Damian wanted to beat up Tim for it, not kill him
Changed line(s) 3 (click to see context) from:
* InformedWrongness: Tim, for including Damian on his "hit list" in the eponymous story arc. Said "hit list" is actually a list of superheroes who could be very dangerous if they turn bad – which is an entirely accurate assessment for a former child assassin with a known history of murder and sadism – with countermeasures to use against them. Other superheroes on the list include Franchise/{{Superman}}, Franchise/WonderWoman, [[Franchise/GreenLantern Hal Jordan]], ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}, ComicBook/TheAtom and even [[ComicBook/{{Shazam}} Captain Marvel]], which pretty clearly shows it's not meant as a judgment of Damian as a bad seed. And yet we're supposed to sympathise with Damian when he whines "It isn't ''fair''" about being included, even though it was never meant for his eyes (he only saw it after spending six hours hacking into Tim's files) and his response to seeing it was to attempt to murder Tim ''again'' by cutting his grapple line.

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: At the end of Chris Yost's Red Robin run, Tim manages to stop Ras' plan to use Hush, who was masquerading as the missing Bruce Wayne at the time, to claim Bruce's company. He went to Wayne Tower to confront him directly as a distraction for Lucius Fox to stop Hush. After barely managing to survive the encounter Tim reveals he deceived Ra's and gets thrown out the window with Dick saving his life. Afterward when Dick asks how did Tim knew he was going to save him, Tim simply responds that as his brother, Dick was always going to be there for him. However, some fans have noted that Tim had the chance earlier to tell Dick he would go after Ra's by himself but never did. It wouldn't make sense for Tim, who in this series grew more cold and methodical, to leave such an important detail of his plan to chance. This, along with his acknowledgment during the fight that he could die and his calm demeanor while falling to his death, have made some speculate that Tim went to confront Ra's fully expecting and willing to die and lied to Dick to spare his brother the concern.
* BrokenBase: Tim's Red Robin look: "Condom Head" vs. "Swan Queen". Some feel the condom head look works because it takes inspiration from Batman and is just more practical, which reflects Tim's character. The swan queen look is liked for having some practicality in the cape, though the previous cape was an armored easily detachable glider cape already. While nobody will say either is an amazing costume design, which one is better is up in the air.
* {{Narm}}: The name "Red Robin". Yes, it's a ''ComicBook/KingdomCome'' ShoutOut... but it's also the name of a burger restaurant chain with a memorable ad campaign ("Reeeed Rooobin... yum!").
* WTHCostumingDepartment: Tim Drake's two Red Robin costumes get this reaction from different segments of the fandom: the Pre-Flashpoint one has a cowl that sometimes gets called "Condom Head" and the overall look is reminiscent of older but sometimes forgotten character Doctor Midnight, but without anything to break up the black (Midnight had a crescent moon and green goggles). The New 52 version, meanwhile, is often seen as too busy, highly derivative, and is sometimes called the "Swan Princess" look. The former costume also extends to Dick Grayson and Jason Todd, given they both wore it, too (albeit in Dick's case, in the {{Elseworlds}} story ‘’Comicbook/KingdomCome’').
