I know a lot more people will be wondering who Oberon Sexton is after reading Batman and Robin #10. I believe his first appearance was in Batman and Robin #4. Not a lot is known about him and he doesn't even have a page here. So who do you think is under the mask? Dick Grayson himself said in Batman and Robin #10 that something was very familiar about him.

this has been asked so many times
 
i believe Oberon Sexton is a anagram just like Dracula used Alucard as an anagram in the movie. (not saying it needs to be backwards just play with the letters a bit  ;) )

lol oh I looked around a bit in the threads but I didn't find any oberon sexton specific ones, I guess I didn't dig hard enough, What anagram have you derived from oberon sexton?

@Voidheart: 
Oh wow whoops, Batman and robin #10 sparked my interest in oberon sexton even more, Who do you think he is

Jason Todd perhaps, or someone who wants to make it up to someone.

I thought he was in Jail, I don't know Oberon doesn't seem like Jason Todd's style.  I heard some people talking about the joker or perhaps even Bruce Himself

Could also be Hush, acting like bruce wayne, making Dick think he's bruce when he takes off the mask.

Hush is currently teaming up with Ra's in Red Robin.
 
There was a strong hint that it was Bruce in issue 10, but I don't think it is, that'd be way too obvious.

That's what what got me wondering who he is? Maybe he's Xorn

Bruce's xorn would be Hush.
 
or

@Voidheart: 
 
Grant Morrison won't use Hush like that, he only uses his own babies, Hush is Jeff Loeb and Paul Dinis baby

I'm guessing either an extraordinarily obscure character that even I have never heard of or a Grant Morrison original. The name does seem like Morrison might have created him

Me. 
I'm Oberon Sexton.

@batarrowlantern: proof?
#22 Posted by Primmaster64 (21131 posts) - 3 years, 13 days ago - Show Bio

Yes the joker

@batarrowlantern: There is a button on this website for hiding spoilers. You highlight what you want to hide and press the big red button above the text box. It's not that difficult, and much better than YOUR spoiler warning. You honestly think that writing the spoiler immediately after the warning was a good idea? That people could avoid the spoiler easily? You're an idiot and you just spoiled it for me. Thanks a lot.  
 
@Primmaster64:
 Wow. You didn't even bother to put up a warning of any kind. You just flat out spoiled it. Thanks.

Sorry man...anyway someone already said it before me.

So? This is a different page, for one thing, people might have not read the previous page and now you've spoiled it. Just edit your post and use the damn spoiler button, before you spoil it for anyone else. 
 
And I was actually skeptical when the first dude said it, because of the way he said it. Then you agreed with him. So yeah, thanks.

@-Eclipse-: thats not fair on your behalf to blame him for agreeing.

It was your curiosity that made you click the next page.

It's not fair that people can't use the spoiler button... How was I supposed to know they revealed who Sexton was already? I thought we were still in the speculation stage and I don't get my comics for another couple of weeks... 
 
Maybe it's not fair to blame Primmaster, but the guy who originally spoiled it isn't here for me to vent at, so I'm going for the next best thing.

Even when the other person agreed i still took it as speculation until i saw the picture of it on this website in one of the forums.

#29 Posted by Emperor Gonzo Noir (19681 posts) - 3 years, 13 days ago - Show Bio

I was surprised but, it's true

Have you seen the profile page for the character-who-turns-out-to-be-Sexton recently? Talk about not spoiling things... LOL

What did you expect to see when you read the title "Who is Oberon Sexton?" ? who he isn't? :D

LOL 
 
Like I said, I was expecting speculation, since I thought Morrison would keep his identity secret a little longer. Thought it'd be fun to see who everyone else THOUGHT he was, not who he actually was... xP

Well people have the tendency of being right sometimes, harsh reality xD
