The Origin of Tim Drake as Robin By Stephen Vincent Kempton This almost 300 page Trade Paperback collects the seven comics directly leading up to Tim Drake's emergence as Robin. Plus the five issue Robin comic.The character of Tim Drake was created by Marv Wolfman and Pat Broderick in Batman #436 ( 1989). He was named after Batman director Tim Burton.Unlike most origins, Tim's was plotted very slowly over a period of over a year. He is mostly just a background character in Dectective and Batman until the four issue run ( collected here) Detective #618 through #621. This 1990 story "Rite of Passage" features Tim's bickering Rich Parents being abducted in Haiti. Batman sets out to rescue the parents, while Tim longingly looks at the Robin costume in glass case and works unraveling a different domestic crime case with his computer skills. Batman comes back unsuccessful after rescuing them they quickly drink some poisoned water. Janet Drake dies and Jack Drake is paralyzed.This very dark tale is brought to you by Scottish Writer Alan Grant and Norm Breyfogle. As it turns out Grant and Breyfogle successful run on Detective ended with this saga and they quickly jumped over to the better selling Batman comic.Then the story of Tim is continued in Batman #455 to #457 which is collected next. This Grant and Breyfogle three issue arc is called "Identity Crisis". Clever title. This story line features Vicky Vale as a reporter in trouble and the villain is The Scarecrow. Defying Bruce's orders Tim rescues The Batman and is finally rewarded by getting the Robin costume in the final panel.Speaking of the Robin costume this book has a nice bonus in the back of it , eight pages of possible costume designs for Robin. The winning design was created by Neal Adams.Next comes the five part Main Course the Robin mini-series that debuted a month later from Chuck Dixon and Tom Lyle. With beautiful covers by England's Brian Bolland.This globe hopping saga starts with Tim in France and ends in Hong Kong. The main bad guy looks a little dated today with Snake Tattoo on his bare chest and his mullet hair cut. We also are re-introduced to Lady Shiva , a character who goes back to Richard Dragon, Kung Fu Fighter #5 in 1975. We are also introduced to morally ambiguous Lynx.This is a great collection and I look forward to the follow up collections announced.My Highest Recommendation.

Brady As someone who purchased the original content of this book as it came out, I must say that this collection is well worth it, and it does justice to the material.However, as an intro/origin to the character of Tim Drake as Robin, it fails. The following stories should be read BEFORE the contents of "Robin vol 1: Reborn".Tim's story really begins in "Batman: Year Three", which is partly about Dick Grayson's origin. Tim's first appearance is a brief cameo in Batman #436, the first part of B:Y3 (#436-439). This story line has not been collected or reprinted in any form, but it is available digitally on Comixology.His next full appearance occurs in the story line "A Lonely Place of Dying", a five-part crossover between the Batman series (#440-442), and the New Titans series (#60-61). This story serves as Tim's proper introduction, and it serves as a reminder to the importance of why Batman 'needs' a Robin. "A Lonely Place of Dying" has been reprinted in the most current edition of the "Death in the Family" trade paperback, as well as the digital version on Amazon & Comixology. The individual issues are also available on Comixology.The final missing piece of Tim's origin as Robin is New Titans #65. Tim and Dick talk about what it means to be Bruce's partner, and to be Robin. Dick gives Tim an introductory class on detective work, to give him an idea of what he's in for. NT 65 has not been reprinted anywhere, but it is available digitally on Comixology.

When it comes to media (Movies, TV shows, Comics, etc.), one of the things I like about the late 80's to early 90's is the introduction of computers and networking technology. Although this is about Robin coming of age with the typical gritty, grungy style of this era, it has a nice sub-plot relating to hacking. I earned my techie bona fides during this time too before the Internet blew up and it was still an undergroundish culture centered around BBS's and actual technical know how. The sub-plot gave me a bonus warm fuzzy.The artwork and behavior of Batman/Robin still feels classical as opposed to today's Batman/Robin. The book is well priced and overall I am satisfied. Can't wait for volume 2!
