After all, it’s likely the first thing you’ll see when you enter your local comic book store or go to any comics news site. It’s also, literally, the first thing you see (as a pop-up that you can’t avoid getting) if you visit the DC Comics website today.So the cat’s well and truly out of the bag: Damian Wayne, the current Robin, is dead, having died fighting a hulking clone of himself clad in armor, carrying a giant sword and backed up by a small army of snipers.Of course, there’s an ongoing, monthly series called Batman and Robin, and the Robin intellectual property is a valuable one for DC Comics in general, so most fans don’t expect it will be long before Batman fills those pixie boots again.
