![]() ![]() Īs Nightwing, his uniform now comprises a black unitard, black shoulder pads, boots and gloves. His hair had grown considerably longer and hangs past his ears. While sporting the mask, his eyes appeared completely white.īy age 19, Dick had grown considerably taller and more muscular, roughly the same height and build as Batman. To protect his identity, Robin wore either a black stylized domino mask (while in uniform) or sunglasses (while not) at all times. He wore a cape over his shoulders that was black on the outside and pale yellow on the inside. On the left side of his chest he had a yellow stylized "R" symbol in a black circle, and around his waist he wore a yellow utility belt with pouches for his various equipment. His original Robin uniform was comprised of a red vest held closed by three yellow rectangular fasteners on the front, black leggings, boots and gloves, all of which seemed to be made of a sort of protective body armor that still allowed him great mobility. His hair was left unkempt, hanging over his forehead. Physical appearanceĭick is a Caucasian male with short black hair and blue eyes.Īt 13, he was fairly short for his age and had a lean, well-toned build, reflecting his ability as an acrobat and skill in martial arts and gymnastics. When asked, he has commented that it was his superpower. A different side to him is what makes Wally call him a "dog"-he has had relationships with multiple girls, including Zatanna and Rocket, and all are still on good terms with him. While he had a moment of levity in congratulating Robin's success in his first mission as squad leader, Nightwing has reined in the wisecracks, and has become much more somber and serious. As Nightwing, he is more driven and focused-just like his mentor. Nightwingĭick has matured considerably over the intervening five years. Despite this, five years later he demonstrates these traits as team leader. But after sending his friends to their "deaths" in the simulation made by Miss Martian, he no longer desired to become like Batman, willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of the mission. He did want to be the leader and wanted to someday become Batman. Īfter the trauma of watching his teammates die in a simulation, Robin opened up to Black Canary during a therapy session. While Aqualad accepted the role, he stated that both he and the rest of the Team expected Robin to eventually take the mantle, due to the fact he was more suited for the job. ![]() He subsequently claimed that Aqualad would be a better leader for the Team. This unfortunately caused problems on their first mission against Kobra and Bane. However, this experience and his strong working relationship with Batman led him to mistakenly assume that the other members of the Team would understand and follow his plans without him explaining them. Robin initially considered himself to be the natural leader of the Team, citing his longer experience as a hero. During the Team's brief scuffle with Guardian, Robin took the liberty to activate the elevator to escape instead of fighting alongside his Team, had no qualms about Miss Martian delving into his mind to retrieve his memories, and took a break from running from Red Torpedo and Red Inferno to download the Cave's blueprints. He was also very pragmatic and preferred to think ahead. Robin also seemed to take great pleasure in creating back-formations, by removing prefixes from commonly-used words such as "disaster", "distraught", "overwhelmed" and "infiltrated" to create new words.ĭespite his child like behavior at times, Robin was a natural tactical thinker, often coming up with plans for the Team on the fly, and figuring out complex situations faster than many of his teammates. He had a particularly close friendship with Kid Flash, with whom he was able to joke and often treated like a brother of sorts. When simply interacting with his friends, Robin behaved in a jovial and oftentimes "little brother"-like role, in which he joked freely about his teammates, and even made fun of them when they made mistakes. Despite his immaturity, he could get along very well with people who were older than him, and tended to act more maturely whenever he was tasked with a certain level of responsibility. Robin was naturally a very lighthearted individual who seemed to take joy in nearly everything that he did. ![]() While his mentor was cold and very serious, Robin's demeanor was quite the opposite. Despite Batman's influence on Robin, the two have very contrasting personalities. By then he had been training under Batman's wing for four years. In his early days as Robin, despite being only 13, he was more experienced than his fellow sidekicks. ![]()
