Damian Wayne is Becoming DC's Most Powerful Robin of All Time
Spoiler warning for Robin #15
Despite the long line of former Batman sidekicks behind him, Damian Wayne is on track to become the most powerful Robin of them all.

Now, after the events of Shadow War—in which readers saw the death of Ra's al Ghul and the eventual surrendering of Talia al Ghul—Damian has returned to Lazarus Island with his friend Connor Hawke to investigate the Lazarus Pits and the ominous Devil Nezha.
