Uh, you do know what happened to Jason and Steph, right?

Anyways, the new Robin is called Tim Drake. Unlike the previous Robins Tim had a pretty average childhood (both parents alive, etc.). Tim is... Tim is intelligent, he's dedicated, and he's pretty much the perfect stalker material -_-;; See, this is what happened; when Tim was 3 his family and him went to the Circus, and obvsiouly, in The Great Design of things it was the fateful night when the Graysons died, leaving their son to be adopted by Bruce Wayne. Anyways, to make a story short, Tim get have a slight hero-worship of young Dick, the circus gets attacked, people die, and Tim see Batman save Dick. A few years later, Tim sees a news clip of Robin saving Batman, Robin performs the Quadruple Hop, and Tim connect the dot (OMF! Robin is Dick Grayson, and that would mean Bruce Wayne is Batman. BTW; Tim was like 9 at the times). Fom that point onwards, Tim becomes a bit obsessive about collecting news on Batman and Robin.

Then Robin disappears, (to become Nightwing), and a new Robin arrives (Jason), and after what happened to Jason, let's just say Batman kind of lose it a tad. And Tim, in his really scary way, came to the conclusion that Batman need Robin. Tim goes off to find Dick, when he eventually finds Dick, our Mr Grayson said no, but he'd help Tim become Robin (this is the really short version). Anyways, Batman eventually accepts Tim as the new Robin, sometime down the road Tim's mother dies from an attack, and Tim's dad gets re-married.

And serisouly, I could end it there but I'm attempting to pull you to the dark side. Tim's dad find out about Bruce Wayne being Batman and TIm being Robin, through a series of events (Tim's dad pulling a gun on Bruce Wayne), Tim quits being Robin, his girl-friend (Steph) takes over the position. More angst, after Steph, uh, yeah, Tim returns as Robin (yay! There was quite a bit of soul searching) And of course, more angst occurs, one of the best sequence of scenes, (I cry) Tim's father gets murdered, and omfg! Batman being comforting *wobbles* Anyways, to get the full affect, go here: http://www.livejournal.com/users/keelywolfe/287346.html

Tim is interesting because Tim lies to everyone, and he always seem more Batman than any of the other Robins. Hmm.
