Robin Through The Ages: Part 2
I'm a 35 year old Canadian living in Ontario. I read comics, I love to draw and I collect comic art. I also teach karate, play hockey, and am a dad to 3 girls! My comic book passion lies with Batman and his pals with Nightwing taking a very close #2 favourite position. I began collecting comic art in 2013 and I have several commissions done by Ken Lashley and an amazing Francis Manapul Batman. As well I have sold a few of my own creations!
No. 4: Rise Of The Anti-Hero
In the post-Flashpoint continuity, Jason Todd/Red Hood, is the leader of a group known as The Outlaws a team which includes Starfire and Roy Harper as Arsenal. Instead of being trained by a variety of mentors he's been trained and also exiled by an order of warriors called the All Castle. His status is more in line with that of an anti-hero rather than the villain who returned as The Red Hood. He appears in Batman's Death Of The Family arc and is one of the Bat-family members the Joker has captured in order to torment Batman.
For dying in one of the stranger gimmicks in comics history and for returning to be a truly compelling character in his own right, Jason Todd is certainly an interesting part of the Robin mythos
Come back next week when we'll have a look at Time Drake and how he fits into Robin Through The Ages.
