Batman and Robin #25 preview

[sherkahn]

So the sons of Wayne don't always get along. Case in point.

ComicBookResources has the preview for Batman and Robin #25.

One behind the cut.





I love how Damien has finally been on the receiving end of a rant.

Not excited about the art, though. I see a LOT of influences, but no coherent vision.

Eh? This isn't DCnU. And Jason has always liked to intersperse a little levity amongst the brutal violence.

He's maybe a *bit* chattier here than usual.

I figure he's chatty because whilst he is the black sheep of the family he still wants to communicate with them... even if it is winding up the bejeezus out of them. *Especially* as he's winding them up. it does provoke a reaction- stony silence counts completely. He seems smug too. Feels like he's got slight middle child syndrome.

Yes, this!!

I do believe it was Tim Drake conversing once to Dick about Damien being "Cousin Oliver" so Jason being Jan Brady is totally believeable (and yes, that makes Tim be Cindy a fact he admits)

[kenwyn89]

Which issue? (I love reading the bat boys bonding).

Alas, I have not seen the Brady Bunch being a British small town girl. I think I need to go see to match the comparison :P

[anothermoviegeek]

for the life of me I can not remember where that was. I think it was the second brady bunch reference as well about the bat boys.

[anothermoviegeek]

oooh, here it is.

I am pretty sure this was part of Tim's "Hit List" story in Red Robin.

The other reference was earlier (I think) with Tim and Dick talking about Jason.

[anothermoviegeek]

the other reference was in the "Search For a Hero" run at the end of Tim's solo Robin book.

Many thanks! :D that panel was great!

[benicio127]

Than usual? xD I don't think this is all that unusual!

[whitesycamore]

He's travelling in a pine-scented hovercraft, wearing a fancy motorcycle helmet and jodhpurs, trying to make friends withnettle his estranged acrobat/homunculus brothers.

So no, not actually that unusual for Jason I guess. :D
