I just want Tim back as Robin. I dont hate Damian, just thought there was plenty to still do with Tim.

Re: New York Post spoils Batman Inc #8
This is one of the reasons I finally purged (most of) my desire to read monthlies. They really want nothing to change... the whole marriage thing and kids and teen sidekicks growing up means that the icons need to grow up and change and age, and there's no way that that's happening. I can understand the mindset, even though it made me mad when that Marvel editor basically said they count on cycling readership anyway. But as a kid I grew up with Levitz's Legion and Wolfman/Perez Teen Titans, watched them evolve and grow, saw Wally become his own man and a Flash in his own right, heck, even the Young Justice kids grew up, only to see that reset multiple times. I guess if you only care about the icons that's fine, but then the very structure of a monthly comic and a connected universe for people that aren't allowed to change and grow is kinda useless when you can just go read a finite series like All Star Superman or DKR that are largely unencumbered by the baggage.
Or maybe I'm just a cranky old man telling the kids to get off my lawn. Or both.

I honestly could never understand why this character made it into the "New 52" to begin with...I thought he would have been dropped. Guess I know why they kept him now...to kill him off.

If Dick Grayson or Barbara Gordon can't be Robin (yes, I went there), it needs to be Tim Drake. If they didn't care about continuity when starting the new 52, I would have retconned Barbara Gordon into being Robin before she turned into Batgirl.

The second the East Coast sold out, some West Coast stores started upping their prices before they opened. Some of the dealers at Frank & Sons (a local show out here) have already said they're pricing the book at $5 when they open at 3pm today.
