That’s a Lot of Robins
While DC’s new 52 gets all the attention, Comics Alliance has pointed out that this Wednesday’s issue of Batman: Brave and the Bold (#13) — yep, the one based on the cartoon — features something truly new: All the Robins.

?All of ’em. At once. Trying to save Batman. Yes, that’s Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake, Stephanie Brown, Damian Wayne, and even Carrie Kelley from Dark Knight Returns.
…
...that’s fucking awesome. Comics Alliance has a larger preview if you want it, and I would imagine you do. Thanks to SlyDante for the tip. I admit, I have to agree with him — I’d much rather DC have just rebooted into the Brave and the Bold universe.

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.

Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
