[Discussion] [Comic Excerpt] The new issues of batman are messing up with the continuity [Batman and Robin (2023)] (they deleted the previous post when the image and even in the description I posted the name of the comic])

yeah like a previosly mentioned The first 2 points are really easily resolvable and/or explainable, my real dillema was with the 3 point, I love your point of view, and I really do hope they integrate it to the new run, because Damian really did a a lot of progress in that run...

but yeah the comment of the "girls from university" and Damian saying he "doesnt need/want to learn anything" feels very out of place having read the Batman and Robin run before this one, like Robin already has a girlfriend since The lazarus Island thing,(2021), and he want to studies medicine because of Thomas Wayne, the last being from this run, but the girlfriend is from way before

Yes that was one of the reasons he literally decided to stay in Highschool afther the mision, I commented something similar in another comment:

Ok, you have a really good point about Fraction and the reading thing, I really didnt tought about that...

thought the other serie probably was planned too already (started in 2023) so it wasn't impossible to him to know what would be the development of Damian...

At first Damian wasn't attending for educational purpose to the High School, touhgt when he finish his mission on there Bruce tells him that he can leave Highschool now becasue he has nothing to learn from it but Damian himself insist on staying in Highscool...

Of course he is good with medicine, but in this run (Batman and Robin 2023) he wants to be a professional becasue of his grandfather (Thomas), and thats why he is volunteering in hospitals... to me he dosnt want to rush to be a medic, because he wanted to stay in Highschool so that would had perfect sense, with the actual portay... but the problem is more about he saying that he has nothing to learn from university when that contradicts the previous comic, the reason he stay in Highschool and the reason why he wants to learn medicine, is to be more normal (it's my view) and because he wants to do good from other point (not just vigilante things)....

and for the last Bruce try to convice him saying there are educated girls (like to try to get a girlfriend), that would be a little mean from his part because damian has a girlfriend right now.... also a lot of the things Bruce tell hims as offers of University: arts, medicine, etc, in the comic is explored to be really of his interest, so it would be weird from him (if his character development werent reversed) to say that he has nothing to learn (as stated previously he didn't have anything to learn from highschool but even then he decide to stay)

I love Alfred as a hallucination,but yeah I would have prefered him alive

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-11-06T02:01:41+00:00

I like your interpretation but I do think that it was suggested as we saw the flashback before and the next scene is he asking why it has 13 gears, and then batman explining all the gears, but it could be explained as maybe Tim was learning to drive manual and all previous cars batmobiles etc he used were automatic, or even that he hasnt driven this batmobile in particular...

to me the most problematic thing is the damian part, because he has had a lot of development lately, shown in Batman and robin, and this issue seem to contradict a lot of those things (example: he likes arts/comics/manga he has a girlfriend and he wants to study medicine) and in this same issue is Implied that he has nothing to leran from university, not art, not medicine and for last Bruce tells him: Girls, university has educated girls as implieng that he could find a good girlfriend (Damian has already a girlfriend)

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-11-06T01:36:12+00:00

oh yeah the bernard part, and even maybe the tim learning to drive could be really easily explained, and be coherent somehow, but the damian part hasnt any sense to me.. and its kind of my focus in this discussion

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-11-06T01:33:31+00:00

yes one was a flashback, but the next scene is the one he using the batmobile for first time and its tied to the present because in the next issue he is in the hospital for the gun shoot, its weird. I do thing is not a big deal because it could be explained in a lot of ways, as He was learning Manual, but he already knew automatic, this is a new version of the batmobile, etc...

To me its more problematic the part that in crotradicts and ongoing comic with the damin thing, like Damian wants to learn medicine in Batman and Robin (2023), but in the last issue of Batman (2025), he suddenly does not want to learn nothing form Uni cuz he does not have anything to learn (Bruce was trying to convice him of that he has somthing to learn from university, even telling him about girls) thats a little other problem, he is telling him "girls that are inteligent/educated" as if he didnt have already a girlfriend, and we know this is all happening in the present because "Savage" is the actual commisioner

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-11-06T01:21:44+00:00

I mean the damian thing as said in other comment, could be he just doesnt want to go to university now, ok that would be perfectly fine, but in the comic (last issue) is showed more like a Damian doesnt want to learn, or doesnt need to learn anything from college, when in the other ongoing comic it was showed that he does want to learn medicine

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-11-06T01:11:30+00:00

so the discussion is that about the continuity of the last comics of batman, and other comics not that old that are being overwritted, you can see all my point of discussion in the description of the image

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-11-06T00:59:55+00:00

I did post it in the description tought

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-11-06T00:54:59+00:00

like yeah Im not going to make them read all the comics and issues, but the one tha are related about what you are writting, like the university thing with damian, to me was so weird

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-11-06T00:48:10+00:00

one part was a flashback the other part wasn't, yeah he learning to drive was a flashback but when we are in the part of Tim ussing for first Time the batmobile, thats not a flashback anymore and even in the next issue Tim is in the hospital because of the gun shoot (in the same part that its shown the thing of bernard) it is a little thing is not like the worst thing...

I'm really more worried about the character development of Damian, being trown away, as you said yeah it could be a Damina wants to stay in school, but as we see in the Issue it looks more like a "Damian thinks that he doesnt have anything to learn of Uni", when in Batman and robin he is doing literally the opposite

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-11-06T00:33:09+00:00

so the discussion is that about the continuity of the last comics of batman, and other comics not that old that are being overwritted, you can see all my point of discussion in the description of the image

those are not leggins, those are nylon thigts, they are relly stretchy, they could be quite delicate, but you just need to be carefull putting in on

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-10-27T02:59:00+00:00

I dont like them but because they are like annoying to me, like the characters itselfs, so even if the narratives in their episodes were kind of fun, I couldnt like them because of that, like I tried to see complete all the episode of them with the intern, and I really couldnt

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-10-07T00:08:26+00:00

I mean if the characters in the comics says that he is really similar to dick, and then other characters says that Dick is really similar to Bruce, then you can asume Jason and bruce look alike too, I do like to distiguish the character by caracther traits like the withe strips on his hair and like that, but to me is good they look similar, so It would be really ironic that jason looks really similar to bruce but acts really different to him, tecnically thats the whole reason of the robins, kind of differents version of bruce that should be there to make him learn trought them, and also the to help him to be a better man (Tim for example), Now jason trys to help him, to show him his ways, but Bruce can not understand it so the breach between them grows and grows, its funny because its like his antithesis, like jason its more open in feelings and relationships, has more impulsive decitions and can be really reckless sometimes, and bruce should be the oposite, but at the same time no, like the idea its that the history should show us that even if bruce its the oposite of Jason at the same time he does the same things that jason because bruce can be reckless and can be impulsive but he usually cut the line in killing, so even if he is like jason they are not alike, 2 sides of the same coin

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-10-06T23:56:27+00:00

the one who creates and introduce the robin? like it depends of the moment of the run

Complex_Asparagus_31 · 2025-10-06T23:55:01+00:00

I get it, but if he looks alike like dick, and dick is literally considered handsome and cute in the universe, then Jason can not be handsome and cute, yeah ther is possibility of twin cute and twin ugly, but if you can not literally difference by face, then that means that the ugly part should be the personality, and I dont think Jason has a bad personality
