So cute! I love this series!
This was an interesting issue in that we see how Damian and Jon react to the possibility of a future where they both have sons. A future where Damian remained Robin and trained a Robin army and Superboy because Superman (i think) and had a baby.
What's really interesting is that, once again, we come face to face with how differently each Robin views being Robin. With Detective Comics doing so much to talk about who would carry on Bruce's legacy, it's nice to see that Damian would want to stay Robin. To him, it's not a "training wheels" position: it's a necessary one. Robin doesn't just exist to help Batman, Robin, as a title, exists to help people find purpose. Being Robin taught Damian how to be more than his mother and grandfather wanted him to be. He learned how to be a good person and to save lives, not take them. So, the idea of him raising a son as a Robin and creating a Robin army is very interesting.
So, this series is still great. I'm excited for the next issue!
