![]() Red Robin is nearly killed by Ra's al Ghul when he confronts him, who, after seeing that his plan has failed, addresses Red Robin as "detective", a title of respect which he had reserved for Bruce Wayne alone. The third story arc, entitled "Collision", sees Red Robin enlisting the help of the new Batman ( Dick Grayson), Robin ( Damian Wayne), and Batgirl ( Stephanie Brown), in order to stop Ra's al Ghul from destroying the Wayne Family legacy, in which he (Red Robin) succeeds. Red Robin makes a shakey alliance with the League, and after they have dealt with the council, he destroy's the League's global computer system, earning the ire of Ra's al Ghul. The second story arc, Council of Spiders, deals with Red Robin having to face off against the Council of Spiders, a group of assassins who have made it their goal to destroy the League of Assassins. At the end of the first arc, Red Robin is stabbed by a villain named the Widower, leaving him and Prudence for dead and setting the stage for the second story arc. ![]() The last issue of the first arc alternates between a Red Robin and Batman fighting each other and Tim's discovery of Bruce Wayne's cave painting at the end of Final Crisis. Tim, however, deduces that Dick Grayson sent her to check on him and makes her leave him alone. Another flashback is shown, with Tim standing in front of Bruce Wayne's grave, when Wonder Girl approaches to console him and persuade him to return home. Red Robin #3 begins when Tim Drake attempts to steal what appears to be a fossilized Batarang while consulting with Ra's Al Ghul. Soon after, Red Robin comes into contact with Ra's Al Ghul, who is interested to learn what has happened to Bruce Wayne. Tim demonstrates his new fighting style and deduces the identities of the assassins before they disappear. The hotel room explodes from the shot, but Red Robin appears and attacks the three. The three assassins are in league with Ra's Al Ghul, who gives the order to assassinate Tim Drake. Outside his window, Z, Owens, and Prudence, watch and take aim at him with a sniper rifle. A flashback is shown of Tim Drake leaving Wayne Manor after losing the Robin mantle to Damian Wayne. After rescuing a hostage, he retires to his hotel room, frustrated. Tim Drake travels around the world, looking for clues to where Bruce Wayne lives. He is determined to find Bruce Wayne, who Tim is convinced is alive. With Bruce Wayne’s apparent death, Tim Drake takes on the costumed identity of Red Robin. The two did eventually tie-in in the overarching "Gotham Shall Be Judged" storyline, when Red Robin would end up facing Azrael's Angels of Death. ![]() ĭespite the backstories of both comics relying heavily on the League of Assassins and both stories converging at times, the initial run of Batman: Reborn did not have the two comics officially having a tie-in. Red Robin artist Ramon Bachs left Red Robin to take on Azrael with Fabian Nicieza, in turn he finished "The Grail" and gave Marcus to his debut in DC to draw the next four issue arc "Council of Spiders". In October 2010, Red Robin tied-in indirectly to the Azrael comic through the use of Ra's al Ghul, who was testing those involved with Bruce Wayne to become his ultimate warrior. Characters slated to appear in Red Robin other than Tim Drake include Gotham City reporter Vicki Vale and one of Bruce Wayne's longtime enemies Ra's al Ghul. Slated characters ĭC Comics Batman line editor Mike Marts revealed characters slated to appear in Red Robin by showing his "wall" of character thumbnails underneath the various Batman titles. Of all the characters in the so-called " Batman family", Drake (now using his legal name, Tim Wayne) is the only one that believes Bruce Wayne is still alive and leaves Gotham City to begin a global search for evidence supporting his theory and hope. The debut of the series follows the events of Batman R.I.P., Final Crisis, and Battle for the Cowl in which the original Batman, Bruce Wayne, apparently died at the hands of DC Comics villain Darkseid. Red Robin was an American comic book ongoing series, written by Chris Yost with art by Ramon Bachs, featuring former Robin Tim Drake under the identity of Red Robin.
