COMICS: Tim Drake Escapes Mr. Oz This November In DETECTIVE COMICS #698
In a story that's an homage to his introduction in the '90s, Tim Drake aka Red Robin will escape Mr. Oz's prison but that apparently doesn't mean he'll immediately be out of imminent danger...
On September 13, Action Comics #987 is going to reveal the identity of Mr. Oz. However, an advance look at the issue's lenticular cover may have spoiled the reveal.
Regardless of who Mr. Oz ultimately turns out to be, the following month will see Tim Drake aka Red Robin escape his confinement and look to make his way back to the DC Universe. The only problem it seems is that he's returned with something else closely nipping at his heels.Will he make it back to Batman and the rest of the Bat-family in time?
Why did Mr. Oz capture Tim in the first place? He's been taking a number of DC characters just before their imminent death so one has to wonder whether he's actually saving them or intending to use them for some nefarious purpose with their allies and enemies all believe they're dead.
