Panel as it appeared in the issue,



And then in the trade,



And again, here is the panel from the issue,



While in the trade the last three captions, mentioning previous incarnations of the Teen Titans, have been removed entirely.


Censorship is fun! ^^

That's what I've been thinking. Honestly Damian has grown on me quite a bit, but he'd be the obvious choice to retcon out. The explanation they gave doesn't even make sense. Wouldn't taking a name that sounds a lot like it be just as shoe stepping into as just taking his name? And, again, other writers have already established that he's a Robin. Consistency and logic, they're like Kryptonite and Red Sunlight to the DCnU.
