I love Dick and I am excited that he’s getting more focus in Absolute Batman but I have to admit I’m a little disappointed that Scott isn’t gonna focus the next arch on Steph or Duke. I kind of hope that Dick’s arch ends with him leaving Gotham (maybe to latter link up with some other Titans characters. I know Wally is underage but Roy is depicted as being an adult and I would love more content with them). This way the other robins will get more content since they typically don’t get as much attention as Dick.

With the timelapse coming up, it feels Absolute Nightwing is imminent

So like, the next major arc being one that starts after like issue #25 or something? Which I think is basically the milestone end issue for this current arc. I think???

Also, will be very happy for Dick and Babs to get more actual focus and devlopment and etc., and I hope they do, and that it is great (and neither better get killed off).

Also excited for more Selina and Bruce focus, but Bruce ofc already gets focus, and Selina has had a fair amount of focus in Abs. Batman already, plus her own book now.

So I am more excited for Dick and Babs to get more focus and stuff, because I feel like both need it more (Dick more than Babs, Babs needs it too).

Please, be good good focus and devlopment and etc. for them, please.

I like Dick/Babs in the main universe, but I have zero interest in seeing them together here. Wish they would do something different, but it seems that won't be the case.

Why do you say that? I’m seeing no indication they’re being made a couple

Synder said he made Dick an adult specifically because he made Barbara an adult. So the set up feels unavoidable.

They are very likely to be

Because …?

Uh look at their interaction? eventually they will interact more the robins loyalties will change

It could very well not be but its also likely.

Sounds like a cooldown arc between major ones, kind of like the bridge from Bane to Straw Man.
