Scott Lobdell Wants YOUR Questions: 8/27/11 [UPDATED]
What are your thoughts on the fake article that went around proclaiming that the comic would be exploring the idea of Tim Drake as an asexual and Superboy as a bisexual?
http://cluelessnu.tumblr.com/post/8910205891/dieuxfaux-blindflower-missveryvery-scott
1) Will events that have taken place in the Red Robin series still be cannon to Tim Drakes character?
2) Same question (sort of) but about Starfire and R.E.B.E.L.S series ?
3) Why no cape and cowel for Tim?
4) out of the three titles, which one has been the hardest to try and create?
Hey Scott, cheers for doing this. Two questions, one structural, one fan-boyish.
1) Your books throughout have had a healthy sense of humor, and I've heard Red Hood is following that tradition. What about the other two? Do you find that humor is quality you expect in superhero stories?
2) Can you say anything about the status of Stephanie Brown or Cassandra Cain? I love both these characters, and both have very interesting relationships with Tim and each other. I feel like they wilk building towards something with that triangle, and was curious if you had any plans for that triangle.
Thanks again, and good luck sifting through all these!
Man I love that he's doing this!!! So awesome that he's taking time to answer all of our questions...I hope more creators see this and decide to do the same

To start, I'm really anxious about the upcoming reboot. Nervous more so than excited, which is why this is so long.
Are Raven and Beast Boy hanging out with Donna in outer space? What about Wally? Was Lian born? Many of us would like for them to be alive in the DCnU, preferably not faking death.
Couldn't the creative team be more original with names before deciding on Bugg and THE WALL? And there are rumors that Tim and Cassie are at odds with one another. Does this have to do with their mutual love for Kon? Is Kon more how he was in the Young Justice run or is he more like the cartoon version? 'Cause this seems to be like a similar storyline to Young Justice the animated series and I prefer the Kon from the comics when he was younger. Personal opinion, though.
Earlier, you said, "Koriand’r doesn’t have a lot of fond memories with regards to her “first love” here on Earth, so don’t expect her to have any feelings of nostalgia for a handful of teenagers she doesn’t know." Why does DC devalue Dick and Kory's relationship so much? They loved each other and I understand if you guys want to ship Dick/Babs, but Kory was a huge part in Dick's life. He went from being a sidekick to his own man with her. Please don't write it out so that they were only in a relationship for the sexual aspect of it because it was much more than that. They still care very deeply for each other, even after breaking up, because being a Titan is all about being part of a family. And at the end of it all, families love each other, no matter what.
Also, not a question, but I love the fact that Jason seems to be associated with the Bat-fam again. Perhaps Mia can show up in an issue and reconnect with him and her brother?
all writers clearly have different writing styles that show when writing a characters actions, movements etc. my questions are,
What is Tim Drake's personality going to be like in this series? who of the other characters do you think are going to play bigger friendship or rival roles in Tim's life on the team? How different will Tim's fighting style be now that he has wings? And finally, how old is Tim going to be?
Are all pre-existing encounters/relationships between characters featured in Teen Titans still considered canon?
im ok with Bugg, but the wall....why did u name him the wall. if he has the power to create walls.. does that really clasify as super power? why would someone hunt a teen who can create walls? ..ok this might be plot related, sorry..
how does he relates to the TT, he is a happy boy, with a nice family...Tim is an orphan who was train by batman, or u could say a crazy vigilante depends on perspective, cassi has zeuz as a father, i suppose zeuz is still her father, connor has Lex and Kal-el as his ...genetics codes, Bart isn't even suppose to be born, the bugg, i have some crazy ideas so ill just stay silent..so THE WALL, what is his function in the TT? how does he fit in this class of environment, just for the adventure, that sounds like a sure kill..
also if he is mexican wouldn't u like to put him in a more traditional emmmm....colors. instead of purple?
love the new TT by the way...
the new redrobin uniform, niiice...
Scott,
Thanks for taking the time to answer. I have been reading comics since for a very long time now and I've been very disappointed on what DC/WB's decision on Cassandra Cain as a villain.
Will she ever come back as one of the good guys again? Maybe part of the Teen Titans?
DC/WB and other comic companies out there ALWAYS put out black characters and call it "Diversity." That is Not consider diversity, when ONLY black characters are created.
Will we be seeing more Asian superheroes (Not some martial artist expert) in the future? If not, then why?
Thanks!
Have you read the Red Robin series and do you plan to further the ideas that were shown in that series? Especially the final issue where RR almost kills Captain Boomerang
Thanks very much if you answer! I've never picked up a Titans book but will be getting your new series
Will the Outlaws have a base of some kind, somewhere they hang out when they're not out doing whatever it is they do?
First, I want to thank you for giving Jason his own book away from the Batfamily troubles that plagued his life. It's a great start that I understand...but not fully.
I don't think that Jason should be rid of ALL of them. For 1, I believe that Jason and Grayson's relationship as brothers should be shown more from time to time. Because to me...they were the two brotherly ones. He hates Tim, and doesn't care to know Damian.
I also would love to see Jason and Cassandra (Cain) meet. I believe strongly that these two could have a romance that would rival the likes of Bruce&Selina, and Grayson&Barbra. But they need their chance. This would also help to open Jason's character more to show how he is with someone he genuinely cares about, and it could also help to bring Cassandra into the new DCnU.
So my questions are as followed...
Can you allow this to happen? Because Jason needs a girlfriend, and Cassandra is perfect.
Is Jason's relationship going to be closer to Grayson like the brothers they are?
Does Superboy still have his anger problems?
Is anyone ever goin' to actually acknowledge that Tim STOLE Jason's Red Robin costume and identity? 'Cause Jason didn't give it to him...but yet he uses it like it always belonged to him.
And are the Outlaws goin' to be to Teen Titans, what X-Force is to the X-Men? 'Cause I don't know...that's just how I keep viewin' them.
Oh, and to answer a question of yours...Jason would beat Tim. Jason is stronger, faster, more agile, plans better (even on the fly), AND has more mastery over more fighting skills than Tim. Tim only has Jason on the detective stuff. That would only help him find Jason...but not beat him. So Jason is the better here. The fights shouldn't even be close.
SideNote: I'm not sayin' that Cassandra should ONLY be brought in for Jason to be with. She's an AMAZIN' character that could be on the team for the same reasons Jason is (she's too close to the Batfamily and needs a fresh start). But she could also have her own take on the team Like havin' Jason and Starfire break her into trustin' people more. And how she could be the one to sculled Jason if he gets too over the top with their missions. She could help him plan within a team instead of by himself...'cause that's what he's use to. And unlike Rose this would actually work better to the teams dynamic, and diversity. A Dead guy back to life, an Ex-junkie, an Alien Ex-slave, and a half-asian killer with people problems.
E-mail me at Ultimate_DarcStorm@yahoo.com I would like to send you somethin' awesome. And NO, it's not fan made stuff...unless you'd like me to send you some of that.
Naturally I'd love for you to refrain from the typical "Why do you suck?" and "Do you suck as bad as everyone says you do -- or worse?" But I'm not going to edit your questions -- so if that is what you want to put out in the Universe, I'll support you!
This was all i could think about
Crap I can't believe I missed this! Are you still taking questions? If so I had one.
Do you know if the cute mute of the Bat family Cassandra Cain will be appearing in any of your stuff? Specifically Teen Titans or Red Hood and the Outlaws?
I always loved Tim and Cassie's relationship, they were a pretty funny pair, the techie and the kung fu girl. I always hoped they would have been in a relationship, but apparently DC never saw anything to it. Him and Cassie were pretty close, I always liked that about them.
As for Jason, I mostly want to see him and Cassie square off. I was so pissed that Jason and Cass never met face to face or traded any blows, given how they were both the best fighters of their respected identities (Jason was the best fighter of the Robins, and Cass was the best fighter of the Batgirsl)
I hope you can get my question in.

ahhhhhh have i missed this?
i'll ask questions anyway :D
first off i know this is a stupid question but.... are starfires starbolts green or pink? , cuz i seen both variations on the cover, just wondering :P
Also, with the new 52 re-writing a lot of background, this is a good chance to bring back characters from the titans that have previously just been killed off for no reason, - for instance Lilith clay, the 6th member of the titans, killed, just like that, by that superman robot. well she's been around for about 50 years, I'm sure she'd have a decent turn out at her funeral...no, it was a small ceremony or whatever - basically she was fobbed off (british term ;) ). what i'm saying is you could do justice to old, good characters and give them a new lease of life, or at least pay tribute to them with a cameo? :D (lilith, maybe argent could return? AND Anima - c'mon, that new costume she had on made her HOT - wasted on a quick death.)
In one of your interviews you mention a new character to join the outlaws named Crux. Would you be allowed to give more information on him?
Did the events of red robin #26 still happen or is Tim's character Lighter
Is jack drake dead
Is the charcoal girl Greta Hayes from young justice comic
Will Mia deaden (speedy) join
Any chance Jason Todd and Huntress will meet ?
Why does he have a Bat logo on his chest ?
Will he still use his Knife ?
Is everything in Red Hood Lost Days still canon?
Will I get to see Jason kick Tim's butt? Will Superboy be like his Young Justice counterpart? Will Superboy ever wear a leather jacket ever again? Are Jason and Roy gonna argue about everything? Will Jason and Dick interact? Will Jason and Conner get NEW girlfriends?Dude! You asked ALL the questions I wanted answered. Nice job.
