Whenever Batman is shown in the Batcave(BTW,how far ahead in the future is JL?) he always seems alone. What happened to Batgirl and Robin? I'm not saying they should be part of the stories,since this is JL,but they can at least make cameo appearances. Does anyone else agree? :)

The general consensus is that they have enough characters to deal with, without worrying about Nightwing, Robin, Batgirl, Alfred, etc. But a quick mention or cameo would be cool.

I think it would only further confuse the whole continuity issue. Batgirl and Robin should be left out if they want to avoid constant questions. Lois, though, seriously needs to make an appearance or something!

I'd like to see a cameo by at least Nightwing, or even Alfred standing in the background of the cave.... see Justice League #3...

I would really like to see some of them appear. They wouldn't even have to say anything. Just to see them on the screen when Batman gets a call would be good enough for me.

At least for now. ;)

well, to show the batcrew would probably invalidate BB (which I realize some of you ppl would like) So I think they're avoiding it..

Timm has said this takes place before ROTJ, even though I hate big arguments about continuity, otherwise The Joker would not be in the Injustice Gang. So that means Tim is still around as Robin.
