Tim Drake, a bisexual DC character who goes by the moniker Robin, is one of the DC characters who goes by the name Robin. In today’s #6 of Batman: Urban Legends, the newest chapter of DC Comics’ ongoing Batman Family anthology book, Tim comes to this conclusion (SPOILERS follow). Writer Meghan Fitzmartin, illustrator Belén Ortega, colorist Alejandro Sánchez, and letterer Pat Brosseau collaborated on the tale “Sum of Our Parts,” which features Robin. In today’s third chapter, Robin saves Bernard from being sacrificed by the Chaos Monsters, bringing the tale to a close. Tim experiences a “lightbulb moment” while fighting with Bernard, and later decides to go on a date with Bernard in his civilian guise.

“Sum of Our Parts” comes to a close, but Tim’s tale is far from over. In December, Batman: Urban Legends #10 will continue his adventure.

Tim Drake fans are ecstatic with this news, as they’ve suspected for a long time that DC was building up to this moment for the character. Some of what they’re saying may be seen below.

For Tim Drake fans, this is shaping up to be a huge week. Tim will join the cast of HBO’s Max’s Titans live-action series, played by Jay Lycurgo, when the show returns for its third season on August 12th, in addition to his role in Batman: Urban Legends.
