As Red Robin, what was everyone's preference, cowl or no cowl? Personally I was for the cowl

The Marcus To redesign of the Red Robin costume is still his best look imo.

Yep. To made it look good. Never got the condom head complaint as other heroes wear a similar head shaped mask like Spidey, Cyclops, Iron Fist, etc

I’ve always thought the cowl was the best idea for Red Robin, with a second place for the “cheeked” mask from the Unternet, and a distant third for any version of the classic domino mask.

The domino mask works for Robin, but keeping it for either Red Robin or Drake just makes him look like a pallets swap of Nightwing - particularly with the wings or lack of any cape or wings.

A dynamically different profile makes it easier to line up all the Robin and identify which is which immediately.

I prefer open head gear leaving his hair visible, but I did like the Red Robin look. As we've all said time and time again, Tim just needs a complete overhaul from costume to alter ego by someone who is good at design and can put some thought into his name and style.

Absolutely agree. It's time for a shift

I mean his Robin and Red Robin Designs are (exception of the "Swan Queen" design) pretty good.
Just the Drake one was absolutely horrible.

Something that would fit for Tim now is doing something akin to his status in RR as a majority shareholder of Wayne Enterprises. You could have him be trying to re-start/regain the company on his own terms and dealing corporate sabotage and slimeballs from corrupt business dudes.

So what like repeating Damian's storyline during the time when Bruce was thought dead and WE was in a Crisis? but expanded into a longer more detailed serial format? [like an extended edition]

Something like that would only work as a mini so not exactly a next step or a direction.

Plus i don't think Tim knows anything about corporate management or has any experience with multinational accounting/fraud/corporate espionage or anything about start-ups.

I know one of the kids other than Damian at some point has worked [as in actual working] for WE in older stories but i'm sure that was Dick not Tim.

He would need to go back to school to learn that.

Tim going to business school could be a new direction.

Well...it is a new direction for Tim...and it fits him.

I have heard worse ideas.

...but...I do not see a comic titled 'The Corporate Adventures of Tim Drake'. Tim Drake: Robin, Red Robin, Appreciation 2024 (11)

No he was doing charity stuff. At least we only saw him doing charity stuff nothing corporate or business related.
He was a figure head not the CeO. The only characters we saw doing any corporate stuff or who were said to be doing any management related anything were Lucius in RR and Damian in the other Batman titles.

---- Character doing corporate stuff sounds like it'd sell even less than TDR but the story idea is lifted straight from tumblr so it might be a way to tapp into that crowd.

Tim Drake Robin tried to tap into the tumblr crowd and it massively flopped.....so if my idea tap into the tumblr crowd then drop it

Best move for Tim realistically I think would be to move out of Gotham again like during Bendis' Young Justice, maybe join a new team and try and find himself as Dick did with the Titans and Jason with the Outlaws. Doesn't even need to be with his old comrades from those teams necessarily. Then maybe we can get him to move out of being Robin or Red Robin and get a cool new moniker.

That's kind of the same thing for Bruce.
