I say that DC needs to keep the crossovers to a minimum. I get it's how the business functions, but all I'm interested in reading are Batman stories with Batman kicking ass in Gotham, Superman fighting his rogues in Metropolis, and so on. I'm personally much more interested in their own self-contained stories rather than a company-wide crossover. If a crossover event is contained to only a few select titles, ok. But I don't want to have to buy all those issues of a book I don't collect just to follow the story (I was enjoying TEEN TITANS until "The Culling" crossover. That one annoyed me. I'm really glad that story is done, as I'd rather just read straightforward stories about the team trying to figure out how to work with each other). We'll see, but I really hope that whatever next big event that's coming, it at least better be organic rather than forced upon all the writers. I'd much rather let Scott Snyder keep telling his Batman story without concern about some Trinity War happening somewhere.
i have the same feeling. i like the characters doing their thing in their city. Although, night of owls was pretty cool as it affected all the gotham based titles.
i don't really see the big deal here. Tim still served as a "Robin" except he was known as "Red Robin" the whole time....the idea that he was more a partner than a sidekick makes sense as he actually figured out who batman was showing there is something "special" about him as compared to the other Robin's.
