male ducks? At the end of Young Justice (2019), he quickly drops it and goes back to just being Robin.Īnti-Hero: Slips into this as he gets older, using a modified version of Scarecrow’s fears gas to take down rioting gang members and other things which make Stephanie uncomfortable and lead to Dick being able to talk her into spying on him.Īscended Fanboy: He was a massive fan of the original Dynamic Duo.Ītrocious Alias: During the Young Justice’s jaunt through the multiverse, Tim defeats his Earth-3 counterpart and takes his costume and name, becoming “Drake”. Which means his new name is apparently inspired by. Good to see Tim getting distracted with swooning.Īnimal-Themed Superbeing: In 2019 he adopted the codename of Drake, explicitly named after the bird. Both of these things very much work for him. He fails to stop a fight between his new ally, Pru, and the new Batgirl, Stephanie Brown, because he's too busy gawping at how much better Steph has gotten at fighting (and how good she looks in her costume). I mean, I respect this but I honestly would still put Jason>Tim in writing fics *shrug*.Īmazon Chaser: Picks this trope up in Red Robin. is ironic, because we usually expect it to be the other way around. During Battle for the Cowl Jason even admits that in a close quarters fight he has an advantage on Tim in reach, weight and strength but that without Jason having prior prep time Tim didn't he'd be outclassed in a straight fight due to Tim's training and fast thinking. He eventually even gains his father’s support and pride with the intervention of his stepmother though his dad would still prefer him to be safely off the streets.Īction Hero: A highly trained martial artist who uses those skills to achieve his goals. Tim does end up back in the suit after things in Gotham go rapidly downhill and the city needs him. >10-Minute Retirement: After his father learns that he is Robin and forbids him from continuing by threatening to expose Bruce Tim retires and adjusts quickly and happily back into civilian life even ignoring Bruce’s cruel Batman Gambit of putting his girlfriend in the suit and unfairly firing her after she broke a single rule in order to save his life. Thus, Tim Drake was born, and this time, the writers were careful to make him much less similar to Dick.

My favourite parts I guess:ĭespite the setback of Jason Todd's unpopularity and the killing-off that came along with it, Denny O'Neil was not convinced to give up on the character of Robin.
