Identity of New Robin Revealed
Warning: This post will spoil the identity of the new Robin, you have been warned!
So it looks like DC Comics has revealed who the new Robin will be following the end of the Robin Rises comic arc. I found this article about the reveal from IGN:

"It turns out that Damian Wayne will be returning to life by the end of Robin Rises and taking up his old job. This isn’t necessarily the most surprising outcome for anyone who has been reading the series. Robin Rises has revolved around Batman using any and all means at his disposal to resurrect his dead son (who was killed last year in the pages of Batman Incorporated), including teaming up with Ra’s al Ghul and traveling to Apokolips. But before now, DC would only confirm that there would be a new Robin by the end of Robin Rises, not which Robin that might be. Other possible candidates included Harper Row, Carrie Kelly, and Stephanie Brown (all of whom have been recurring players in various Batman comics since Damian’s death)."

I have to say this is not exactly what I was expecting when I found this article on IGN, for one thing I thought it was already common knowledge that Damian was coming back from the dead, hence the name Robin Rises, for the series. So when I saw this article on IGN I assumed they were talking about an actual new Robin, not just Damian taking back his old position.
