Lines: 28 From: Mike CiaraldiA recent posting conjectured that Batman might be killed off in CRISIS, but wondered about the merchandising problems. What if Bruce Wayne dies and Dick Grayson, alienated from the Teen Titans by Kori'andr's marriage to someone else, become the new Batman? I realize that the analogous thing has been proposed for The Flash, namely that Wally West would take over. Perhaps that will be the outcome of the Kid Flash mini-series that Harlan Ellison is supposed to be writing. One final Batman/Robin note: In recent Detective and Batman issues, Robin has been working closely with Harvey Bullock. In the latest issue, Bullock starts pumping Robin for info about himself and how long he has been with the Batman, and wonders about why Robin seems to be smaller and younger than he used to be. Looks like Doug Moench is going to clear up the question of why no one has noticed the change in Robins. Mike Ciaraldi seismo!rochester!ciaraldi
