Robin Was Abused | The New Batman Adventures

Описание: One of the most compelling aspects of Batman: The Animated Series and The New Batman Adventures is how they reimagined iconic DC characters. Today, we take a look into the DCAU version of Tim Drake—arguably one of the most controversial interpretations of Robin.

Unlike his comic counterpart, this Tim Drake has more in common with Jason Todd, the second Robin, whose tragic story left an indelible mark on Batman’s world. From his introduction in The New Batman Adventures to the harrowing events of Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker, this video explores Tim’s transformation, his tragic losses, and his ultimate redemption.

We’ll analyze key episodes like "Sins of the Father," "Growing Pains," and "Return of the Joker," unraveling how Tim’s story intertwines with Batman’s darkest fears and the Joker’s most twisted schemes. Plus, we’ll compare his DCAU character to his comic book origins, examining how the creative team crafted a Robin that’s both heartbreaking and heroic.

If you’re a fan of the DCAU, Batman, or character deep dives, this is the video for you!
