Yes please! Batman and Robin
Promo image for Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely's forthcoming Batman and Robin. The All Star Superman duo are reclaiming that phrase! Due June, the series will feature the Battle for the Cowl winner as the Dark Knight Detective; as well as, what appears to be, Damian Wayne as a scowling, rumble ready Robin. Morrison has indicated that the team-up will be a role reversal piece with this new Batman taking a lighter approach, whilst this bad-ass Boy Wonder seethes. Count me in! Damian Wayne is a wonderfully wonky addition to the Bat-Family. Born of a techno tryst between Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul, Damian is a pampered pre-teen nutter, who thought nothing of sucker-punching current Robin: Tim Drake off a stuffed dinosaur. Meaning to impress, this attempt on Drake's life was Damian's bid to claim his rightful position as Son of Batman. Can't have strays muddling up his heir apparent dynamic, can he? It's the assassin's way! Quite unconcerned with any issues of morality or restraint, Damian is an adorable little vandal.
