I can just picture Steph suggesting it, all "EVERYONE! I've had a BRILLIANT idea!"

I can also see Damian being extremely unimpressed, and Dick just..not really getting the joke, but trying not to say so outright because Steph was so into it. :P

none of the boy Robins needed to wait for the perfect story
Yeah, it really does seem like there is some kind of weird thing going on at DC. And even if it was like, oh, Barbara should never have stopped being Batgirl, or something like that, well, a) Steph was Spoiler and Robin before she was Batgirl, and b) nobody is wishing away the other three current Robins to get Dick back in the little red vest...yet. Oh goodness. I shouldn't say that too loud, or it'll happen. O_O

Actually I guess that's not entirely true, my dad wishes the other Robins would all go away, but he hasn't read Batman comics since prolly the 70s, and he lives in a fantasy land where Dick Grayson is also Peter Pan and never grows up, and Batman is a happy person, and everything is Adam West and nothing hurts. :P

I'm hoping that the library will get those two! And possibly Supergirl.
I am waiting anxiously for Batwoman to come in--I have it on hold. I reread Elegy, I was so excited for it. I got the 0 issue of Batman and Robin at the comics store, and it was really good, but I haven't read the main arc yet. The guy at the store told me that they hadn't completely rebooted away things like Dick raising Damian while Bruce was dead/stuck in time/Grant Morrisoned away/whatever the heck happened to him but the current series was focusing on Bruce and Damian, so idk what exactly is the status quo. What exactly did they do to the origin stories for the Robins? I have heard about it only vaguely.

Batman: Odyssey is in a magical continuity of its own.
Loool, it would have to be, right? :P
