Today in Comics History, July 15, 1982: It doesn't actually have a time attached to it, but we've invested so much in this story, I just wanted to let you know Batman and Robin are A-OK

I thought that page sounded familiar and yeah, Barr used basically that exact same bit at the end of Detective Comics #570 in 1987. Robin pointing out he lost a lady he liked (Catwoman that time), but he saved a family and that's something. Then Batman says, "That's everything" and they swing off into the night.
I get writers are going to have tics or pet phrases, but is it plagiarizing if you're copying yourself?
Hey, Bully: Wrong Robin. Jason Todd hadn't even appeared yet.
Whoops! I changed a tag and forgot it would change it across the blog!
