Latest Action Comics (Spoilers for Nightwing's identity)

[mithen]

Character A is a snarky, dark-haired teen with tactile telekenesis.
Character B is a sweet-tempered, light-haired pre-teen without tactile telekenesis.
Character C is a masked, snarky, dark-haired teenager with tactile telekenesis.

Would you lay odds on Character C being A or B under the mask?

Well, DC sez: "It's Character B! He's been randomly aged, his hair has turned black, and he's developed a snarky temperament and tactile telekenesis! Aren't you surprised?"

Oh DC, "surprised" doesn't even begin to cover my reaction.

Wait. What? I second skund's motion of reading Marvel Adventures. *buries nose in Marvel Adventures: The Avengers #1, and plots buying #2* Also, I have no idea who A, B, and C are in context, as I am not up to date with that particular branch of canon right now, but that is very WTF of them. Also, if I see a dark-haired teen with tactile telekinesis in my DC, I want it to be Kon-El, end of story. *ships Kon/Tim, and just plain likes Kon as a character*

Oh. I just read some more details on the spoilers in question on noscans_daily. I know who A and B are. *loves the public library's large selection of comics and scans_daily (R.I.P.)* C is the one from what I'm not caught up on. And now it makes even less sense in context. Character A should be C, although I have no problem with B being in canon - just not with soap-opera aging and those sorts of related plot holes. *is now even more confused* *buries self in MA:A comic and clexy Smallvile fanfic to save sanity*
