All New Robin Volume 2 #28
Note: for a better understanding of Damian Wayne in the DCSG I suggest you go read Supremedalekdunn’s Batman: Knight of Gotham #48-59 (this issue will be a synthesized version of KoG #59 from Robin’s perspective). Or if you just want to read something amazing, because that entire volume is really something special.
Tim noticed that the Batcave felt colder than usual. Perhaps it was the fact that Bruce Wayne’s child, whom he did not know he had, was occupying the containment cell. Or perhaps, it was the way Bruce said,
“Ra’s will come for the boy.” Alfred had placed Damian Wayne’s Crimson Knight suit inside of a display case, which he, Tim, and Bruce now stared at.
“We can beat him Bruce. We might be outnumbered. We might even be outgunned. But when has that ever stopped us?” Tim was reaching. In truth, the League of Assassins had always terrified him. Sparring with Bruce was a challenge enough, but to fight dozens of his former peers always sounded like a challenge too great for himself. Not to mention fighting the Demon’s Head himself, Ra’s al Ghul.
“It hasn’t.” Alfred replied on Bruce’s behalf, as the latter stared deeply into the eyes of the Crimson Knight suit.
“We’ll do it how we always do Bruce. Together.” Tim’s words seemed to snap Bruce out of his trance, as the Batman replied,
“Together.”

Bruce left the cave in the resulting minutes, leaving his cowl on a vacant terminal. Tim approached the terminal and slumped against it, sliding to the ground where he sat looking around the enormous cave surrounding him. He looked around the cave he had called home for the past several years before he heard a voice in his ear,
“Tim?” Panicking, Tim realized that he had left his earpiece in.
“Hey Steph.” He responded.
“What’s going on?” Thinking of which way to best sum up the story of Damian, Tim sarcastically answered,
“An insane, drugged-up version of Batman attacked our city and now an ancient order of ninjas are coming to destroy everything.”
“The League of Assassins?” Stephanie asked on the other line.
“How’d you know-?”
“Love conspiracies. Everyone’s got a hobby, right? I mean, I’ve got this new one now, and you’ve had yours for a while…” Stephanie went silent, then asked, “So how bad is it? I mean, there’ve only been rumors…”
“Think one hundred Batmans killing people and burning down buildings.”
“So, not that bad.” Stephanie’s sarcasm prompted a laugh from Tim who said,
“I’m glad you’re back Steph.” While Stephanie simply replied,
“Glad to be back.”
