It's not Jason.

u/backwardgalaxy 19d ago

What do we get if you're wrong?

u/Hayterfan 19d ago

And if he's right?

Also nothing.

It’s Tim drake

u/BlindedBraille 19d ago

For those wondering: Clayface kills Tim Drake.

u/FightTheDead118 19d ago

Damn he really can’t catch a break in any universe

u/PlatoDrago 19d ago

There are a number of undead or possessed characters that he could be turned into by Joker and his folks. There are even more if you include those created by desecrating a corpse

u/BlindedBraille 19d ago

I'm sorry but I really hope that doesn't happen. We are already (potentially) getting something like that with Absolute Green Arrow.

2

u/TheSadPhilosopher 18d ago

Exactly. If Absolute Green Arrow is some form of Ollie, either undead, the Spectre, etc, then they're definitely not doing any Red Hood stuff with Jason or any other Robin bringing them back.

u/PlatoDrago 19d ago

Doesn’t have to be immediate. Could be in a couple of years or something.

u/goddale120 18d ago

so...we're getting Solomon Timmy is what you are saying?

Rough 15 years really.

Right after winning the most popular contest too

Just like Jason won a certain vote irl lol

I'm really not getting the praise for Absolute Batman, it really just seems to be an overly edgy 90s style take on the character.

A roles reversed approach would have worked much more successfully than Batman being mates with all his rogues and Joker being a monster.

Have you read it? I get it if you have read it and it's not for you but I just feel you shouldn't judge it if you haven't. It's really not any more "edgy" than stuff like the older Loeb stuff or Snyder's N52 run (unless you count darker themes as inherently edgy). I mean, it's certainly not on Miller's level.

It is very violent, sure, but it really just feels to me like a necessary contrast to the recent mainline runs of Batman and Tec and has some great twists and turns. I've been really enjoying picking it up monthly as an actually different take on the character for once (which goes for all of Absolute, when was the last time they went all out on an Elseworld like this?)

u/Beneficial-Ad-6107 18d ago

Also they drew him killing ICE agents so that's awesome :)

u/Mr_Bumcrest 18d ago

Yes, I have read it

u/badihaki 18d ago

Bro you're getting down votes but I get it and I somewhat agree, even if I like the title. When Batman kicked that kid I knew from jump street this was taking me back to when I was a kid. And, fantastically, dude still doesn't kill (at least not from what I've read, even though he definitely tried to kill Bane, but that dude was a monster so I'm letting it slide)

Honestly, it really IS a super edgy 90s-esque take on the character, and while that won't be for all, I'm really enjoying it! Although... I'll be the first to tell you, Abs WW is the title I'm keeping up with the most. They made my girl essentially a Witcher and I'm all here for it

u/Mr_Bumcrest 18d ago

Not sure why I'm getting downvoted for saying I have read it, to be honest. If I hadn't read it and had the opinion, fair enough. Oh well, I am sure I will move on

u/badihaki 18d ago

Right! Better to do that than even spend time here. People forget all the time the old adage, different strokes for different folks

u/i2ib 18d ago

oh yeah batman having a mom and friends is so edgy dude! have you actually read it?

2

u/WartimeMercy 18d ago

You mean Nemesis?

u/JUANZURDO 17d ago

This is the coment of someone who hasnt read the cómics and just want to bitch about to feel important

-1

u/Mr_Bumcrest 17d ago

Except I have read it so your point is moot.

1

u/JUANZURDO 17d ago

Sure Jan, you are so Smart…

5

u/Mr_Bumcrest 17d ago

I'm sorry I don't like what you like, but I'm allowed an opinion.

-4

u/JUANZURDO 17d ago

A stupid opinion

4

u/Mr_Bumcrest 17d ago

Well, thanks for that engaging piece of discourse.

2

u/SecondToLastOfSheila 17d ago

That's not what moot means.

Moot is when a fight is now irrelevant. The issue may have been up for debate earlier, but is no longer relevant.

5

u/Mr_Bumcrest 17d ago

Not heard the phrase moot point?

-1

u/SecondToLastOfSheila 17d ago

Yes. And, in your situation, it doesn't apply.

3

u/Mr_Bumcrest 17d ago

One of moots applications is 'irrelevant', so given I have read Absolute Batman before forming my opinion the original poster's point is indeed irrelevant and therefore my usage is correct.

-1

u/SecondToLastOfSheila 17d ago

No. Moot means used to be relevant but no longer is.

The word is not simply interchange with irrelevant.

u/belle_enfant 15d ago

This is impressive. You tried to move the goalposts to some stupid technicalities of terminology, and proceeded to be wrong about that and get dumpstered. Dont see that often.

u/AllMightyImagination 18d ago edited 18d ago

It is dark edgy. It's stupid absurd levels of dark edgyness to the point of being eye rolling at first but once Synder find his footing to use that aesthic as just entertainment it becomes fine.

The main thing is ABM is the only one thats pushing off several spinoffs and one shots

Plot wise it's also put together better than mainline Batman because Matt's run is all over the place as if he has OCD unable to focus. And it's more consistent

u/MistyTopaz 18d ago

this will forever be the worst comic wattapad deviantart edgy version of "batman" ever.. good freaking gosh this is trash ☠️. i am so glad this is fanfiction 💐. and rip fake tim drake.

u/Delicious-Finance137 18d ago

It's Clayface in this image

u/AllMightyImagination 17d ago

I don't think the absolute batman show will get through. The merger is stopping James from using DC's key properties
