You can't.

Agent 37 is the best Dick, though.

Mostly agree. Absolutely loved Morrison's new status quo with him as the fun and fancy free Batman and Damian as the brutal Robin. Should still be going on today as Bruce should still be global Batman instead of grunting and punching his way through Gotham ad nauseam. Bruce and Damian just doesnt work. Snyder a shit. Eagerly awaiting Morrison's return to Batman black and white and whatever else.

>>78271277

Basically anything that wasn't Tony Daniel was fantastic.

You should check out the Batman/Detective Comics annuals that introduced Nightrunner. That was pretty damn terrific.

I would love to see some sort of multiverse chicanery where Dickbats teams up with DCAU Terry.

Post-Morrison B&R was straight up trash except the very last issue.

>>78271219
He hated being Batman so much he threw a Darkseid clone into a lazarus pit and accidentally created an evil zombie Batman.
>>
>>78271597

The idea that they were going with, great writers do three issue arcs that introduce new villains, was a good one. Unfortunately, it also showed that you need more space to breathe and maneuver when you're writing a bat story.
>>
>>78271692

I never got the sense that he hated being Batman. It was more along the lines that he was overwhelmed, and he needed his dad. Remember, that was after Damian was crippled by Jason Todd, and needed to be sent back to his mother to get patched up.

Another case of 2deep4u

>>78271859

I do not understand Cornell. He can write shit that's character defining like Demon Knights, Knight and Squire and The Black Ring, and then he can do shit like that.
>>
>>78271705
That was not the idea at all though. Tomasi and Gleason were announced as the new regular team but their start was delayed for some reason so DC got Cornell and McDaniel to put together a fill-in in literal weeks. Then they suddenly decided it's time to reboot so Tomasi/Gleason jumped to New 52 issues and we got another fill-in of Winick's Jason-wankery.
>>
>>78271899

It all makes sense, now. I totally thought they intended to do the single arc thing. Well, at least that sort of excuses why those arcs were so mediocre.

Well, except for the one in France. That one was fantastic.

What's not to like about a villain who pretends to be edgy so they get underestimated?

...because the entire concept of someone with a gigantic hole bored straight through their head is an insanity that's beyond the usual comic book chicanery.

Your second usage is a little more accurate than your first.

The whole idea was that she wasn't the typical "airhead" bimbos that playboy Bruce has on his arm. Do you get it?

Chicanery is a perfectly cromulant word.

See? He wasn't overwhelmed, he didn't think he couldn't be Batman, he didn't want to go back to being Nightwing. He just wanted Bruce to be alive again.

I like this take that, while Bruce saw Dick as a son, Dick sees Bruce more as an older brother that he's also responsible for. And it's paralleled with Squire acting almost maternal towards Knight.

She probably grew up in the late 90s/early 2000s Batfam era, so she liked Jason when he wasn't a whiny edgelord (ie, when he was dead)

And we're seeing the Damian version with people hating on Duke and WAR so Damian won't end up like Tim.
>>
>>78277753
Morrison prefers Bruce and Dick as big brother/little brother.

I kinda wanna know what other writers think of them as too. I think Johns prefers them as father and son.
>>
>>78279447
That opinion is wrong.
