Batman Inc. Kills Off Robin
DC Comics series has done away with the boy wonder’s current incarnation as crime fighter’s 10-year-old son. I can’t get over the fact that Robin morphed into a 10-year-old, let alone his death. I mean, the whole joke of the franchise, as “SNL” mercilessly reminded us, was that Batman and Robin were gay, so I don’t see how making Robin a boy removed the overtone. If anything, it just replaced homosexuality with pederasty.
