I used to read Robin regularly, and with the news of this new chick stepping into the mantle, I decided to give it another go. And I have to admit, I love it. But anyone who knows me or who's read a few of my posts knows I love to see the wheel reinvented and this was a welcome change. Tim's mindset at being Robin is totally different than that of Stephanie, and to witness the transition of of someone going from wannabe to Wonder is a beautiful thing.
Not only are readers asked to question Batman's reasons for taking Tim's girlfriend in as the new Robin, but they also have to question whether or not she's up to the task. Since I've heard the news I've tried to get my hands on every appeance of this new Robin, from her own issues, to her guest appearance in Batgirl, to her cameo in Teen Titans. While I know there are plenty of people out there who hate the idea, I still love it and can't wait for more.
