Status Updates From Red Robin, Vol. 3: The Hit ...

The last page of issue #17 promising "more girl problems" lol sorry i'm outta here

SPOILER

Tim buying Crime Alley's theater to live in.... are you shitting me

Having stopped reading Red Robin months ago doesn't help, i still am gen confused abt Batman lol, wasn't he supposed to be dead earlier in the series ? I forgot if or how this issue has been solved...

I'm happy to see Batman hugging Tim though
And Cassandra Cain apparition !!

SPOILER

And now Lynx and him are kissing ?? With Lynx being drawn in such a male-gazy way ?? After he's rescued her ?
I'm only pursuing my reading bc i dont want to leave a Red Robin issue dnf but....

Tim thinking abt Lynx like "My heart tells me i don't need a lifelong Catwoman on my hands...", what kind of bs is that ! That's NO WAY to talk about a skilled supertrained secret agent
It honestly reeks of misogy, AND is insulting to Catwoman's character

I deeply hope i misread this, but until i'm proven wrong this line is simply infuriating

I honest to god forgot I was reading this oops

“Even the best laid plans don’t always work out” thank you for the reminder Tim 🕯️

Tim asking Tam if she “really eats that much?” when she’s having a burger and fries makes my eye twitch, especially when she compliments him on his legs right after

What a corny name Ulysses Armstrong is… and to think he thinks of himself as Red Robin’s personal Joker

Don’t know Vicky Vale was actually an investigative reporter, better late than never

Yk, the way the writers keep narrating that each girl character is beautiful or make them feel desire (through Red Robin) ews me ; I still struggle to accept that’s how some men look at the women around them

Damian bleeding the need to be accepted 😔

Okay, the new writer feels much more optimistic and less egotistical ; i'm hopeful about his writing for tim
I might be liking the drawings better too
Waiting to see if Damian is just as savage as in the previous volumes
