June 1978. Until the 1980s, the Batman comics generally presumed that as an adult, Dick Grayson would either eventually succeed Bruce Wayne as Batman or remain Robin indefinitely; the idea that he might permanently adopt a third identity hadn't yet been suggested. This Imaginary Story, set maybe 20 years in the future, shows the older Robin of Earth-1 having adopted the Neal Adams-designed costume first seen in JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #92 back in 1971, which had already been adopted by the Earth-2 Robin in 1976.
#comics#batman#dick giordano#david vern#bruce wayne#robin#dick grayson#this story (by david vern as “david v. reed”) is an okay mystery adventure#that does little to pay off the idea of an aging bruce wayne#contemplating retirement#but it has really great art by walt simonson and dick giordano#and a lots of bits of “living in the future” business#that are fun#it does indicate that dick eventually married babs#and says bruce is involved with some unidentified woman#who is NOT selina kyle#(and probably not talia either)
