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.

That is pretty cheap and disgusting of DC, but I'm less and less surprised. I'll make mine Dark Horse as planned, I guess. Sigh.

Oh, I just treat DC like I would any other fanfiction about my favorite characters. It's rarely much more or much less OOC, but as a story twist that one leaves a lot to be desired.
