    Default Robin costume evolution

    Discuss all the "Robin" costumes, legacy, evolution, what works, doesn't, and any ideas of your own.

    Today's Comic Legends highlights some of the Robin costume fan-submissions (including Norm Breyfogle’s) https://www.cbr.com/robin-batman-family-norm-breyfogle/



    They also highlight Drake's new suit


    Although wasn't that one designed by Neal Adams for movie Dick Grayson?

    This one is iconic, it's the one who make me fell in love with the character.
    And I'm really sad they change it now in flashback scene of young Dick.



    Till Damian arrival, Robin has always been my favoite character.
    And this one is the definitive Robin costume, no one can beat it!

    The New 52 Robin suit used for Dick Grayson is awful.

    Still the best in my opinion. A nice instantly recognizable throwback to the OG, but embracing modern design. Functional and sleek and not cumbersome.
    Pulls: Batman, Detective Comics, SiKtC, Catwoman, Nightwing, Titans, Godzilla, Wonder Woman, Batman & Robin, Brave and the Bold, No/One, Kill your Darlings, and Deviant.
    My runs: Batman #230-, and Detective #420-

    Wasn't that the one used in Batman the Animated series, just without the R being so stylized?

    Yeah, most modern takes on the Robin costume take a lot of influence from Tim's suit.

    Is the "Tim suit", the same as the 1990 Neal Adams movie concept suit?

    The best is always reserved for Tim Drake.

    Indeed; a total disgrace to have this iconic costume retconned. Shame on you, DC.

    Of course, Batman cant afford to make the same mistakes a third time.

    Yeah.It was designed for Dick.
    It's funny how fans always complain about Dick getting Tim's suit in other media like TT, TT Go and now Titans. He's just wearing his suit.

    The "Tim Suit" is really "Dick suit".
