Date: 2011-09-23 03:10 pm (UTC)Honestly I kinda hope that this is the same thing honestly! I like the idea of books playing closely together but not necessarily crossing over in every aspect. It makes things feel like they are in the same universe which is what DC is trying to do isn't it?

Date: 2011-09-23 12:41 pm (UTC)Bruce needing HUD contacts for social interactions doesn't work for me, and actually puts me off the same way as relying on Oracle to do detective work did. Bruce shouldn't need prompts, he KNOWS this stuff, it's part of what makes him Batman.
Unimpressed by the classic rogue redesigns, especially Two-Face and the Riddler.
Nice family moments. Interesting that Alfred has a higher security clearance than Dick or Tim, but not too jarring.
The next issue had better have Bruce dismissing this as a frame up job IMMEDIATELY, because if Batman can't implicitly trust his kids, this is back to the old Batprat I haven't missed.

It's not needing prompts, it's needing time. Delegating what he can lets him solve the crime faster, thus go on to the next unsolved crime. No shortage of that in Gotham.

Date: 2011-09-23 07:58 pm (UTC)Damian is playing to a stereotype with his shoes rather than his personal tastes. At first glance I thought they were a red version of his Robin boots.

Date: 2011-09-23 09:20 pm (UTC)Dick is supposed to be 5'9 to 5'10 tops. That's not THAT tall. He's an acrobat, he should sorta squat anyway. He's only 21 so he can look quite youthful.
Tim is only 5'6-5'7, he's always been atypical and SHORT. It was something they've constantly jabbed about in Robin, and he's only 16 post reboot (from 17 where he was before) so it should still apply.
Damian can be anywhere from 4'8-5'0 I think...
I guess Cass has been retconed into not being an adopted daughter.
