  • Right??? And here’s the thing, people out of the loop who don’t read comics might think “Robin” is one character. It’s actually more like a title. There have been 4 different Robin’s. The one most people know is Dick Greyson, who grows up to be nightwing.

    Now if it just happened once, fine. Maybe Dick Greyson showed some amazing promise as a crime fighter. And that idea would even be proven further by the fact that he grows up into an adult who still fights crime.

    Sure.

    But then why did Batman get 3 more Robins??? When they get too old to be Robin, he finds ANOTHER. And ANOTHER! AND THEN HE MAKES HIS OWN SON ROBIN!!!

    Plus he works with the police, so he’s never held accountable??? No no no no no no. Nothing about this adds up as Batman being the good guy. It doesn’t even add up to him being A good guy.



  • God, if only Stephen Colbert would still be hosting the Late Show in 2028. Imagine the Don Jr impressions!

    A lot of people wonder what George Carlin’s material today would be about. I already know what it would be about. Just listen to his old material, and have AI insert the name Trump into his old material about the republicans draining the country for personal gain. See, the thing is, his material isn’t timeless. It’s just that we as a society haven’t fixed our shit, or fixed the core problems that gave him material. If anything we’ve amplified the problems. So if Carlin was complaining back then, I assume his modern day stance would be to take a pistol to the mouth. I can’t imagine complaining about problems you can’t fix, for 30+ years, and keep living to watch it get progressively worse over time.
