Tim Drake: Robin, Red Robin Appreciation 2019

I like it. Simple and elegant.

That said, I doubt it's his final look. They are traveling through the multiverse. Not really optimal time to build a new suit on a new identity. Likely his old suit with some minor alterations.

Well, Bendis said in twitter that Tim will have a new suit in Young Justice #7 (also, a new name/identity created by Bart).

I’d still love to see a Red Robin, Red Hood, and Red Arrow panel at least.

Any particular reason why?

[TheRay]

Just to be clear. I don’t mean Arsenal, I mean Red Arrow.

Just because all of them have the “Red” name. Nothing fancy.

I believe I've mentioned in here that I am slowly working my through the Robin solo-run, as well as drifting off to the eventual crossover/events that seems to happen pretty frequently in the Bat-books. Anyhow, Comixology has a pretty sweet deal right now so I picked up another 10 or so issues, as well as the Knightfall books (since I actually did not read that in full when those Robin issues came up).
So at the moment I have up to issue 125, which means I am getting somewhat close to the end of this run.

Good for you. I think I stopped at about #113. Here's a fun bit - it was actually the character of Spoiler who got me interested in DC, so aside from her intro in 'Tec, Tim's Robin series was the first substantive amount of DC comic I ever read (in backissues I started reading in 2014 or 2015).

You are correct about the crossovers of the '90s - there were tons of them.

So, has there been a particular storyline or supporting character you've liked? Did you like his public school or private school days more?

I have the whole thing, it wasn't as good when Chuck left, but still enjoyable.

King said TD will be in Batman 76. No doubt more time to ruin the character

I know we are at peak ‘Tom King is the devil’ but when has he had time to ruin Tim’s character specifically? Bruce punching him was a reflection on Bruce’s character, not Tim’s. And otherwise he hasn’t been in the run.

Wasn't Tim one of the hanged Bat-Kid during I am Bane ?

Or was he still "dead" by then ?

Then again, after the debacle of HiC and whatever his Batman run has devolved into, I too would feel terribly worried for any character I like appearing in his books.

Tim would honestly be far better in just YJ for as long as King is on Batman's duty.

Yes, he was dead at the time.

I’ve always found King’s Robin characterization to be fine, in general. Except that Jason seems a bit too well-adjusted and relaxed around the Family.
