Huge news from DC Comics today. The publisher has announced that spinning off from his Pride 2022 special, Tim Drake will be headlining a brand new solo series set to launch in September.
Tim Drake: Robin, hitting stores on September 27, comes from writer Meghan Fitzmartin and fan-favorite artist Riley Rossmo (Harley Quinn). The story also ties in to current plots which feature in the Batman: Urban Myth series.
This kinetic, high-energy series pulls Tim center stage as a mystery over a year in the making takes shape. A new villain who’s been hounding Tim from afar decides to take things up close and personal, putting Bernard and everyone else Tim cares about in peril. All that and Tim finally carves out a corner of Gotham City just for himself, and sets up shop in his very own…murder-shack-houseboat?
Here’s a look at the various covers for issue #1.
DC has assembled a Rogues’ Gallery of artists to capture all of Tim’s iconic looks over the years, with a One Year Later Era variant by Jorge Jimenez, a 1:25 Debut Era variant by Sweeney Boo, a 1:50 Young Justice Era variant by Dan Mora, and a 1:100 Teen Titans Era variant by Jamal Campbell, with main cover by Ricardo López Ortiz.
Tim Drake fans can get caught up on the beginning of this story with the Tim Drake Pride Special, on sale now. And Damian fans needn’t worry; the youngest Wayne’s adventures as Robin will continue in Batman Vs. Robin, written by Mark Waid with art by Mahmud Asrar, on sale September 13.
