Coleen Coover's Dynamic Duo...

[icon_uk]

I'm indebted to the excellent OzandEnds blogspot (Which has a regular Robin column) for pointing out this nifty little strip

It's a goodbye gift from Colleen Coover to Nate Cosby, the first editor to hire her to work for Marvel, and who was leaving the company.





Somehow I can just see this take on the Dynamic Duo, with Robin, the exhaustingly ever-eager, if well meaning, kid on an endless sugar-rush of excitement and adventure... and Batman, as Batman really.




I agree with the posters who A) Love "Robin as Muppet" and B) Want a T-shirt of "To hunt the night, I guess"

Oh, he'd be worse then "bored" he'd be "finding something new to help with whether it needed help... or even doing.. at all".

Yeah, I can guess how THAT would go.

'Dick! What are you doing?'

'Oh, hey Bruce! I'm washing the Batmobile!"

'Washing the Batmobile.'

'Yeah! It's been looking kinda grungy, so I thought 'what kinda way is that to look for the faithful car of the DYNAMIC DUO?' So I'm cleanin' it!'

'Dick, that's... very nice of you, but...'

'Aw, no worries, Bruce! Gosh, when I'm done, it's gonna SPARKLE!'

'...but you do realize that there is a reason why we have an automated system to do that.'

'We do? Gosh, why?'

'Because there are fifty security systems installed in that thing, and if even ONE is...'

'Oh, THAT! Don't worry, Bruce, I'll be careful! Hey, what's this do?'

'NOOOOOOOOOOOO!'

ZZZZZZZZZT
