      Damian is my favorite. He is just so brash and intentionally a terrible kid that he is funny to read, and it gives Batman a different dilemma, instead of teaching a Robin to fight, Batman has to teach the kid how to be a good kid as well as a hero who has morals.

    I'm sorry but i love damian 😭 i mean how else do you expect a kid to turn out under the absolutely RUTHLESS training of the league of assassins. like his mom literally ingrained in him to be stealth killer machine. Ever since he first became Robin, under Bruce's training he has found a family and he's learning to be, well, human. He's unlearning a lot of stuff he was taught in the league of assassins and trying to put his bloody past behind. He isn't at fault, his mom is. But he's slowly regaining his footing especially since lazurus island.

    While Dick is the bird who could fly from the nest without barely being taught, Jason was the bird who was wounded and fell from the nest but was still able to learn how to fly on his own. Also upon his return from death, Jason also trained withe league of assassins and aquired some level of mystical training and the ability to summon magical blades against enimies of pure evil. There was also his time with the outlaws and his very interesting relationship with Bizarro. I feel like Jason's main weakness is his estranged relationship with Batman because part of his greatest strengths as a character is being the broken mirror of his mentor, the fallen son, the black sheep. But because Batman could never bend his code to kill and even more so impose that rule on his family, he can never reconcile this fact for Jason as it does too much to progress the relationship and offers to much charachter growth for American Comics status quo. With the way they are currently written they have to stay at odds innorder for Jason to continue to shine as an anti hero/outlaw and Batman being resolute on not tolerating anyone of his family killing people.

      There is a flaw in your "not tolerating anyone of his family killing people" statement: Alfred "I do not subscribe to such niceties" Pennyworth.
      That said, I think Jason does better as a reminder that even the Batman can fail, and the friction it creates between the two is where their dynamic is at its best. With the other Robins, though, he has a much more relaxed relationship. They are like a group of siblings, where Jason and Damien are the heavies, Tim is the brain (though all of them are highly intelligent, they all recognize Tim as the smartest of them), and Dick is the older brother that provides the words of wisdom that help them all move forward.
      I could quite literally go for a comic just called "The Robins" just to watch them shine in their own right as their own mini-league.

    I think Dick and Tim are tied for first for different reasons. While I have a bias to say Dick is my favorite, Tim was there to purposely put himself in batman's life because he needed a hero as well. Dick was (un)lucky circumstance but still did a lot for Bruce as well.

  • @RomanSookar
    @RomanSookar 23 дні тому +12

    Dick was the best Robin because he was the first and laid the ground work for what any other Robin must be capable of in order to fill the role. What makes Dick and Jason so good is that they grew up and moved on from being children to adults with their own identities. Tim needs a growth arc from Red Robin into something else as he ages. And Damien is the current Robin, excessivley serious and thinking he knows everything, needing to learn how to be a child and that in turn teaches Bruce that he needs to relax. The mission does not always come first.

    Grayson will always be my favorite. He's the one who started it all. he is loved by other heroes, his Bat-family always needed him. Damian respected him. Bruce always thought of him as his oldest son, Alfred trusted him so much that he gave all his inheritance to Grayson, and he's also the leader of the Teen Titans. Even in the comics even the bad guys knows he's the first Robin.
    Todd was never a Robin, he is but the essence of him being a Robin wasn't there. but it was a good call that they killed him off because he's the most hated Robin back in the days. but people loved him as Red Hood.
    Drake though not my personal favorite but he is the true successor of Grayson as Robin. He's basically Grayson's Robin 2.0. Sadly nowadays comic book writers doesn't know what to do with his character anymore, it's like he's stuck where he is.
    Damian..... I like Damian as a character, but not as Robin. I understand why people doesn't like him, he's arrogant and annoying. But for me I think the writer really wants him to be the embodiment of a youngest in the Bat-family. Though I think it's not that bad, because there are plenty of rooms to improve in his character development. as his story progress he starts to become mature especially in the recent comics.
    My overall, I'm going with Grayson, Drake, Damian, and Todd.

    I don’t get the “Jason’s Robin career didn’t happen” mindset. He’s has a sh!t ton of stories as Robin and much more charecter than just angry boy. Jason at his best was an ally kid turned bookworm who valued life until life no longer valued him. He’s not just red rood or the Robin that died. Just imagine- if Jason wasn’t killed by the joker there is a good chance he would’ve gladly became Batman and that’s not a stretch of the imagination. I blame the New 52 for dumbing him down and the industry in general that kept him that way. Loved the video, but boy do I have my problems with modern day forever red hood with no reason to continue his non existent war on crime (nothing in a modern day red hood story means anything, Jason always goes back to being overly violent and canon back to status quo). It’s a rough time being a Jason Supporter

      I love Jason and think you put a lot of passion into your thought here, but I’ve gotta say I disagree, the New 52 was the best thing to ever happen to Jason his story with the outlaws is some of the best and most underrated of the entire new 52. For all of the faults and misguided decisions they made with that era, he got the best of it. Prior to that as red hood he was very 1 dimensional hell bent on getting revenge for his death (hush - Battle for the cowl). Jason is awesome but its his failure as Robin, and his indomitable spirit that makes him awesome. He was never going to be Batman but that doesn’t define him nor does he need it.

    Jason has so much potential as a character, due to the unique nature of how the writers decided his death. It's also cool how short his Robin run was compared to the other 3, which means that his character getting retconned works the best. It just sucks that writers absolutely have no idea what they're doing with his character nowadays.

Pair that with writers constantly butchering his character and making him the most unlikable piece of crap (injustice), most have a negative perception of him. Also, some of the best iterations of him (supersons, DCAU) are forgotten or have been discontinued.

Dick, Jason & Damian fell into the role of Robin through Batman’s guidance or recruitment. He works effectively as an individual & as team member. He’s shown to be adaptive & strategic.
    If there is anyone who is worthy of taking on the mantle of Batman, based on their skills, intelligence and state of mind, it’s Dick and Tim.

    Dick Grayson is the best Robin because he was the original and oldest. He learned most everything from Batman but was not a complete sidekick to him. Dick left Batman because he saw the brutality and darkness of Batman and swore to himself he would find a better way. So he became nightwing who is pretty much just a lighter version of Batman. I’m pretty sure in some comics, nightwing has beaten Batman in a fight too. And he is such a good big brother to Damian.

    Tim got me into comics and is my favorite comic character.
    The first comic I read with him had him and batman chasing some bandits into a zoo or something. This was the early days of tim's career although I didn't kno that, I was a kid and didn't kno there was a difference. Batman tells robin to stand lookout on some lookout point so he does, while he goes to chase the bandits. While tim is up there he sees a guy with a gun, who is pretty suicidal. Tim talks him down from hurting himself or anyone else. Batman stops the bandits, as tim helps the guy get the help he needs.
    And batman ends the comic with an internal monolog saying he knew he picked right with tim.
    The thing that made me a fan of Tim was that he didn't need a mask or a cape to be a hero, he simply helped someone who needed it. Ever since then, I've loved that character

    My favorite Robin and DC character is Jason, I think his character is the most interesting and contrasted from the other Robins. Especially since Batman thought Jason only had two options. Batman thought if he didn't take Jason in he'd be a criminal for the rest of his life, or he'd be Robin and learn how to grapple his personal issues and turn to the right path; which is also ultimately the same path that got him killed
    But I think the best AS a Robin is Dick Grayson, he held the mantle for the longest in universe, and he was honestly a combination of all the Robins after him. He was strong, but not the strongest, he was smart, but not the smartest, his combat skills were strong, but again not the strongest of the Robins in that field. I guess what he does have is speed and agility over all of them though, but overall I think he's the Jack of All Traits of the Robins. Also, really good videos guys, definitely gonna blow up in this comic book community frfr.

    For me I like Damian, mostly because I like the idea that he has to choose what who will will be the next Batman, or the demons head after his grand father dies. The other reason I like him is that he learns how to be a better person by the bat family Batman teaches him how to be a hero, Grayson teaches him how to be a regular kid, and Jon teaches him how to be a friend. Yes I know Jon is not part of the bat family but he was born in the bat cave so that kind of makes him a member of the bat family. All this being said, I’m a big fan of Damian character.

    Tim is the best Robin for Bruce, he’s the only one who’s seen as an equal when working as Robin. You see this at the end of crisis and right before new 52 where it was Bruce + Tim and dick + Damian. Not only that he established that status quo for Batman and Robin

    The minute you said Tim drake was the best robin, I cheered HAHA. He is my absolute fav of the four and of the robins in general ( if we're including batfam tho Cassandra Cain is right up there ;] ), He deserves the praise, especially with him being so shafted nowadays :' ) I do love DG for being the original and the Fun Robin if you will, and bounced off of Batman's personality very well, but Tim's deductive skills and introduction will always be my favorite of any robins and well fits the mantle~ Wonderful video btw !!!! 🤍

    Tim definitely is the best robin, but my favorite of all time has and always will be Jason Todd after he became the red hood he really serves as a dark reflection on the reality of the robin liange a tragic story told to robins as a warning of what could happen and he’s also a perfect fool for Bruce , Bruce has said numerous times that he doesn’t kill because he wouldn’t be able to stop himself but Jason can choose , Jason will make the hard choices the choices even Batman won’t do despite so much evidence that repeatedly showing , and telling bats that joker isn’t redeemable but he still tries it jason was failed and from that faulire I feel the best dynamic for any robin is Jason

    I used to hate damian for virtually the same reasons. But then I read his 2021 line and it made me look at him a bit differently. And his performance in Lazurus planet(which as a whole is a...interesting story. To say the least) where he's a group leader of sorts. They both showed growth and it was pretty cool to see in a character I otherwise thought would always stay the same.

    I feel like tim is bruce’s best robin. Tim is the robin who most wants to become batman, and has the best qualifications to be come the next batman. Plus he doesn’t have that same darkness bruce does since he grew up in a happy household and chose to chase down batman of his own accord rather than being chosen by bruce. I also feel like Damian and dick are a great legacy pairing for batman and robin. Bruce’s adoptive son, who is the best example of what bruce wants for his robins. He wants his robins to grow up and turn out better than him, happier than him, and dick did exactly that, outgrowing the need to be the next batman and eventually resenting the thought of him becoming the next batman, although he is most definitely the best and most well rounded candidate for the job. that paired up with damian who grew up being the antithesis to all that dick is. He had a dark upbringing where he was raised by the wrong people, eventually learning of who his father is and wanting to become the next batman even though he has none of the qualities for it. If dick wanted it he would be the best batman to have ever lived, and for a time he was, but because dick doesn’t want it and damian and jason have a warped sense of morality (and mortality in jason’s case ;)) tim is the one who wants it, and has all the qualities to become the next best batman. i feel like it would be cool to see that future lineup of tim as batman taking up the mantle after dick retires and seeing how the bat family has changed up until then. And then when tim retires or even god forbid dies wearing the cowl we see batman die for a time before terry comes and picks up the role after stumbling upon the wayne mansion many years since the death of batman, and now we get to see his rebirth. Holy shit i can yap, TLDR: Dick is the embodiment of what the robin mantle is meant for, and tim is the best robin for bruce. Dick is the best candidate for batman and will pick up the cowl one day when bruce retires or dies before tim is ready, and we will have dick with HIS best robin damian.

    Also, there were a few years' worth of pre-Crisis Jason stories when he was basically a carbon copy of Dick. For the Man Who Has Everything falls into this era. There is an interesting run as well where Nocturna almost becomes a pseudo-mother figure to him.The street orphan aspect was only introduced as a complete retcon after Crisis, and they killed him off quickly after that. So it is correct to say there are few canonical stories of Jason as Robin, but there are a lot more if you factor in the pre-Crisis version. Some of those stories directly contradict the post-Crisis story, but some could be weaved in with little fuss.

    DAMIAN WAYNE is a Shakespearean tragic hero. Reminiscent of two legendary epic characters :
    1. MORDRED Prince of Camelot torn between his father noble King Arthur ( Batman ) and his mother evil sorceress Morgana La Fey ( Talia ).
    2. OCTAVIAN the heir of the great Julius Caesar ( Ra's Al Ghul ) and the son of his grand niece
    the cunning Atia Of The Julii ( Talia ).
    For DAMIAN, the legacy of THE DEMON HEAD
    is stronger than the legacy of THE BAT. He will inherit The 3 LEAGUES : SHADOWS, LAZARUS AND ASSASSINS. Tim Drake can remain as Robin. Terry McGinnis will be Batman Beyond.

      Damian is despised by Tim fans since he took the Robin role from him.
      He is also hated for his bad potrayals in Injustice and the dcamu.
      There is also alot who just ignore his character development and focus on the first appearance where he was intentionally written to be unlikable.

  • @jalenchildress716
    @jalenchildress716 18 днів тому

    My personal order.
    Best Robin: Tim Drake
    Best Sidekick/partner: Dick Grayson
    Best after being Robin: Jason Todd
    Most likely to permanently claim the title of Batman: Damien Wayne.
    I also think it makes sense for Damien to be the worst Robin but still most likely to be the next Batman because Bruce was never a Robin in most iterations. So I think Damien not doing well work with let alone under someone is spot on with him being like his dad and why he’ll be the next Batman

    Y'all just agree with eachother, Damian isn't my favourite robin but him being different doesn't make him a terrible character, it gives him more opportunities to grow in new interesting ways compared to Tim the most basic ass robin going.
    The correct tier list for the robins is
    1) Dick
    2) Jason
    3) Damian
    4) Tim
    Tim is undoubtedly the worst robin, all he's got is his IQ, he's uninteresting compared to all the others he's just mid af bro basic ass robin like I'm not joking I genuinely don't like his character *I like all the other robins*

    In my head-canon, Tim _doesn't_ become the next Batman; no one hero is up to that task. _But:_ the team of Tim Drake, Stephanie Brown, and Cassandra Cain _can_ do it. The three of them have a sort of body, mind, and soul thing going on: Cassandra brings the brawn (she's fluent in body language the way others are fluent in English; and Bruce has said that she's the world's best fighter, better even than him); Tim brings the brains (Ra's al Ghul has called Tim “Detective”, a title that he previously reserved solely for Bruce; and when Tim finally gives up the Robin identity, I would love to see him become a sleuth-like character in the mold of the Question, calling himself simply “the Detective”); and Stephanie brings the heart (her contributions have always been understated; but she's always been the most grounded of the three, even more so than Tim; she's the most level-headed of the three - again, with Tim coming in a close second; _and_ she's the most determined: she spent _years_ trying to gain the respect of the Bat-family, with even _Tim_ wanting her to quit, but she stayed the course and ultimately earned a seat at the table through sheer tenacity. She's the distillation of the principle behind Tim's observation that Batman needs Robin.
