Red Robin and Robin's Invisible Headphones Are a Genius Evolution of Wonder Woman's Invisible Jet Technology
Juni Ba's The Boy Wonder #3 sees Damian Wayne and Tim Drake, also known as Robin and Red Robin respectively, heading to a gala hosted by Oswald Cobblepot. Damian is not thrilled about being at the gala, but he agrees to go because he plans to investigate the building for connections to a demon abducting Gotham's poor. While in the car, readers are introduced to the Wayne Enterprises' invisible headphones, which are based on "invisible-jet technology." This allows "one to communicate without being noticed."
These new headphones are ideal for the Bat-Family, especially when working on a case that requires them to remain in their civilian identities. While nobody would question Robin or Red Robin wearing a visible earbud, Tim Drake and Damian Wayne, the two youngest sons of billionaire playboy Bruce Wayne, wearing communication devices would undoubtedly raise suspicions. It is surprising that this is the first time such a gadget has appeared in a Bat-Family narrative.
Wonder Woman's Invisible Jet Sneaking Its Way Into a Bat-Family-Centric Series Is a Major Win For Diana Prince Fans
The reference to "invisible-jet technology" is a clear nod to Wonder Woman's iconic Invisible Jet. It is exciting to see Diana Prince subtly referenced in a Bat-Family-centric story. Wonder Woman's invisible jet has been around almost as long as the Amazon Princess herself, debuting in Sensation Comics #1 (January 1942). 2024 has been a big year for the invisible jet, playing a prominent role in Tom King's Wonder Woman run and now being mentioned in Ba's Robin-centric Black Label series.
Wonder Woman's first appearance was in All Star Comics #8 (December 1941). The Invisible Jet has become a very iconic part of Wonder Woman lore, and it is great to see that it has inspired a new gadget for the Bat-Family.
