First Look at Robin’s Return!
By Skip Harvey
If you weren’t aware, Damian Wayne -the latest Robin- was killed in a story arc not too long ago. Since Damian is also an al Ghul it was pretty obvious he wasn’t going to stay dead for long.
Now, DC has debuted a first-look preview of the triumphant return of Robin…with a twist.
"A little less than two years after being killed in battle against an adult clone version of himself (Aren’t superhero comics fun?), Damian Wayne has returned to the DC Universe to reclaim his position by Batman’s side. Still, Bruce Wayne’s son isn’t the same character as before. Damian’s attitude is as aggressive as ever, but his cosmically powered resurrection had some significant side effects, granting him new superpowers that make him the Bat-family’s most powerful member. As of now, it’s been revealed that Damian has invulnerability and super-strength, and this preview of next week’s Batman & Robin #38 reveals how his new abilities impact his work as Robin."
Here are a few sneak peaks at Batman and Robin #38!

We’ll have to see where this leads and if Robin keeps his apparent new powers. Things may be different for the Boy Wonder moving forward (as if being Batman’s son wasn’t a weird enough twist).
