Robin III Part 40: Wonder Woman #61 (January, 1992)


Tim joins with many other heroes (and some villains) in mourning Diana’s passing, ready to end the War of the Gods.

I have this issue.

Superman gives the eulogy at Diana’s memorial service, where everyone gathers to pay their respects and prepare for the upcoming final battle.

Notes of Interest:
1) This is Part 24 of the War of the Gods storyline.

WTF? Moment: Tim makes an appearance on the last page of the book, and doesn’t say a word. Now - the last page is a splash page, with the gathered heroes and villains shouting “For Diana!” I expect Bruce to stay quiet. He’s Batman…but Tim? He’s young, energetic, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with many heavy hitters. Why wouldn’t he be pumped? My guess is that Bruce told him not to. It’s more dramatic and brooding that way.
