I know it probably won't be anywhere near Toronto for a while, but I'd love to see Turn off the Dark. Seeing Carnage onstage is enough to get me excited. As for the cheesiness factor, that's all part of the fun. You can't have a guy swinging around in spandex and not have some comedy in there.
As for the Batman musical, I wouldn't mind at all, so long as they include Superstitious Cowardly Lot.
I've been severely lacking on my B&TB episodes, so I must've missed that.....but, with Beetle, J'onn, Guy AND Batman all in the same episode, it be too good of an oppertunity to pass up on.
While all the other Robins were chosen by Batman (whether it be by their own merit [Dick], or to avoid some sort of inconvenience [Jason, Tim]), Damian was BORN to be Robin. Sure, he started off as an insufferable prick, but he's quickly becoming one of the most badass characters across the DCU. He's a Robin that's not wrought with personal tragedy, but with the quality of upbringing that allows him to excel at most everything he does.
The agility of Dick, the ruthlessness of Jason, and the intuitiveness of Tim. Damian is the perfect Robin.
I'm Canadian, so our Thanksgiving has come and gone. However, I was recently dealt some life-altering news (and it's not the good kind), so I am thankful for my friends and family, who have been supporting me through this whole mess
Although the "franchising" of Batman is an interesting concept, it immediately made me think of Batman & Robin #5, where Jason says "That's all Batman is now. A brand, an idea gone past it's sell-by date"....which is basically the truth as of the last issue. While it may beef up the patrol around Gotham, I think it would also make it hard for criminals to take Batman seriously, especially given the contrast of styles between Bruce and Dick.
As well, was going public really needed? Couldn't Bruce've just organized all the Bat-associated people and said "this is how it's going to be?", which would leave some of the Batman mystique intact.
