Who is more fit for the role of Batman after Bruce dies?

Dick

a few months ago I would have said damian.....but they threw that out the window didn't they....so Dick

Dick Grayson

Dick should take the role of Batman.

Tim is the only one on bruces level with his detective work.

@zr0c00l: tim may be the best detective, but everyone knows grayson is the best option to replace bruce.

Tough choice between Dick and Tim, but I voted Dick.

It's Grayson, not Greyson by the way.

And I think Dick Grayson would be the best Batman.

Dick is just the most natural replacement IMO.

I voted for Dick, but I want to see a Jason Todd Batman

Oh, and this isn't a battle. This belongs in the General Discussion Forum Board.

Did batman die?

Dick Grayson should stay as Nightwing. Tim is the better option

Terry.

@nefarious What?!?! Why?

Agree 100%

Dick

Tim.

Terry McGinnis! He is essentially his son as much as Damian is! And...I like him better :P

The detective work is not everything. Who fits it the most, who truly belongs, is Dick Grayson.

In order:

Dick

Tim

Jason

Damian

Jason. The ultimate redemption, plus we could cut back on people complaining about the no-kill rule.

Dick or Terry would be better Batmen than Bruce himself.

Dick was Batman for a while and he did a good job.

dick even though he should shed the bat if ever bruce died and became the symbol bruce always wanted to be

I like dick, Bruce likes dick, everybody likes dick so he wins...dick grAyson

1. Damian.
2. Tim.
3. Dick.
4. Jason

But really I'd prefer if they stick to their own identity than copy Bruce's, not that Bruce will ever die but if he does than I can see three things

• Damian Taking up the cowl : He doesn't have his own identity, and being the Son of Bat it would suit him best.
• Someone new other than the Robins : It would be better if someone other than the Robins take up the mantle, maybe Terry or Blake or some other new guy.
• Batman Corps : This would be the best way to go, a bigger and better version of Batman Inc. I would like if Bruce gives up the cowl when he's older say 60-70 and form a special police type force where everyone gets to wear the Batman like suit or Armors and operate within the government and works under him. Bruce would be the head of the department and assign missions to them and also go with them on missions until he retires.

While right now Dick would be the best successor (as he did fine when he did take over) However, Dick doesn't want to be Batman. If there is no other option, he'd do it again, but he doesn't want to be like Bruce. One of the facets of his character is that he is always struggling to get out of the Batshadow.

The best overall option is Damien (if/when they resurrect him). He was alway presented as a prince, has the most raw physical potential, may be the most intelligent of all the Robins, and he admired and idolized Batman more than any of the other Robins. The problem Damien always struggled with is overcoming his upbringing by a clan of amoral assassins. He needs to develop a better sense of morality rather than not killing just because it would displease his father.

dick is best

He was getting there before DC and Morrison killed him.

TIIIIIIIIMMMMM, Dick is Nightwing!

While Dick has spent the most time with Bruce, and did very well when he stood in as Batman during Bruce's travels through time, the reason for him becoming Nightwing in the first place was really him carving out his own identity and not having to be part of Bruce's shadow anymore.

With that said, both Damian and Jason have been shown as far too aggressive and merciless to really take up the mantle, so I vote for Tim. As @rdclip stated, Damian will be the better choice if they resurrect him and he truly does have gain a greater moral understanding, but until then, Tim is the best pick. I think Jason's too far gone in his ways to become Batman now.

The Joker probably

Dick is the only one that actually deserves it. If he decided not to, then I'd let Tim. If not that, then they should just introduce Terry McGuiness into the main bat titles. To be honest, Damian would destroy the legacy (being Bruce's son does not mean you deserve to be Batman, he wasn't deserving of being Robin either), the same goes for Jason. Both are too violent and teeter between good and evil. Besides, neither could survive their time as Robin which in itself is a test...
