For years Damian Wayne has held the DC Universe hostage, taking the spotlight from all the Robins who came before him. But this week, DC Comics is stealing back control with the release of Tim Drake: Robin #1.
Superstar writer Meghan Fitzmartin writes the first solo-Tim Drake title in over a decade. At Tim strikes out of his own, he finds himself caught up in a mystery which will put his friends and family in danger.
The cover gallery for issue #1 features an all-star roster of artists. Main cover art comes from Ricardo Lopez Ortiz with variant covers by Sweeny Boo, Dan Mora, Jamal Campbell, David Baldeon and Jorge Jimenez. You can see each of the covers in the gallery below:
DC’s official synopsis for the book teases that it’s time for another Robin to take centre stage alongside setting up a murder-mystery for the Boy Wonder to solve:
Step aside, Damian—the world’s favorite Robin has got this! That’s right, after years away, Tim Drake is taking center stage in a brand-spanking-new Robin series of his very own!
A mystery over a year in the making takes shape, as 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 as things go from bad to worse for the world’s oldest and canonically tallest Robin (no, I will not be fact-checking that). 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 boat? Fan-favorite writer Meghan Fitzmartin teams up with beloved Harley Quinn artist Riley Rossmo to define the next chapter in Tim’s life.
And as if that wasn’t enough, break out your skateboards and motorcycles cuz we’ve assembled a murderer’s row of artists to draw the 1990s’ One True Robin™ in his various looks from over the years!
