Was robin a mistake?

Was robin a mistake?

Yes.

the middle two are

>damianfags

>most acclaimed Batman movies are the ones without Robin
>most acclaimed Batman comics are the ones without Robin
>best selling Batman runs are the onew with little to no batfamily and Robin like Snyder's run
>was Robin a mistake

You tell me.

objectively correct

...

>jasonfags

>thinking that casualfags read grant morrison

Maybe he was a mistake on Bruce's side but Talia wanted him.

>incorporating collars onto the capes

For what purpose? For that dressier look when beating up criminals? In case you need to wear a tie?

> TDKR
> no Robin

>Grant Morrison
>most acclaimed anything

You wish

>he doesn't know about Batman & Robin

But the Batman movie, Under The red Hood, entirely revolves around Robin.
Even if said Robin is shit outside of that story
TDKR has Carrie Kelly
Duke was "Robin" during Snyders run tho

>if I keep spamming about Dickbats people will believe it actually matters!

go away johnsfag

Best =/= Most acclaimed, sadly

>>he doesn't know about Batman

It revolves around how stupid the idea of a kid sidekick is
Carrie was there to be a parody of Robin, that's why she is a girl instead of homoerotic bait
Duke was never a Robin

>I only read Morrison!

Why is Sup Forums so full of casual readers?

>Batman '66
>Dark Knight Returns
>Dark Victory
>Grant Morrison's run
>Scott Snyder's only good stories (Black Mirror, Court of Owls) heavily involve Dick

Wow, visually, Robin is a complete wreck outside of Tim and Damian

Now thats an insult I didn't expect to see in here.
Maybe Snyderfag or Millerfag

It doesn't. Like at all, in fact it puts Robin on a pedestal several times with both Jason and Dick
Got a source bud or you just gonna keep projecting?
That's why I said "Robin", pic related

We almost never see Jason and Dick as robin anymore,so it doesn't really matters.

Most casuals I know can't get into Morrison.

Wow, you were able to name 5 really questionable things between almost 80 years of Batman's history. This totally proves Robin is a good concept and not just a bad idea like all the other sidekicks who got dropped long ago.

Everything about Jason is built around the stupidity of Robin existing.

Damien should have stayed dead.

And everything about Dick is built around the greatness of Robin existing

I'd rather not have Duke as another Robin thank you.

Change this Jason with Young Justice's design and those would be GOAT

Damian is the worst, should've stopped at Tim

>And everything about Dick is built around the greatness of Robin existing

if anything is built around cheap fanservice and being a generic hero out of some novel for women

Robin is such a worthless title that it doesn't matter who he actually is, that's why we had 4 look alike, girls and other stuff and people barely remember them

Batman should work alone.

Except when he works with Alfred.

And Gordon.

Which is all the time.

as well as an literal army of sidekicks

Ah, that beautiful unvarnished period where Robin wasn't ruining Batman. All eleven months of it.

>really questionable things
>the most famous version of Batman in media for over forty years
>the most acclaimed and influential Batman story of all time
>a very solid story
>one of the most ambitious Batman stories in the mythos
>a run you yourself acknowledged as popular

Keep pullin' up those goalposts, user.

Damian, in one year, has already done the "Robin coming back to life" shtick far better than Jason has done in the past 10 years

>>the most famous version of Batman in media for over forty years
a comedy series where everything is played as a joke, so no wonder robin works there
it will work in the new Lego Batman movie too because is not serious at all
>>the most acclaimed and influential Batman story of all time
not because of Robin
>>a very solid story
you mean the weak sequel to a better story
>>one of the most ambitious Batman stories in the mythos
which means nothing since we were talking about popular acclaim
>>a run you yourself acknowledged as popular
which had pretty much no Robin in it outside of some cameos

reading comprehension, what does it mean

>those things are acclaimed despite having robin in it, therefore it means robin is a good idea

you can remove robin from these things and they would still work
except for Morrison's run because it was built on a gimmick (and no wonder it totally got btfo by Snyder's run when it started, both in sales and critical acclaim)

If Robin was a chick from the beginning I think people wouldn't have a problem with Batman having a sidekick

>Carrie was there to be a parody of Robin, that's why she is a girl instead of homoerotic bait
You're so full of bullshit it's brimming out of your fingernails and onto your keyboard. There's an element of dark humor throughout TDKR, but there's nothing parodic about Robin.

no

I want to have sex with all of them.

/thread

>Snyder
>not the worst batman writer of all time

Morrisonfags are cancer

>Robin thread
>No one is even Dickposting
Disappointing.

Not enough homosexuals on Sup Forums today

When they forgot to make them the humorous foil to batman and turned them into edgelords themselves yeah

>not liking the best, the greatest, the most interesting Robin

timfags pls go your robin is the worst

>Dick becoming Nightwing
>Jason becoming Red Hood
>Tim becoming Red Robin

Every Robin with the exception of Damien works best as a story of why Batman is a fucking loner faggot who doesn't deserve friends/family/sidekicks

Dick becoming Nightwing had little to do with Bruce outside of the shitty Dixon retcon

6? Robin's and 1 Batman was the mistake. It's time to pass the bats it on. At least for a while.

...

and yet they're always there when he needs them

Well yeah. Aren't you there for your family regardless of how shitty they're being?

Proof that morrisonfags don't know shit about batman

No

Why do they get progressively shorter?

Jason and Tim are supposed to be fully grown.

fpbp

no

hurrrrrrr why put collar on cape

So you haven't read any of them, or are incapable of actually understanding the story beyond "lol epic batman punching joker"

Those designs are bretty good, but it doesn't make sense for Dick's cape to be black and yellow when Bruce only realized the mistake of the yellow cape after Jason got axed.

>y-y-ou stupid! you didn't read them!

bring some arguments next time or just stop posting
not that I expect anything from people that like Robin

This all-yellow cape looks absolutely fucking awful

Can someone please change the outer part to black so I can sleep in peace

>That greentext

He's right. You haven't read them, casual. Or you're baiting. Either way a faggot

tim drake is cancer ,,,

Definitely.

I offered better critical analysis than you did

>even more non answers

(You)

Scott Snyder pls .nobody likes you're boring..only white old men like you..

Scott Snyder says he is on Sup Forums..he is angry because because we hate him..

No, but having each companion be a Robin and not their own hero is stupid.

Scott Snyder All-Star Batman sucks...

Because they're not the same height?

But they are now,minus Damian I guess.

Jason has actually done shit outside of the Robin identity, but yes.
>Replacement Dicks
>Realized it was a mistake the first time and killed him off
>Still did it again

Jason should be taller

it looks cool.

I hate Robin.

I'm not sure why and I have never read a comic book but boy do I fucking hate Robin, every time he appears in anything I want that faggot to go away

The only thing Robin is good for is when he's dead so Batman has something other than his parents to be sad about

Tim Drake should just get retired tbqh. He was cool during Knightfall but they haven't really done shit with him ever since.

Well that is weird, I feel the same way about you.

>Batman is overpowered by stronger opponent because Batman used only his strength and not his wits
>Robin appears from off screen and saves Batman by distracting/blinding opponent
