Didn't really like him. But as I kept reading stuff with him, I liked him.

So, kind of. I wouldn't mind.

C. Too damn many Robins, who can keep track? He makes a good target, though, more easily aimed at than Batman, so it's not like he doesn't serve his purpose.

yes and I hope Jason Todd goes down with him.

Leave Damian and just kill off Todd. That's my opinion on the subject.

N000000 something like that would devastate batman. And he's a badass character.

#17 Posted by KnightRise (3658 posts) - 5 months, 4 days ago - Show Bio

No. I think the "hate Damian phase" is over. Unless people haven't been reading lately

#18 Posted by Charetter115 (475 posts) - 5 months, 4 days ago - Show Bio

Lol, I actually like Jason as Red Hood, but only the New 52 version, where as I dislike Damian's arrogance, disrespect to Batman, overall lack of common sense, and lack of morals. I still like Dick Grayson as Nightwing and Tim Drake as Robin most.

I'll have to agree to disagree, this is the only consensus possible.

No, he is the most interesting Robin in my opinion.

But if he stopped being Robin, wouldn't that just open the job up for someone else? Wanting him not to be Robin because there are too many Robins doesn't make any damn sense.

^This, This, A THOUSAND TIMES THIS. I don't necessarily agree with your opinions about Damian though. It's important for a character to have flaws.

I think Tim fits the role of Robin the best but Damian is my second favorite Robin. He's definitely had the most character development inside the role ( I only say "inside the role" because Jason's character developed a hell of a lot as well but only after he had become Red Hood.)

#25 Posted by Timandm (3374 posts) - 5 months, 4 days ago - Show Bio

Of all the Robins, he's my favorite.

#26 Posted by satyrgod (2113 posts) - 5 months, 4 days ago - Show Bio

@JakeN7: My thought is that there should be no more Robins. What's the point of the character if he doesn't take up the Batman mantle when Bruce is too old or dead. Either allow the characters to age or discontinue Robin altogether. Stupid characterization, silly outfit, bad idea.

@satyrgod: "What's the point of the character if he doesn't take up the Batman mantle when Bruce is too old or dead?"

But he did...

Remember this?

And this?

@satyrgod: "Either allow the characters to age or discontinue Robin altogether."

How have they not aged?

Dick became Nightwing

Jason became Red Hood

Tim became Red Robin

Damian's character development has shown nothing but progression.

@satyrgod: "silly outfit"

I feel like the costume has become significantly less silly over time. Case in point...

I think 2 years ago I would of said yes, but he has grown on me. He has a lot of story possibilities and if you give him to the right writer you can actually enjoy reading his character.

It just seems proper for him to me. (Note: I've never read a comic with Azrael in it) He appears to me that he's a batman esque character who kills, but is firmly good. Somewhat like Red Hood. Damian would perfectly fit that role.

He doesn't need to be killed, but I'd like to see him move past being Robin. I like most of the Robins in their post-Robin identities, but I'm not fond of the "Robin" persona. I get that its tradition but it never seemed to fit to me. Batman decides to wage a war of terror on the criminal underworld by preying on the fear of his enemies. He then takes on a series of child apprentices who dress in brightly colored costumes and also participate in his crusade. You can see where the logic breaks down.

#34 Posted by chasereis (627 posts) - 5 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

I was apprehensive at first, but I am glad that I gave him the opportunity. I really like Damian's character and he has earned the Robin title. I dont like the days of future past crap "ending" they have crafted in his wake though. That was stupid and it really limits his growth potential as a character.

#35 Posted by YoungJustice (5670 posts) - 5 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

No.

I like Damian.

I hate the good boy robins, boring.

#36 Posted by Mucklefluga (1524 posts) - 5 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

#37 Posted by fodigg (4486 posts) - 5 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

No. He's a good character.

#38 Posted by Dernman (11356 posts) - 5 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

No. I hated the character in the beginning but he grew on me.
I agree that there are to many Robins though. The thing is they should have erased Damien/Robin when the 52 started. Now it's too late.

#39 Posted by Charetter115 (475 posts) - 5 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

@satyrgod: Damian can never become Batman because Batman does not kill. Damian would kill every criminal he can if Batman wasn't there to stop him.

#40 Edited by Jean199999 (477 posts) - 5 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

Damien shouldn't die. He needs to fulfill his destiny and become one of the greatest villains the DC Universe has ever seen.

#41 Posted by Charetter115 (475 posts) - 5 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

@Jean199999: he will never stand up to the likes of Darkseid or even scarecrow, but he acts without thinking, it will get him killed, I would find it interesting for him to become a villain though...maybe a Merc...I've got it! He will replace Ra's...he is always looking for the perfect replacement, i think he just found it. MWAHAHAHA

#42 Posted by Hazlenaut (1679 posts) - 5 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

No I want him to learn his lesson and shape up. I don’t want his death be a regret that Batman morn he cannot save, again.

#43 Posted by redhoodnet (153 posts) - 5 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

No...

The problem would be that if he was killed off then who who become Robin?

Tim, Dick and Jason all have their own thing going on.

And Batman and Robin is selling pretty well, plus we have Batman INC

#44 Edited by YourNeighborhoodComicGeek (13824 posts) - 5 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

No.

He's not my favorite character, but killing him off this soon wouldn't work, and plus he's not that bad of a character anyways. Damian's a decent Robin.

#45 Posted by Selinaky (666 posts) - 5 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

No, he's becoming amongst my favourite characters!

#46 Posted by Hazlenaut (1679 posts) - 4 months, 28 days ago - Show Bio

perhaps i should retract vote on no and choose stop being robin. As I said he need learned that his actions can result consequences.

#47 Posted by Nightwing28710 (157 posts) - 4 months, 8 days ago - Show Bio

Absolutely. I don't like Damian. Not even a little bit.
