Ya know I've seen people who draw Damian like he's older than he is but this is ridiculous. He looks like he could be Tim's age, not ten. I think it stands out cause I just reread all of Batman and Robin that's out but jeez, dude.

Well Leifeld only comes in two sizes it seems: Underfed teenager or Steroid bloated giant.

He's not acting all that much like Damian, either. Maybe Tim stole his costume.

Liefeld did a Titans story in the last Titans. Should have been Tim, looked like Dick. He just draws generic versions of characters

So much about this which is terrible....

That first panel....it's not physically possible to support your weight like that (also, the atrocious bat symbol LOL)

The aforementioned Damien looking to be in his mid/late teens problem

The way Liefield draws Dove's cape specifically only ever gets worse rather than better

...of course it makes perfect sense they are giving Liefield more books, why do you ask? :D

Wow, he's really improved. Now he's just not very good. It's honestly better than Land's pornface, IMO.

Still not sure why comics employ so many bad artists.

Indeed, aside from being as off model for Damian as it's possible to get without actually making him Steph, this isn't as egregious as I might have thought. It's still not good, but is merely bad rather than horrifying.

I think it's a game. You have to find two panels where Damian is drawn the same age.

Quite so. It's still pretty bad, but my eyes don't physically hurt, so that's a huge plus.
Could it be the additional responsibillity of drawing DC's New 52 titles and internet criticism is getting to him?

Yep, that's one thing off my checklist of Things I Had To See Before I Die: Batman's Poop Grimace.

Maybe I should be thankful that at least the Liefeld didn't give him boobs but that actually doesn't help the tinny little voice screaming in my head.

I'll say this, Hawk calling Batman "blowhard" was pretty funny. Also, Damian being all "Bitch please, I was trained by assassins."

Well, the art is sort of passable. But hey this Liefeld fella is new to comics so he'll have time to improve. Wait, he's been an artist how long? Usual Liefeld art comments aside...

But yeah. something tells me Liefeld wasn't quite sure if he was drawing Tim or Damian here because Robin looks like some sort of cross between the two.

... it's like vintage Gil Kane, only horribly, horribly wrong.

And, way to tell a story, O Graphic Storyteller -- by calling the action in captions while we're looking at it. Did Liefeld learn his dramatic writing technique from Cooks Illustrated Magazine?

I get the feeling of motion, that he WAS balanced on top of the thing but now he's throwing his weight forward to flip off of it.

I could see that--probably would work better if he was simply crouching down in that panel, the "enough" panel having him starting to leap down, and the next having him drop to the floor.

That last scan. The art(?) looks as if it's the moment before a punch but the dialogue seems to indicate that Hawk already hit him and Blockbuster going down but he still has his eyes open and there's no background so where are they in relationship to Batman in the last panel how did he move so that Hawk would hit him, why did he move if he had him groggy and Damian doesn't have a neck when "side kicking" that other person and how does that make him dangerous to Hawks internal monologue and that face in that last panel doesn't look human at all and asdsfdgffgfdcsamrk
