GOD HAST RETURNED, AND SHE’S ABOUT TO FIND OUT THE TRUTH

STILL, SHE’S GONNA NEED TO HAVE A SERIOUS TALK ABOUT THAT WHOLE ALMSOT-KISSING BUSINESS THAT SHE WASN’T THERE TO WITNESS.

TRY AS YOU MIGHT TO LIE TO YOURSELF TWILIGHT, BUT YE SHAN’T LIE TO THE ONE GOD HERSELF. SHE KNOWS ALL, AND SHE KNOWS OF THE RIFT BETWEEN YOU TWO, AND ALSO HOW NOW IT HAS BEEN MENDED

NOTHING EVADES HER WATCHFUL GAZE, THE ANYA SEES IT ALL

ALL IS RIGHT ON EARTH, AND GOD SMILES UPON THOSE TWO IDIOTS. AND NOW, THE CAKE SHALL BE SERVED, THE FEAST SHALL TAKE PLACE, BECAUSE GOD IS HUNGRY AFTER A DAY AT SCHOOL

this scene had me laughing so hard to the point that i nearly puked

[d4rk-x-w0lf-17]

while i'm excited as fuck for spy x family's anime adaptation next year, this is the only scene i care about that they better not mess up

this scene honestly means so much to me. it shows that despite how much loid tries to keep his cool, he wants to prioritize the mission. he desperately wants to, but the second that anya cries? the moment that she shed a single tear because she was forced to remember something she probably didn't want to, because of something that someone said? that made loid snap and he was out for blood

Damian Wayne versus his grandfather, the immortal Ra’s al Ghul! For years, Batman’s son avoided learning the ways of the Demon from Ra’s, but now that training may be exactly what Robin needs to win the League of Lazarus tournament.

Plus, Ravager follows the mysterious Respawn into the secrets of Lazarus Island!

It’s Damian Wayne’s birthday, and the Bat-Family throws him a surprise party in the Batcave! But it seems someone has other plans, as a pair of ancient Hittite deities crash the party! Robin’s battle with Tarhun and Arinitti takes him on a wild ride all the way to Budapest, ultimately leading him to his grandfather, Ra’s al Ghul. As Batman wages a battle to rescue his son, Damian is left to ponder a life-altering question: choose immortality and stand at his grandfather’s side, or choose mortality and continue on his path alongside his father.

[nightwingthebooty]

If you’re still hating Talia in 2021 that’s so embarrassing. I’m so embarrassed for you. That’s cringe and you should probably keep it to yourself. 😬

[wesavegotham]

The only thing I can say to them is "congratulations for falling for DC's racist and sexist bullshit"

Some people really need to work on their critcial thinking skills.

[fancyfade]

also i’m re-reading the batman incorporated thing to go through some of damian’s run in order but like holy crap it’s bad.

like “batman sees visions of damian-as-batman in the future having sold his soul to the devil and everyone in gotham dies, so the logical conclusion is for him to send Damian back to the League of Shadows and his mother, who when being written by Morrison is an abusive villain-ball-carrier”

like first of all, i don’t think even the least charitable interpretation of batman would be like “yo i’m sending my 10 year old son back to the assassins who raised him due to some vague future vision stuff, without even trying to change or prevent that dumb future vision stuff”

and secondly, even if he did there’s no way that anyone else (dick especially) would let him go through with it or even let damian believe it was an option for half a second?

like it’s just. so bad guys.

[wesavegotham]

Yeah, a lot of people say Morrison is an incredible writer and their Batman run is “iconic” but I genuinely don’t really like it.

The art sucks most of the time, important events are never shown or explained, but it still manages to be convoluted, the villains are pretty flat, I kinda want to slap their Bruce, it’s full of sexist and racist tropes, there is a decent amount of homophobia in it too and…why does anyone like this?

“Morrison ties all of Batman’s history together!”

Yeah, and they get a lot of it wrong. Also, doesn’t make up for all the other places it sucks in.

“But Dick as Batman!”

Honestly…I feel like Dick forgot a lot of things he already knew just so Morrison could give him old character developement all over again. Dick is simply better as Nightwing if you ask me.

“But Morrison created Damian!”

At the cost of Talia’s entire character. And I like their basic ideas for Damian a lot more under other writers. Like, the complex relationship between Bruce and Damian that is just so much more compelling when Tomasi writes it compared to Morrison where they basically have no relationship and Bruce seems to be flat-out not interested in engaging with his son 99% of the time.

“But Dick and Damian as Batman and Robin!”

Morrison actually only wrote the first 16 issues of Batman and Robin (2009) and even in those issues Dick and Damian are apart for a significant amount of time. Like with Damian I like their relationship better when written by other writers.

Preview for Robin #1

[ihavestrongopinionsaboutbatman]

So I have a question. This guy just said that he heard both sides of Damian's family have fallen from grace, but as far as other people know nothing has technically changed with Batman right? People who don't know that he's Bruce Wayne don't actually know what happened other than the fact that he seems to be operating more cost effectively now, so how does this dude know that? Also found online that King Snake is Bane's dad in older continuities like wutt? Apparently he's the reason Bane and his mom were imprisoned in Santa Prisca too. Does this mans know his son is presumed dead? I mean I don't think he'd care but still.

[wesavegotham]

No idea about King Snake, I never read anything with that guy in it. Maybe someone else can answer that question.

Bruce is facing more problems than just the loss of his fortune right now. The people of Gotham have suffered under supervillains like Joker for years now and even though Batman always beats them eventually things don't seem to get better. In fact each attack on the city seems to be worse than the ones before Batman came. After Bane ruled the city for several months, Joker took over Gotham for the nth time in Joker War and hundreds of people got killed in Arkham in Infinite Frontier #0, seemingly the Joker's doing once again, the people of Gotham have had enough of Batman. They don't see him as the solution anymore, they see him as part of the problem.

They elected the anti-vigilante mayoral candidate Christopher Nakano into office after Joker War and after the attack on Arkham the pressure on Nakano to deliver on his promises is rising. Scarecrow is pulling the strings in the background and making people afraid, which will probably lead to Nakano agreeing to let the Magistrate into the city (where that can lead was explored in the Futur State Batman books) to get rid off all villains and all vigilantes.

So yeah, the people of Gotham are currently basically rejecting Batman.

Damian’s fans when a new issue of Teen Titans (2016) got released:

Damian’s fans promoting and advertising Robin (2021) after one prelude and one short preview:

[wesavegotham]

The Adam Glass run was promoted with this cover:

and this solicitation:

Batman has no idea what he’s doing. Superman? Not a clue. Wonder Woman? Whatever. Damian Wayne is Robin, and he’s done with the bleeding-heart approach favored by the heroes of the senior circuit. New plan of action: recruit a new Teen Titans. Kid Flash, Red Arrow and newbies Roundhouse, D’jinn and…wait, Lobo has a daughter? That’ll end well. And then build something in secret deep beneath the new Teen Titans HQ. Secret from his teammates, secret from even Batman. It’s a secret that will change the way you look at Robin forever!  

After reading the special and the first issue I was already pretty certain this was purely designed to kick Damian out of the Robin mantle in disgrace. There was no reason to get excited.

Williamson on the other hand promises me Damian as a hero, him going on an adventure that will impact the DC universe, kicking ass, positive character developement for Talia, cool new relationships and Williamson wants to include old friends of Damian at some point. He really seems to love the character and has read all of his books before starting this run.

And Gleb Melnikov’s art fits Damian’s character really well.

So far this seems to be a dream come true.
