www.wizarduniverse.com/magazines/wizard/WZ20040204-robin.cfmRead Above Site! OH MY GOOD GOD NO!!!!
I just read an article on the Wizard Website that just absolutely chilled me to the bone!
DC Comics may be retirering Timothy Drake as Robin!!
"There's a new Robin in town and in Wizard #150, you’ll get your first look at who it is. After Tim Drake is forced to hang up the tights, Batman needs a new teen sidekick to help keep the streets of Gotham City clean."
Further more, the new Robin will not be played by a boy any longer but rather a girl?! What the hell?! This is complete and total crap!!! Robin has always been and always should be the 'BOY' Wonder!!
Tim Drake has always been the best Robin. He turned Robin from a mere sidekick and turned him into a Hero in his own right.
No Titans and No Batman.
Just Robin the Teen Wonder!
This can't be right! It just cannot be right!

What about Carrie Kelly? She was a girl and a good soldier according to Batman. I dunno. I like the idea of seeing a girl as Robin, I was never too fond of Tim. Grayson is my favorite Robin. I was actually going to say: "I doin't like Tim, I love Di--", but I don't why I decided to rephrase it...

Carrie Kelly doesn't count as a Real Robin. She was just some minor character brought in for a "What if?" future Storyline that didn't even happen in the core Bat-books. Nothing more.
And sure, Dick was okay as Robin, but he's a much better character as Nightwing. Tim was the one who made Robin a real hero. He was the only of all the Robins to get his own comic series that is still going strong.
Tim Drake is the one true Robin and they can't just toss him aside like... Spoiler!IT'S CRAP! DAMN THEM! KEEP TIM DRAKE ALIVE AND IN COSTUME!!!

Minor Character?? No way. But anyhow, I still think that Dick was the best Robin and I still don't like Tim.
Two things: First, we don't know for sure if that's true. SO STOP WORRYNG! It's like this new "Superman" movie, that they say that Beyonce Knowles will be the Lois Lane. I won't start worrying until I know for sure.
Secondly, if the fans don't like this new Robin, they'll surely bring Tim back, or Tim will became something else. Dick didn't retired after he quit his "night job", did he?
Well, there's actually a third thing: Man, give them a chance. DC is putting together a freaking great team of writers, who knows maybe this new character will be cool too... Don't be so damn anachronic! No offense intended...

And to be honest, I like Spoiler better than him. But that's me. HEY, What if this new Robin chick is Stephany? That would be cool!

>:(Offense accepted!
No, I'm sorry, but I cannot accept a new Robin much less a female one! It just does not fit the group dynamic! They have no reason to replace him. He's been the best Robin they've had!
I don't care who their creative team is, they can't drop Tim Drake as Robin! Just like they can't drop Bruce Wayne as Batman! Or Dick Grayson as Nightwing! Or Clark Kent as Superman! It just isn't right!! KEEP TIM DRAKE ALIVE AND IN THE ROBIN COSTUME!!

They wouldn't DARE!
Stephanie Brown sucks. Spoiler was an... okay character at first, but she just became a pain in the butt after a while. If she becomes the new Robin then that would be it.
I quit!
Good-bye.
No more thank you.
That's it.
The End!

Man, u r whining just like Fab when Ruben lost the in the "American Idol". Not a pretty site. Hey, I'm not against changes. Robin was always a guy maybe is time to change. Maybe he could apologize to Stefany (Yeah, as if...) and she could be the New Robin. I rather wait and see. A lot of people were complaing about Impulse becoming Kid Flash and in the end it was for the best. Who knows?? Maybe one year from now, you'll be here in this same chat babbling about how great "PUT HER NAME HERE IN ONE YEAR" is. Let's see it first.

HELL. NO. This isn't Impulse changing his name. This is getting rid of a great character who completely changed the Gotham Knights. Because of his character Bruce and Dick made up. Because of him, the Gotham Knights came back together.

She can definitely change, man. She can grow up a bit, become a more mature character. This is comics, anything can happen.
Wally West replaced Barry and he's actually doing a much better job. Who would think of that??

Robin, seriously now, I'm sorry but I just love to upset people. You're right. Tim is the best Robin, I think he's really good at what he does.
They shouldn't change that.

Hey, chill man. No need to get violent... Keep in mind that I made Fab cry like a little baby one of these days... I maybe young but I sure am resourceful!! lol. Anyhow, I don't think that they'll do that. Tim has a lot of fans...
