You know I get the feeling that this series was originally suppoused to star Jason as Red Robin since half the stuff Tim is doing seems to be more fitting for Jason. However, Didio, as usual, changed his decision at the last moment and many of the plot lines used for Jason was applied to Tim instead. JMHO. I think it would have been a much better idea for Tim to retire for a while as Robin (the boy has gone through a lot these past few years) and give him a 'cooling off' time with the Teen Titans with Kon, Bart, Cass, Spoiler and others. Make him some kind of 'Oracle' figure for the Teen Titans. Then later have him return to Gotham to run Wayne Industries as a young business partner with Lucius.
