Hello /co/. Time for your weekly dose of shit.

Sorry. Electricity was acting up. Should be good now.

Despite what these two pages might make you think, they are indeed from a comic book.
>>

>>

That's it. Not too bad, just painfully mediocre. Though this >>77386843 was absolutely terrible.
>>
>>77386881
Yeah I second this guy.

The fuck did I do to you, OP? :/

Yes, a typical Czech name

I can hardly wait

This is gonna suck.

Stop. And what are you talking about?
>>
>>77386843
I don't mind prose in my comics, but this was just terrible. Is Tynion scripting the next one as well?
>>
>>77387417
>I don't mind prose in my comics
I do. If I wanted prose I'd read a novel.
>>
Has Snyder written a single issue of this yet? His name is in the covers, but has he written any of it?
>>
I lost any interest in this book.
>>
>>77387597
i think he's just doing plotting.
>>
>>77387597
>His name is in the covers
That is literally the whole point o having him on the project.
>>
>>77386573

I don't think this is terrible, I just think it's completely average.

It's really hard for me to summon enthusiasm for B&RE. The only part of the story that's interesting at all is reintroduction of Cassandra Cain. My eyes glaze over all the parts that don't involve her, but since she's so different from the original version, with apparently a completely different backstory, I don't feel the nostalgia for her. And since her contribution has been so lackluster with none of the cool physics-defying stunts that she was known for, there's no general excitement either.

I mean, it's better than Convergence: Batgirl and Futures End: Batgirl, but those were absolute shit so being better than them is hardly an accomplishment.
>>
Seeley's issues have been the most entertaining so far, but that's because he actually understands that the big draw of this series is about the Batkids interacting with one another. The plot has been really mediocre,
>>
Thanks OP

The story's good enough. I'm curious about what it all leads to in the end.

I know they're gonna cop out though and all the robins being part of Mother's secret plan is prob just bullshit.
>>
>>77386870
I thought it was a better issue than the last 2 weeks. Weird that Orlando has been the biggest dissappointment, probably because they gave him the worst fill ins.
>>
Haven't read this yet, but at least #5 had Tim Drake written like a human being, which is better than any other story with him in the New 52.
>>
Does anyone know when Valentine starts writing issues? Because this desperately needs her touch
>>
>>77386603
>He made three good decisions. He chose us

I'm pretty sure choosing you has always been one of his biggest regrets, Jason.
>>
>>77386752
>They colored the arrow green

I love how you can tell the artists are trying to ignore that part of the design as much as possible.
>>
>>77386752
>I hear Commissioner Gordon brought his daughter...

DickBabs forever.
>>
>>77387672
Then why does the plotting suck so much? Snyder has issues but he's not *this* bad.
>>
>>77389827
Because it's a Snyder/Tynion collaboration.
>>
>>77389827
But SNyder is this bad.
>>
>>77389557
Next week or in two.
>>
>>77386785
Hi David Cain.
>>
>>77389827
This and the other weekly were more Tynion's babies.
>>
>>77386666
>>77386733
>>77386745
>>77386752
Dick as Robin flashbacks are basically the only good part to the this entire weekly.

>>77386776
>>77386785
Also nice, he just compared Dick to his wife.
>>
It's a little annoying that they're developing more of a relationship between Harper and Cass than Steph and Cass
>>
>>77391670
I knew this would happen when they said Harper was a lead

Hopefully Steph and Cass with be friends at the end of this weekly like Steph and Harper were friends at the end of the last one
>>
>>77391670

I see them more giving Harper the Barbara role of Cass, than Stephanie's since she see's more to her than just being a weapon.

> end of series: Steph, Cullen, Cass, and Harper share an apartment.

> Cullen's Angels


Still, um... is Cullen still looking for help and wandering the streets of Gotham?
>>
>>77392080

Pre-FP Barbara was a mentor to Cass. Harper cannot be a mentor to anyone, she's a rookie herself.

Current Barbara can't really be a mentor to anyone either so I think that role is just gone.
>>
>>77392242

She'll teach Cass more words, Cass will teach her to fight.
>>
>>77391670
>It's a little annoying that they're developing more of a relationship between Harper and Cass than Steph and Cass

This. Pre-Flashpoint Steph & Cass's awkward, mismatched friendship borne out of mutual lonely desperation was one of the absolute best relationships in the DC universe, and they're pretty much just straight attempting to replace it with Sideshave the Hedgehog. I assume it's to lend legitimacy to Harper, but it fosters resentment more than anything.
>>
>>77386881
If Tynion had more subtly and hadn't fucked that one page up, I'd probably call this issue good

>>77389557
Pretty sure she's writing #7 and #8
>>
>>77389557
Not even Valentine can save this garbage.
>>
>>77389557
>>77392634

Who's Valentine and what does she write?
>>
>>77392405
It sounds like she's replacing Steph and Babs at the same time, then.
>>
>>77392716
Valentine wrote the latest Catwoman run (35-46) that just ended and was fantastic.
>>
>>77392716

She just wrapped up her run on Catwoman. Final issue of that run is being storytimed here:

>>77387727
>>
>>77392815
Because they want you to like her
>>
>>77392840
I wouldn't recommend readingt hat issue if you haven't read her run so far. You won't know or care what's going on.
>>
>>77392815

It sounds like she should FUCK OFF FROM MY COMIC.
>>
>>77392815
Babs is too terrible now to mentor a speech impaired girl.
She'd probably just talk down to her to make herself seem smarter.
>>
>>77392975
She'll teach Cass how to communicate through selfies and emojis.

>Dick takes Cass in
>Cass becomes a main character in Grayson

Who do you react /co/?

Also this issue was okay except for the clunky prose. Excited for Dick/Cass field trip even if it means having to deal with Herpes Row.
>>
>>77393740
>more batcharacters in Grayson

No.

It's bad enough that Tim is taking over for Bruce when it comes to talking to Dick. I'll only accept more batcharacters if it's in the form of a crossover between Grayson and Robin
>>
>>77393740

eh. Im a major Cass fag but I can't really say how IM liking this.

it's all just so boring. Why couldn't we have just had an underground Kumite about the real lady shiva looking for an heir to replace dino breath
>>
>>77393982
Because nobody cares about the Nightwing solo.

Just ignore it.
>>
>>77393779
>>77393982
Definitely, but I blame part of that on Snyder and his jimbats. Bruce and Cassandra interacting would be more interesting. As it is, everyone of the Robins is so out of sorts they're unreadable.
>>
>>77394038
Tynion probably wouldn't be able to write Bruce well either
>>
>>77389702
He should have mentioned that there was an alien princess in attendance as well
>>
>>77394038

Honestly at this point in my life Im pretty happy with the collection of comics ive built up and would sooner just reread those.
>>
I'd rather read about Jason and Tim being assholes than Dick having to put up with the girls.
>>
>>77386603
I still find it weird that Jason's the one who's been insisting on them all acting as brothers from issue 1.
>>
>>77398134
Still better than Lobell Jason

There are literally Lobdellfags complaining that Jason's acting out of character for being a reasonable human being
>>
>>77401529
Well is Lobdell's Jason unreasonable?
>>
>>77401529
>>
>>77389035
...Have you read the Gotham Academy guest appearance? That was actually really good. Even the Grayson appearances were relatively okay.
>>
>>77386637
Is this a Batman & Robin movie reference?
>>
>>77406807
He was still pretty arrogant in the Grayson appearance though
>>
>>77406807
What did he do in Gotham Academy?
>>
>>77408068
He was relatively nice to Maps and told her he considered her a Robin
>>
Okay wait... Wasn't Orphan made an "orphan" in #1 with the flashback ending of "Bruce" gunning down parents in front of a child in Egypt? This sort of suggests he's older and SOOOOO David Cain.

>>77386800

Then who's the kid then in #1 if that's not Orphan?
>>
>>77386666
I will never not find this redesigned robin costume shitty.
>>
>>77409001
He might not be important
>>
>>77409120
At least they tried to color the crotch arrow green.
>>
>>77410620

True. But I'd gather it'll be brought up again near #25 before this series' resolution.
>>
>>77413695
It might just be explaining what mother does
>>
>>77386870
>Takes Cass
>Takes Row instead of Steph

The lack of Stephanie in this event is turning me off from it.
>>
>>77386603
He didn't choose Tim though. Tim being the little cunt that he is forced his way in.
>>
>>77415796
Yeah, Dick doesn't have nearly enough teenage girls following him.
