[HPFGU-OTChatter] Re: Music preferences in the HP world (if they listened to Muggle music)

[Kathryn]

I wish DC and Marvel would stop giving their superheroes new identities, it
gets so damn confusing sometimes.

And thanks for the Robin stuff, I was a big fan of Dick Grayson but I haven
t read much about the other two. My comics reading tends to be by way of
compilation books rather than the monthly comics because I am far too
disorganized to cope. I have got 'The Death of Robin' and whichever book it
is that has Tim earning his Robin outfit after Bats told him he wasn't ready
for it, but nameswise I get Jason and tim confused.

I get the feeling your the type of fan who's main reaction to the X-Men film
was to complain about them making Bobby drake a kid. And I probably shouldn
t even mention George Clooney and Batman in the same breath (actually I
shouldn't do that anyway because I might end up ranting <g>)

Kathryn,

Tempest was originally the character Aqualad, aka Prince Garth of the 
Idyllists. A while back (6 years ago for us, 2 years ago DC Universe 
Time), he discovered, thanks to Aquaman's father, that he had been 
lied to most of his life. His purple eyes were not a sign of 
weakness; rather, they were a sign of mysticism. So, he was taken 
into another dimension, where he was trained in the ways of the 
supernatural. While only 6 months went by in our world, nearly 3 1/2 
years went by for him. When he returned, he had the scars, various 
supernatural powers, and "hydrokinetic" abilities.

And by the way, the Robins are as follows: 

1). Dick Grayson is now Nightwing, and lives in Bludhaven (Gotham's 
evil twin).
2). Jason Todd was Robin for a while, and got slaughtered by the 
Joker.
3). Tim Drake is currently Robin.

And let's not forget Carrie Kelly, the Robin from the classic Frank 
Miller mini-series _The Dark Knight Returns_.

Anyway, I hope this helps you out some.

Jack
