Tim Drake is the third character to take on the mantle as Robin, the sidekick to Batman, and was first introduced in 1989. #Batmanurbanlegends #6 is already out and with it our last chapter of “Tim Drake: sum of our parts”. DC Comics published a comic book with a storyline where the Robin character comes out as bisexual after another male character asks him out on a date. In the most recent issue of Batman: Urban Legends, a new chapter for Tim Drake, also known as Robin.

Ortega tweeted a similar sentiment, and remarked that the series is her first with DC comics. 2 days ago &0183 &32 Although Deathstroke is primarily an antagonist for Batman‘s sidekick Robin/Nightwing and the Teen Titans, it’s easy to see how he would fit the bill for Affleck’s approach. Instead of Batman, it's his sidekick Robin's storyline that now has DC Comics fans excited. Forever grateful to be trusted with Tim Drake and his story and honored to work with the amazingly talented and 💗 /h2BMotX0Iq You are so incredibly loved and important and seen. Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson in two side-by-side beds. My goal in writing has been and will always be to show just how much God loves you. Several characters in the Modern Age Batman comic books are expressly gay, lesbian, or bisexual. Fitzmartin responded to the support, saying that her “goal in writing has been and will always be to show just how much God loves you.”

Fans have taken to Twitter to express their excitement about the reveal and gratitude for the creators, writer Meghan Fitzmartin, artist Belén Ortega, colorist Alejandro Sánchez and letterer Pat Brosseau. Although Robin is best known as Batman's sidekick, the Robins have also been members of the superhero groups the Teen Titans (with the original Robin, Dick Grayson, as a founding member and the latter group's leader) and Young Justice. Tim came to this realization in Tuesday's Batman: Urban Legends 6, the newest installment. This makes Tim Drake’s Robin a part of a small group of canonically LGBTQ+ characters in the DC Comics universe, joining Kate Kane’s Catwoman, Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, Renee Montoya, Alan Scott the Green Lantern and a few other supporting characters. Tim Drake, the third DC Comics character to take up the mantle of Batman's sidekick, Robin, is bisexual. Tim Drake finally coming out is so inspiring, DC never wanted a queer Robin but after years and years of campaigning from writers and fans it finally happenedĪ big thank you to Meghan Fitzmartin, Belén Ortega and Alejandro Sánchez for making this moment so beautiful ❤️ /xb5YugEYd9
