Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Dr. Gym'll's Cultural Rarities Oh Yeah, That Forum: The Titans Who is Talon?

Is there any chance he's Jason Todd? I know he's appearing in Nightwinmg but he could be Talon during the OYGap. Ive heard talk of him being Batwomans sidekick but that'd be sucky.

Could be interesting but the picture makes him look a bit young to be Jason.

Jason's only supposed to be 19 though. some 19 year olds look pretty young? meh...the all the art on that issue was pretty bleh. Im hoping he'll appear older when we finally see him.

Oh gah...more Talon speculation.

At least people here aren't claiming he's Damien. People on the DC boards were shouting that at the rooftops...never mind the fact that it makes no sense and their ages are most definitely NOT congruent.

Anyway.

I doubt it's Jason. I think it will just be a new character, and don't understand why everyone's so fascinated with him.

speculation is speculation. its fun. (and Im working on a Who's Who in Titans so I just thought...you know...Id bring it up.)

Damien who?

Batman's son with Talia (restored into continuity in a recent Batman arc).

Speculation is a cornerstone of message boards Joe-Boy. Keep up the good work.

So the son of the Daughter of the Demon is named Damien? Isn't that special? :rolleyes:

So how old is this Damien kid supposed to be?

Dunno. I'm not sure if they ever say it. I can't find my Batman issues at the moment to check. He's old enough to kill the Spook, beat up Robin and Alfred.

I'd guess 12 or younger.

I would've guessed about ten, but it's hard to say.

Well Son of a Demon was published in 87'...so if we figure that two years real time equals 1 year DC time...he'd be 10 and a half/eleven. about the Age they're portraying him.
oooh maybe Talon is the Protector lol
no that'd be even stupider then the Emerald Eye's new origin.

Some hints about Talon in issue 32 of Fifty Two.

Earth 2 Jason Todd? <span class="spoiler_containter"><span class="spoiler_wording">Click Here For A Spoiler</span><span class="spoiler_text">Earth-Two : In an interview for the Infinite Crisis hardcover, Jeanine Schaefer states that Geoff Johns' orignal intention was for the Red Hood to be the Jason Todd of Earth-Two. The following is in quote by Jeanine: Well, Geoff's idea was to have Red Hood be the Jason Todd of Earth-Two. So he'd be this kid, who wanted to be Batman's sidekick. He sneaks into the Batcave, and the first thing he sees as he boots up the bat-computers is... Batman murdered. And so he uses Bruce's stuff, training himself to take over for him. I think there was even talk of his possibly being Deathstroke's Robin</span></span>
I guess that cuts out the Batwoman angle as presumably she's from Earth 1 (at least the latest incarnation. Its plausible that they'll retcon the Kathy Kane version as a denison of Earth 2. If that means we'll get back the Betty Kane version of Bat-Girl Ill be a happy boy)

I've heard speculation that he's Owl Man's 'Robin' as well.

Here's an even wilder thought.

What if he turns out to be the Earth 2 Dick Grayson? That could explain why Nightwing keeps hearing that he wasn't supposed to survive Infinit Crisis.
