Well another Robin dies on Wednesday.  Seriously it's not a good gig to be Batman's sidekick.  They always end up dying.

Robin the Boy Wonder, Batman's aide-de-camp, will be killed battling a brutal enemy in a comic book published Wednesday.

It is like being the number 2 guy in the Taliban or Al Qaeda.  One of them gets drone poisoning on a regular basis or
The Boy Wonder is like a drummer for Spinal Tap.

IN the original Batman, didn't Robin wear a red shirt?

During filming of Airplane, Leslie Nielsen used a whoopee cushion to keep the cast off-balance. Hays said that Nielsen "played that thing like a maestro"

He also had shoes that Carrie Bradshaw would kill for.

Why Robin instead of Aquaman...why? There I said it.

DC wanted to kill a character that people actually care about.

I'm just waiting for the Agenda 52 defense to put up.

They rebooted the entire DC universe and still couldn't make Aquaman cool.

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Yeah but heroes don't tend to stay dead in the DC Universe. Jason Todd killed by the Joker but resurrected, Superman killed by Doomsday but resurrected, Superboy killed by Superboy but resurrected...you get the idea. Damian will be back eventually.

So you're saying it wouldn't do any good to kill Aquaman

LMAO at this thread. Poor Robin can't get any respect even when dead or compared to Aquaman.  8)

I had to google the name.

do you know how I know youre gay?
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.
