, so whenever Damian doesn’t have any books out, then they need to immediately give Tim some Robin stories that will go on until the next time Damian is going to receive a new comic.

I find the reaction to this comic kind of fascinating because I agree with you that it was not really doing anything of note (except for maybe Tim having a boyfriend), but large portions of the online comic community reviewed each issue as if Fitzmarting was writing Tim as the anti-christ and wanted to ruin Tim forever or something…and it’s truly not THAT level of bad? Like, not at all? That’s not the kind of writing a character gets when DC is trying to destroy them.

Tim fights a villain who is obsessed with him and wants to be his Moriarty. He leaves him lots of clues that Tim has to analyze with his detective skills (and knowledge about fictional detectives I think?), he gets cute moments with Bernard (who is pretty boring, but so are a lot of comic love interests) and the first artist was a bad fit. Okay. I see why a lot of people expected something more exciting. But the book and especially Fitzmartin didn’t deserve that amount of hate either.

I mean when you’re used to having it so great, a minor inconvenience will feel like the end of the world to you.
